There are various ways in which the telephones can be provisioned for the telephone system:
Create an unprovisioned SIP device
An unprovisioned SIP device is a non-automatically configurable device for which the configuration of the telephone system must be installed manually. The device can be set up independently by a partner without the help of the technical consultant. NFON provides conceptual instructions for this purpose.
For configuration instructions, see Administration Portal documentation.
Provision an unprovisioned SIP device via the technical consultant (subject to a fee)
The partner creates a list of all extensions including the SIP credentials with the help of an Excel spreadsheet. The technical consultant will then create a config file with all the necessary data, which can be imported on site.
In this case, the configuration and commissioning, as well as provisioning, is the sole responsibility of the executing partner.
Provisioning is done via web-based management (WBM) and a file upload.
An automated upload, via a proprietary tool and a TFTP server, is profitable via the partner if the number of rooms exceeds 50. NFON provides instructions.
Creating any unprovisioned SIP devices
In this case, the configuration and commissioning, as well as provisioning, is the sole responsibility of the executing partner.
Set up analogue devices
It is possible to connect analogue hotel telephones to the telephone system via a Patton or Grandstream gateway. The implementing partner takes the responsibility for configuring and commissioning.
