can specify the transport protocol in the provisioning server address, for example, http://xxxxxxx.
If not specified, the TFTP protocol is used. The provisioning server address can be IP address,
domain name or URL. If a user name and password are specified as part of the provisioning
server address, for example, http://user:pwd@/server/dir, they will be used only if the server
supports them.
Note
Setting up the Provisioning Server
The provisioning server can be on the local LAN or anywhere on the Internet. Use the following
procedure as a recommendation if this is your first provisioning server setup. For more
information on how to set up a provisioning server, refer to
Yealink_Skype_for_Business_HD_IP_Phones_Auto_Provisioning_Guide
To set up the provisioning server:
1.
Install a provisioning server application or locate a suitable existing server.
2.
Create an account and home directory.
3.
Set security permissions for the account.
4.
Create configuration files and edit them as desired.
5.
Copy the configuration files and resource files to the provisioning server.
For more information on how to deploy Skype for Business phones using configuration files,
refer to
Deploying Phones from the Provisioning Server
Note
Deploying Phones from the Provisioning Server
The parameters in the new downloaded configuration files will override the duplicate
parameters in files downloaded earlier. During auto provisioning, Skype for Business phones
download the common configuration file first, and then the MAC-Oriented file. Therefore any
parameter in the MAC-Oriented configuration file will override the same one in the common
configuration file.
Typically all phones are configured with the same server account, but the server account provides
a means of conveniently partitioning the configuration. Give each account a unique home
directory on the server and change the configuration on a per-line basis.
A URL should contain forward slashes instead of back slashes and should not contain spaces.
Escape characters are not supported.
If a user name and password are not specified as part of the provisioning server address, the User
Name and Password of the provisioning server configured on the Skype for Business phone will
be used.
There are two types of FTP methods—active and passive. Skype for Business phones are not
compatible with active FTP.
