I've just started deploying these (well the T28P model) after years of
Snom issues and they look pretty good (although the documentation is
execrable; if you thought the Snom stuff was obtuse Yealink have got
them knocked into a cocked hat!).
Anyway, for provisioning I use HTTP with a DHCP entry like:-
#
# Yealink Phones
#
group {
#
# The phone should pickup the
# model config file (y0000000000000.cfg for the
# T28P) first and then the MAC.cfg file
#
# Yes tftp-server-name to set the DHCP option
but
# the http:// tells the phone to get it's files
via
# http.
option tftp-server-name
"http://192.168.1.13/yealink";;
#
host yealinkT28P {
hardware ethernet 00:15:65:1b:d9:12;
fixed-address 192.168.1.33;
option host-name "yealinkT28P";
}
}
As the comments say, the phone's first pick up the model dependant
config file (y0000000000000.cfg for the T28P model) and then the
MAC.cfg file.
This is nice as you have one model.cfg file for the site-wide config and
then fine tune specific phones (setup different BLF keys and, obviously,
SIP logins for each device) in the MAC.cfg files.
In the y0000000000000.cfg file I have:-
#
# Auto Provision
[ autoprovision ]
path = /config/Setting/autop.cfg
server_address = http://192.168.1.13/yealink
[ autop_mode ]
path = /config/Setting/autop.cfg
# Mode 7 = at Power On and Weekly
mode = 7
# Sunday between 0100 and 0500
schedule_dayofweek=0
schedule_time = 01:00
schedule_time_end = 05:00
#
Re non-web based access. Obviously the config files are on your
DHCP/Apache/Asterisk server so you can edit them however you like.
You can also enable telnet access to the phones with a 'hidden'
config option of:-
#
[ telnet ]
path=/config/Network/Network.cfg
telnet_enable=1
#
but the login/password are the admin defaults so a bit of a security
hole there. Not really found much useful telnetting into the phone but
I've not played around with it much.
One other useful tip: If you play around in the web interface, set the
phone up and then export the config, you end up with a config.bin file
which is just tar of the config files. A quick diff and you can easily
find out what you need to tweak in your Autoprovision config files.
Hope that helps.
PS - anyone else with useful Yealink tips?
