- In the Assign Extension
section, assign an extension to the IP phone.Note: If your desired extension is not listed in the drop-down list, it indicates that the extension has been associated with an IP phone or gateway.
- To release the extension from the associated IP phone or gateway, see Release an Extension from a Provisioned IP Phone/Gateway.
- To assign the extension to the phone without releasing it from the previously associated device, you can configure the concurrent registration setting for the extension, as the PBX only allows an extension to register with one SIP endpoint by default.
- Click Save.
- Step 3. Configure DHCP option 66 on DHCP server
-
In the subnet where the IP phone is deployed, use the generated provisioning link to configure option 66 on the DHCP Server.
- On PBX web portal, copy the provisioning link from the phone's
detail page.
- On the DHCP server, set up option 66 with the
provisioning link.
In this example, the configuration on a router's DHCP server is shown below.
- On PBX web portal, copy the provisioning link from the phone's
detail page.
- Result
-
Note: Some IP phones will reboot automatically. If not, you need to manually reboot the phone to make the configurations take effect.
- After the IP phone is rebooted, it gets an IP address from the DHCP server, downloads the configurations from the PBX via the provisioning link, and applies the settings automatically.
- The extension is successfully registered on the IP phone. You can
check the registration status on on the PBX web portal.
