Hi,

I just moved many Polycom phones from firmware v3 to 4.0.1b. Anto-Answer
simply stopped functioning. I can downgrade and make it work, upgrading
kills it again. There obviously is a difference in how the newer
firmware is treating this auto answer sip header.

Can anybody tell me if they have Polycom firmware 4.x.x working with
auto-answer/paging? Just so I know it’s worth my time to investigate, as
opposed to knowing it`s a Polycom firmware bug? If so, did you have to
make any changes to the SIP header sent to make Polycom phones auto answer?


I would second the others suggestions about rewriting the configs. Polycom made extensive changes between 3.2 and 3.3, and I think they made a fair number of changes between 3.3 and 4.0. I have two phones that I've upgraded to 4.0.1b for testing, a 550 and a spectralink 8440, and I believe I have auto answer working as you describe. Here's the pertinent snippet from my config:

<polycomConfig>
  <voIpProt>
    <voIpProt.SIP>
<voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class="ringAutoAnswer" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value="intercom" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.class="ringAnswerMute" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.value="page" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.3.class="autoAnswer" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.3.value="silentanswer">
      </voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo>
    </voIpProt.SIP>
  </voIpProt>
</polycomConfig>

I have also added an <se.rt> section to adjust the ringer and timeouts for these ring tones.
