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

Hello

Just use Snom or grandstream phones. They can be provisioned very easily via
HTTP. You just setup a config URL on the phones, and they get their
configurations from there. If you want to get more advanced, they can send along
their MAC address, and thereby enabling you to custom config them directly from
a central application, based on the phones MAC address.

The snom phones can even be instructed to download a configuration from a URL
via DHCP.

Emne: [asterisk-users] 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

This is true, but making a change to the configuration (pushing a
change) based on a user action is much harder, or even impossible.

We have compromised by having the phones configured once at boot, and
having Asterisk change the behaviour "under the hood" when the user
requests it. Not tidy, but the end result works.

Cheers,
