Do you know if this applies to all of the sipura based ATAs? 3102, etc... Are the XML files compatible? I too would also like to auto provision my Sipuras. Only reason I'm using those instead of the PAP2's is T38... although I have yet to have to actually use T38.

Now you should see the Provisioning tab (see this for what the web page should look like: http://voipfan.net/emulators/pap2t/admin/advanced/) The Profile Rule setting from that page specifies the URL for your provisioning server. You can point it to a web server or a TFTP server. Also, you can specify an encryption key for the configuration file. Usually, most people use a token like $MA in the URL, which the adapter will replace with its own MAC address. As for the DHCP option 66: that can be used as well, if your provisioning server is located in the same LAN as your VoIP adapter(s). If I'm not mistaking, the PAP2 and PAP2T will look for a TFTP server using that DHCP option, and then they will ask for the file init.cfg from the root of the TFTP server. That init.cfg could have the whole configuration (but then if you have multiple ATAs they will all use the same configuration file), or you can use the init.cfg to point the adapter's provisioning to another server/URL. For example, my init.cfg is a simple XML that looks like this: <flat-profile> <Profile_Rule ua="na">http://sipconfig.anotherserver.net/$MA.xml</Profile_Rule> </flat-profile> This way, any factory reset adapter that connects to my LAN will grab that file automatically and set its provisioning URL to "http://sipconfig.anotherserver.net/$MA.xml";. From there, I can use separate configuration files based on the MAC address of the adapter. To see what the configuration file would look like, I recommend downloading the SPC tool from http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/voicesw/ps6790/gatecont/ps10024/ps10029/PAP2T_Firmware.zip You can use it to generate a sample configuration file for you, then customize that file to your needs. Just a friendly notice that due to the huge number of options that you can change in the Linksys ATAs, the sample XML can look a little scary. If you want a trimmed down version of the config file, have a look at the one I am using http://voipfan.net/files/sample.xml Last, here's a good admin guide for the Linksys / Sipura adapters. It has lots of info on provisioning too: http://voipfan.net/files/LinksysSPAAdminGuidev2.0.11-16.pdf On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 7:09 PM, Erik Schwartz <[email protected]> wrote: > Can anyone help with provisioning on this device?
