Provisioning Overview
Cisco IP Phones are intended for high-volume deployments by VoIP service providers to customers in home,
business, or enterprise environments. Hence, provisioning the phone via remote management and configuration
ensures the proper operation of the phone at the customer site.
The following features support this customized, ongoing configuration:
•
Reliable remote control of the phone
•
Encryption of the communication that controls the phone
•
Streamlined endpoint account binding
Phones can be provisioned to download configuration profiles or updated firmware from a remote server.
Downloads can happen when the phones are connected to a network, when they are powered up, and at set
intervals. Provisioning is typically part of high-volume, Voice-over-IP (VoIP) deployments common to service
providers. Configuration profiles or updated firmware are transferred to the device using TFTP, HTTP, or
HTTPS.
