Scenario 1 Plug & Call
Benefits
- No action required on user side (Plug & Call)
- Phones automatically retrieve configuration data when connecting to the LAN
- Allows complete (i.e. phone / user individual) deployment – and individual service/updates through the lifecycle
- FTP or HTTPS protocol works in NAT environment
- Automatic SW maintenance through the lifecycle
Prerequisites:
- One-time pre-configuration of the LAN (DHCP option 43, e.g. on network server or CPE) – a potential limitation in SOHO environment
- Generating the configuration files (before) installing the phones – may require minor integration work in the system management / CMR system
- Logistics: Scanning of MAC addressing from the phone box / deploying of phones assigned to a particular user
Scenario 2 Service model
Benefits
- Only minor efforts for providing centralized configuration data (e.g. no MAC address related logistics – system wide data only)
- Minor security requirements on processing the configuration files
- FTP or HTTPS protocol works in NAT environment
- Best if combined with other service offerings, e.g. network analysis / network setup - which require initial expert visit on user site
Prerequisites:
- Initial on-site visit of a service / level 1 technician
- DHCP option 43 helpful, but not necessarily required
