Polycom Lync Phones new simplified config


Polycoms UCS 4.1.0 software release utilises a completely new, and streamlined Provisioning Process. The Polycom server-based provisioning process is still available for large deployments in which automation is required, but for SME deployments there is a new Out of the Box (OOBE) experience that is greatly simplified over the previous process. For most environments there is no longer any requirement to use the XML configuration files.
 
The new version is capable of downloading a private CA root certificate used by the Lync Server in the same fashion that the existing Lync Phone Edition devices operate and requires that Option 43 for DHCP be properly configured for the target Lync environment and the phones have access to the Lync Server Certificate Provisioning web service.To confirm the currently installed software for your Polycom IP Phone either check on the phone itself, user underneath or access the phone’s web browser interface. To check the software version from the device interface press the physical Home button and then tap the following menu items: Settings > Status > Platform > Application > Main.

This process is now much more inline with provision of Lync Phone Edition devices such as the Polycom CX600.
