Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 D Phone

Downloading New Software to the Phone

To download the new Polycom UC Software to the phone, you need to:

Extract all files from the distribution zip file as you did in Setting Up the Provisioning Server on page 2-11.

Verify that the configuration files you created for Deploying Phones From the Provisioning Server on page 2-13will work with the new UC Software. New and changed configuration parameters are described in the Release Notes.

Follow the instructions in Deploying Phones From the Provisioning Server to download the new UC Software; you will not need to change the master configuration files unless you change the names of the per-phone or application configuration files.

Deploying the Phones Using a Polycom CMA System

 

You can provision your organization’s Polycom VVX 1500 D phones and

 

update the software using a Polycom CMA system. Refer to the latest Release

 

Notes for Polycom UC Software and Polycom CMA for specific compatibility

 

requirements and recommendations.

 

You can also provision your organization’s VVX 1500 phones in a hybrid

 

model, using both Polycom CMA and a provisioning server. In such a

 

situation, Polycom CMA has a higher priority. When the phone reboots, it will

 

check the Polycom CMA system first for new software, and then checks the

 

provisioning server for configuration files and directories to upload if directed

 

to do so (by setting the CMA mode to Disable, refer to Disabling Provisioning

 

by a Polycom CMA System on page 2-19).

Note

 

Polycom CMA requires that the management application be installed on the same

 

network as your VVX 1500 phones are connected.

 

 

In dynamic management mode, the Polycom CMA system can do the following:

Configure VVX 1500 D phones using an automatic provisioning service

Register VVX 1500 D phones with a standard-based presence service, so that presence states are shared with Polycom CMA contacts

Provide VVX 1500 D phones with automatic software updates
