asterisk users - Jul 2006 - Sip phone settings set when user registers

Hi all !
I am planing to set up around 20 SIP Phones which will be purchased in
one bunch, I am more or
less free of choice.
I wonder if anyone knows sip phones which allow configuration upon
login. The following scenario:
User logs into any phone and the settings of the phone are always the
same. Meaning individual key
assignement is always the same.

Is this possible with asterisk in combination which any phone or do I
require special phones.


Thanks for any advices
Nik

Hi Nik,

I like the Grandstream Budge Tone 102 VoIP Phones which you can find here:

and here:

Also, the GXP-2000 is a very popular model too, although once you 
consider the capabilities of Asterisk the only real advantage this unit 
has over the others (even in an office environment), is the Power over 
Ethernet (PoE) feature:

Anyway I would be more interested in a method to configure the key 
assignements upon login with asterisk ?? any ideas how to do that ?

Do you mean :

1. Without user logins, phones are unusable ? Or do you plan to offer
default services (local calls for instance) for unidentifed users ? I'm not
sure many phones offer special keys for login-logout.

2. What should happen when users change phones settings ? Shall these
changes be saved somehow (during logoffs ?) and somewhere for latter reuse ?
That implies phone config should be portable from one phone to another. That
doesn't seem easy if phones are installed in different locations.
