VSP716A Configuration Methods
You can configure the VSP716A using one of the following methods:
From the VSP716A itself, using the menus. The VSP716A menus are best suited
to configuring a few settings, perhaps after the initial setup has been done. For
administrators, the settings available on the VSP716A menus include network
settings, account settings, and provisioning settings. See
. Many of the settings accessible on the VSP716A are
most useful for end users. Through the menu, they can customize the screen
appearance, sounds, and manage calls. For more information, see the VSP716A
User Guide.
The Web User Interface, or WebUI, which you access using your Internet browser.
See
. The browser-based interface is easy to
navigate and best suited to configuring a large number of VSP716A settings at
once. The WebUI gives you access to every setting required for configuring a
single device. You can enter service provider account settings on the WebUI, and
set up provisioning, which will allow you to automatically and remotely update the
VSP716A after initial configuration.
Provisioning using configuration files. Working with configuration files is the best
way to configure multiple phones. There are several methods available to enable
the VSP716A to locate and upload the configuration file. For example, you can
enable the VSP716A, when it starts up or reboots, to check for the presence of a
configuration file on a provisioning server. If the configuration file is new or has
been modified in any way, the VSP716A automatically downloads the file and
applies the new settings. For more information, see
Configuration Files” on page 116
