[asterisk-users] problems with Polycom 500 boot up

Dear Dean,

The difference between these two phones is simply that the IP 501  
phone has extra memory on it which was added to the phone ONLY to  
provide HTTPS provisioning options. (this is what Polycom told us  
anyways)

Funny thing is, not many people know how to use the HTTPS options  
because it's not well documented by the manufacturer supposedly.  
*shakes head* I've been working pretty closely with Polycom right now  
to get this FINALLY documented, hopefully well. We'll post it to our  
knowledge-bases when I get something put together on this topic (no  
idea when this will happen yet since I'm waiting on Polycom engineers  
to do some more in-lab testing).
