Using a Provisioning Service
Provisioning services, such as Poly Lens or Poly Clariti Manager, enable you to deploy enterprise-wide configurations to
your systems.
You can use a provisioning service to perform the following actions with your system and some of its paired devices:
• Automatically configure settings
• Automatically update software
• Monitor health and status
Remember the following when you register your system to a provisioning service:
• Provisioned settings are read-only in the system web interface. Settings that are dependent on provisioned values are
read-only or unavailable.
• The system automatically checks for and runs software updates every time it restarts and at an interval set by the
service.
• If a registered system fails to detect the service when it restarts or checks for updates, an alert displays on System
Status.
• If the system loses registration with the service, it continues to use the most recent configuration it received.
• The system looks for provisioning options during initial system setup in the following order: Zero Touch Onboarding,
Poly Lens, then DHCP. If the system doesn’t find provisioning information for an option, it automatically goes to the
next one.
Note: To maintain call connection, you can't configure provisioning settings during a call.
For a list of configuration parameters, see the Poly VideoOS Configuration Parameters Reference Guide on the Poly
Documentation Library.
Register the System with Poly Clariti Manager Provisioning Service
Before you can provision a G7500 and Studio X series system, you must register it with a provisioning service.
Note: Make sure to configure your provisioning server (for example, Poly Clariti Manager) ahead of time so that it
recognizes and works with your endpoint.
For information on how to provision your system with Poly Clariti Manager, see the Poly Clariti Manager Administrator
Guide.
