Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 D Phone

Deploying Phones From the Provisioning Server

Warning

As of UC software 3.3.0, you only need to configure the parameters that do not

 

match their “built-in” defaults.

 

Certain configuration settings in Polycom UC Software 3.3.0 release are not

 

backward compatible to the previous configuration files (sip.cfg and phone1.cfg).

 

Review all configuration files used to configure the VVX 1500 D phones for previous

 

software releases.

 

For more information, refer to Configuration Files on page A-1.

 

 

 

You can create two configuration files for each phone and one configuration

 

file for all phones in your installation or you can put all configuration

 

parameters into one file. The example below shows one configuration file.

 

For more information on why to create another configuration file, refer to the

 

“Configuration File Management on Polycom VVX 1500 D Phones” white

 

paper at

 

http://www.polycom.com/global/documents/support/technical/products

 

/voice/white_paper_configuration_file_management_on_soundpoint_ip_ph

 

ones.pdf .

Note

 

Use an XML editor to create/edit the configuration files. In this way, all configuration

 

files that you create will be valid XML files.

 

If the configuration files are not valid, they will not load on the phone. An error

 

message will be logged to the provisioning server.

 

 

 

For more detailed information on specific parameters in configuration files,

 

refer to Configuration Files on page A-1.

 

Deploy Polycom VVX 1500 D phones by:

 

1. Creating a Phone Configuration File
