Auto Provisioning
1.1 Auto Provisioning Overview
This document is for administrators who need to configure a large number of ZyXEL’s VoIP
ATAs and IADs. Auto provisioning has the VoIP devices periodically download a
configuration text file from a server that you set up and maintain. The VoIP device changes its
configuration to match the configuration file (if they are different). At the time of writing, you
can use TFTP, HTTP or HTTPS
1
protocol for auto provisioning.
The following sections introduce two scenarios for using auto provisioning with ZyXEL’s
VoIP ATAs and IADs. The first uses a provisioning utility and the second uses an auto
provisioning server.
1.2 Provisioning Utility Scenario
For smaller-scale deployments, you can manually use the ZyXEL configuration generator
provisioning utility to generate and encrypt a batch of configuration files. Then store the
configuration files on a server for the ZyXEL Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) VoIP
devices to automatically download and use.

HTTPS support is optional and is not supported in the standard release.
