[Asterisk-Users] auto provision of IP501 polycom

[Mike Pollitt]

In dhcpd.conf:

 

option tftp-server-name "x.x.x.x"

 

Yes, I know it says tftp but actually this is the entry used for ftp as
well.

 

Also, for reasons known only to your chosen deity, Polycom have chosen to
use a mixed-case username for the default ftp user. Not all FTP servers will
accommodate this.

Has anyone been able to get the IP501 to discover the FTP server IP address
(via dhcp or dns) and download 100% of the config from a provisioning
server?

 

We are still having to touch each unit to enter the ftp server address and
password, as well as set many of the options that will not take from the
config file.

 

Have a sample config file you are willing to share?

 

What is required in the way of dhcp options or dns entries to get the
polycom to discover the ftp boot server?

 

What about changing default passwords via ftp?
