Hello, everyone!! I've been thinking of creating step-by-step guides about Microsoft, Zoom, Google and UC stuff, but I noticed I need to speak about Poly Lens first. If you ask me... It helps us enable several features, it's a life saver tool, so let's talk about Lens!!!
As I mentioned on How to Provision Poly Studio X / G7500 with Lens, and How to Provision Poly Studio USB / R30 with Lens, there are different options to onboard devices to Lens, two of them are as follows:
- Onboard a device using Provisioning: Register a device one at a time.
- Onboard all devices via DHCP Auto Discovery: DHCP automatically registers devices to a provisioning server.
Poly CCX, Trio, VVX and Edge E phones are running UC software, now called Poly Voice Operating System (PVOS), therefore, you can onboard them to Lens in the same way, and today, I'd like to show you how it can be done.
Provisioning Poly Phones
Method 1: Web UI and Provisioning Credentials
Go to lens.poly.com and sign in with your admin or device manager account, then click on Manage > Register Device.
Select Visit Provisioning.
You'll need to copy your provisioning credentials and paste them on your phone, so go to your phone's Web UI.
Login as Admin, enter the password and click Submit.
List of Poly phone's default password:
- VVX: 456
- Trio: 456
- CCX: 456
- Edge E: 456
Hover over settings and click Provisioning Server.
Set Server type to HTTPS, copy your provisioning credentials and paste on your phone's Web UI. Once pasted, click on Save button.
Your phone will restart itself, after that you will see it on Lens inventory.
Method 2: DHCP
We
manually provisioned a phone, but in case you want to
automatically register it, go for DHCP option. The phones will get the provisioning server from your DHCP, and commonly option 66, 160 or 161 are used, however, it depends on your network environment.
DHCP Format
https://<ServerUser>:<Password>@<ProvisioningServerAddressURL>
Naming a device and Assigning it to a Site
Name your device and assign it to a Site and Room by clicking on it and Edit.
Fill out the blanks and select Save Changes.
Note: You must have created sites and rooms previously.
