Provisioning Basics The Provisioning Tab and its fields are for service provider use only and are not needed in non-SP deployments. This chapter discusses: • Provisioning Capabilities, page 134 • IP Phone Configuration Profiles, page 136 • Sample Configuration File, page 138 •...
Provisioning Basics Provisioning Capabilities Provisioning Capabilities The Cisco IP phones provide for secure provisioning and remote upgrade. Provisioning is achieved through configuration profiles transferred to the device via TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS. The Cisco IP phones can be configured to automatically resync their internal configuration state to a remote profile periodically and on power up.
Page 146
Provisioning Basics Provisioning Capabilities To provision from the phone: SPA 50XG: Press Setup, then scroll to Profile Rule. STEP 1 Enter the profile rule using the following format, then press the Resync soft button. STEP 2 protocol://server[:port]/profile_pathname For example: tftp://192.168.1.5/spa504.cfg If no protocol is specified, TFTP is assumed.

STEP 3 Enter the profile rule using the following format, then press the Resync soft button. STEP 4 protocol://server[:port]/profile_pathname For example:...
Provisioning Basics IP Phone Configuration Profiles The names of parameters in XML profiles can generally be inferred from the Cisco IP phones configuration web pages, by substituting underscores (_) for spaces and other control characters. Further, to distinguish between Lines 1, 2, 3, and 4, corresponding parameter names are augmented by the strings _1_, _2_, _3_, and _4_.
Provisioning Basics Sample Configuration File General Purpose Parameters These are configured in the General Purpose Parameters section of the Provisioning tab. These parameters can be used as variables in provisioning and upgrade rules. They are referenced by prepending the variable name with a ‘$’ character, such as $GPP_A.
Provisioning Basics Upgrading, Resyncing, and Rebooting Phones Upgrading, Resyncing, and Rebooting Phones Cisco IP phones support secure remote provisioning and firmware upgrades. You can generate configuration profiles using common, open-source tools that integrate with service provider provisioning systems. Supported transport protocols include TFTP, HTTP, and HTTPS with client certificates.
Provisioning Basics Upgrading, Resyncing, and Rebooting Phones • Port is the port of the protocol being used (for example, 69 for TFTP or 80 for HTTP). • Firmware-path defaults to /spa.bin (for example, http://192. 1 68.2.217/ admin/upgrade?tftp://192. 1 68.2.251/spa.bin) for SPA phones and / wip310.img for the WIP310.
Provisioning Basics Redundant Provisioning Servers • Port defaults to: 69 for TFTP 80 for HTTP 443 for HTTPS • Profile-path defaults to the path to the new resync profile (for example, http://192. 1 68.2.217admin/resync?tftp://192. 1 68.2.251/spaconf.cfg). Rebooting a Phone You can remotely reboot a Cisco IP phone if needed. Use the following syntax to reboot a phone: http://phone-ip-address/admin/reboot Redundant Provisioning Servers...
Provisioning Basics Automatic In-House Preprovisioning In a retail distribution model, a customer purchases a Cisco voice endpoint device, and subsequently subscribes to a particular service. The customer first signs on to the service and establishes a VoIP account, possibly through an online portal. Subsequently, the customer binds the particular device to the assigned service account.
Provisioning Basics Configuration Access Control preprovision phones. Any new Cisco IP phone connected to this LAN automatically resyncs to the local TFTP server, initializing its internal state in preparation for deployment. Among other parameters, this preprovisioning step configures the URL of the Cisco IP phone provisioning server. Subsequently, when a new customer signs up for service, the preprovisioned Cisco IP phone can be simply bar-code scanned, to record its MAC address or serial number, before being shipped to the customer.
Provisioning Basics Using HTTPS To use HTTPS with Cisco IP phones, you must generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and submit it to Cisco. The Cisco IP phone generates a certificate for installation on the provisioning server that is accepted by Cisco IP phones when they seek to establish an HTTPS connection with the provisioning server.
Contact a Cisco support person who will work with you on the certificate process. STEP 1 If you are not working with a specific support person, you can email your request to linksys-certadmin@cisco.com.) Generate a private key that will be used in a CSR (Certificate Signing Request). STEP 2 This key is private and you do not need to provide this key to Cisco support.
