Reference13r1:Concept Offline Provisioning
Overview
In some cases or environments the PBX, Gateways and phones do not have internet access. In this case the service.innovaphone.com will not reachable and a provisoning of new devices is not possible.
In order to be able to provision devices without internet access, there is an option to provide the service itself in the local environment.
Requirements
- Version 13r1 (Phone and PBX)
- running App Platform
How it works
- The client (eg. Phone) which is waiting for a provisioning logs in to the local provisioning service which is located on a gateway.
- As soon as the user adds a new device via the User App, a new code is fetched from the local provisioning system.
- When the code is entered in the phone, the client sends the code to the local provisioning system.
- If the code is valid, the client will recieve some configuration about the environment and connect himself to the Devices App
This is the same flow like we use it on the regular provisoning with internet access.
Configuration
Provisioning System
There is no need to activate the Provisioning System on a Gateway. It is still there and you can use it on everey Gateway.
Devices APP
You should need to configure your own Provisioning Service in the Devices App
- Open the Devices APP from your myApps Launcher
- Select the desired domain from the list and use the tab edit
- Here you can insert you own Provisioning URL:
https://pbx.domain.tld/INSTALL/get-provisioning-code.htm
- Here you can insert you own Provisioning URL:
Client Setup
You must need to tell the Client, that he should not try to connect to the global Provisioning System. Instead he must connect to your local System.
Set the Update URL in the Client to: https://pbx.domain.tld/INSTALL/provisioning.htm?mac=#m&provisioning-code=#p&localip=#i
Some ways to distribute the Update URL to multiple all Clients:
- Use a local DHCP Server with vendor options
- Use my.innovaphone.com redirection (works only if the client is able to connect to https://config.innovaphone.com)
