<DIV><SPAN class=783273116-24062003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Yeah,
we tested this. Polycom was a real butt about it too. They have
sealed some agreements with vendors that sell their phones with their
proprietary systems. While Polycom admits the phone does "SIP" they will
not disclose any info about configuring it and the vendors phone systems that
configure it have system specific firmware and xml config files. So, my
take on the Polycom is that they say "SIP" but it is not really usable by
anything but their partners phone systems.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

advice is don't waste your time.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to configure Asterisk to use a
Polycom SoundPoint IP 500 phone. Does anyone know where I can get the
software and configuration file for this phone. I spoke to Polycom
support and they say it's up to the SIP vendor to provide
this.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
