Matrix PRASAR UCS System Manual 267
Configuring Standard SIP Phones
You can connect any of the following as SIP Extensions of PRASAR UCS:
• Matrix SPARSH VP248
• Matrix SPARSH VP110
• Matrix SPARSH VP710
• Any Standard SIP Phone
• Any SIP-enabled device including PC based Soft-phone
• Analog Phone Adapter
For detailed product information and operational instructions, refer to the product documentation supplied
with the Standard SIP Phone/device.
PRASAR UCS supports two separate methods of Provisioning the Standard SIP Phones. These two methods are:
• Manual Provisioning: In Manual Provisioning, the user must configure the required parameters of the
Standard SIP Phone manually. So, it is not a simple plug-and-play solution for mass deployment, as it
requires intervention of authorized technical personnel for phone configuration. To configure Standard SIP
Phones using this method, see “Configuring Standard SIP Phones using Manual Provisioning”.
• Auto Provisioning: In Auto Provisioning, the Standard SIP Phone gets configured automatically by
retrieving the required configuration file from PRASAR UCS. The configuration file contains pre-
programmed values of necessary parameters required by the Standard SIP Phone. Thus, it eliminates the
necessity of manually configuring the Standard SIP Phone parameters. When the Standard SIP Phone
starts, it then gets configured automatically. Here, PRASAR UCS acts as the Auto Provisioning Server by
providing the configuration file to the Standard SIP Phones. Auto Provisioning enables mass deployment
of Standard SIP Phones and provides a plug-and-play solution for them. To configure Standard SIP
Phones using this method, see “Configuring Standard SIP Phones using Auto Provisioning”.
• Auto Provisioning for Matrix SPARSH Phones and Third Party SIP Phones is supported only through
the HTTP Port.
• For Auto Provisioning, you must configure the Standard SIP phones at Location1 only.
You will have to manually configure the Standard SIP phones if you want to register the phone at
Location 2 and 3.To check the registration status, click the SIP Extension Status link.
• If you have already configured the phones at Location 2 and 3 and you upgrade the firmware, the
phones will not function as Auto Provisioning is not supported at these locations. You will have to
configure these phones again manually.
To be able to use Standard SIP Phones/Devices as SIP Extensions, you must configure the following:
• SIP Extension General Parameters, see “Configuring SIP Extension General Parameters”.
• SIP Extension Settings, see “Configuring SIP Extension Settings using Jeeves”.
• Standard SIP Authorization Profile, see “Standard SIP Authorization Profile”.
• Voice Mail Settings, if you want to provide mailbox to the extensions. See “Extension Voice Mail Settings”.
