Example Configuration: Setting the Base Profile to Lync
This example configuration shows you how to set the phone’s Base Profile to Lync using the phone’s
interface. For instructions on all methods you can use to provision CX5500 systems with Lync Server,
including tips on how to quickly provision multiple phones to save time, see the Polycom Lync
Provisioning Guide.
When you set the phone Base Profile to Lync you are provisioning the phone with the minimum number
of parameters required to register a CX5500 system with Lync Sever 2010. However, if your
organization’s security procedures don’t allow you to enter user IDs and password in cleartext to
configuration files set reg.x.auth.useLoginCredentials to 1 and instruct each user to enter their
credentials through the phone’s user interface—the Login Credential screen.
To set the Base Profile to Lync:
1 Tap Settings > Advanced.
2 Enter the password (default 456) and press Enter.
3 Tap Administration Settings > Network Configuration and scroll to Base Profile.
