○ If you set the polling period to be greater than one day with the period rounded up to the nearest
day, the phone polls on a random day based on the phone’s MAC address, and within a random
time set by the start and end polling time.
For example:
● If prov.polling.mode is set to rel and prov.polling.period is set to 7200, the phone polls
every two hours.
● If prov.polling.mode is set to abs and prov.polling.timeRandomEnd is set to 04:00, the
phone polls at 4am every day.
● If prov.polling.mode is set to random, prov.polling.period is set to 604800 (7 days),
prov.polling.time is set to 01:00, prov.polling.timeRandomEnd is set to 05:00, and you
have 25 phones, a random subset of those 25 phones, as determined by the MAC address, will poll
randomly between 1am and 5am every day.
● If prov.polling.mode is set to abs and prov.polling.period is set to 2328000, the phone
polls every 20 days.
