Creating User Provisioning Rules

Last Updated : Oct 19, 2023 |

When using a connection to Azure Active Directory to create new IP Office users, the connection settings specify which IP Office 'user provisioning rule' to use. That rule:

  • Sets the starting extension number for new users.

  • Sets the extension type for the new users using either a specified extension template or specified extension type.

  • Sets user settings, other than those taken from Azure Active Directory, for the new users using a user template. The IP Office applies default user settings if you do not specify a user template.

  • Optionally configure on which IP Office in a network the IP Office creates each new user.

Before you begin

Procedure

  1. Using IP Office Web Manager, access the IP Office system configuration.
  2. Select Solution.
  3. Select Solution Settings and then User Synchronization.
  4. Click +ADD and select User Synchronization using Microsoft Teams.
  5. Click Manage User Provisioning Rules.
  6. Click +Add User Provisioning Rule.
  7. Enter a name for the rule.
  8. For an IP Office network, set how the synchronization process determines on which IP Office to create new users. The process can:

    • Use the IP Office field to select the IP Office system on which to create the users.

    • Use a field in the users Azure Active Directory settings to set the system name, FQDN or LAN1/LAN2 IP address of the required system.

    • Otherwise, the process creates all the new users on the primary server.

  9. If not setting the extension numbers using a value received from Azure Active Directory, set the Starting Extension number. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
  10. Select the required extension template or select an extension type.

    • If you select an extension type, the IP Office applies the default extension settings to the new users' extensions.

  11. Select the required user template. If you do not select a user template, the IP Office applies default settings to the new users.
  12. Click Save.
