    This article provides instructions on how to configure IP handsets for automatic provisioning using DHCP options, detailing steps for both Windows DHCP servers and Dell SonicWALL devices.

    Scope:

    The following steps will allow you to configure IP handsets automatically via DHCP options.

    Requirements:

    • If you or your provider has not already done so, Add Your Device to the Manager Portal
    • Handset should be in a Factory Reset state
    • Access to the DHCP server (i.e. Windows DHCP server or SonicWALL)

      Open Windows DHCP server
    2. 2
      Right-click on IPv4 and click on Set Predefined Options...

    3. Complete the following fields

    • Option Class: DHCP Standard Options
    • Option Name: 066 Boot Server Name
    1. 1
      Click Add...
    2. 2

    3. 3
      Click OK

    Dell SonicWALL

    1. 1
      Click on Network > DHCP Server > Advanced

    2. In the popup window click on Add Option... 3. Fill out the new window as follows:

    NOTE: DHCP option overriding the rekeyed UN/PW after the phone provisions. It would be best to add an override disabling DHCP options once provisioned, such as for Yealink static.auto_provision.dhcp_option.enable="0".
