You probably have not setup central provisioning for your Polycom phones. 
I am guessing you are configuring them from their (horribly crappy) web 
interface.  Although this kind of works, you will not be able to unleash 
the true power of your phones without setting up central provisioning. 
Worse you may be running an old version of the firmware, which may have 
problems.

This involves getting the firmware and XML templates from Polycom, which 
will include the file sip.cfg.  You will have to unpack these files on a 
TFTP or HTTP server, create XML files for each phone, and point the phone 
to the server to pick it up.  There are numerous "howtos" on the web to 
set this up.  Time for Google!
