Using Auto-Creation

Last Updated : Mar 26, 2021 |
Prolog information
When installing a large number of phones, unless the configuration has been pre-built, auto-creation can be used to simplify the installation process. The auto-created users are automatically linked to the IP Auto-create user rights settings. By default that set of user rights has outgoing calls barred.
  • Auto Disablement of Auto Create: Leaving the auto-create extension and user settings enabled is strongly deprecated. For Release 9.1 and higher, the system automatically disables the settings 24-hours after they are enabled.
  • Not Supported with WebLM Licensing: The auto-create extension and user options are not useable on systems configured to acquire licenses from a WebLM service.
Before you begin
On R11.0.4.0 and higher systems, set the Default Extension Password before enabling auto-creation.
  1. Using IP Office Manager, retrieve the configuration from the system.
  2. Select System
  3. Select the LAN1 or LAN2 tab depending on which of the system's LAN interfaces you want to use to support H.323 extensions.
  4. Select the VoIP sub-tab.

  5. Set the Auto-create Extn and Auto-create User settings
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Note:
    It is necessary to manually create the extension entries and or manually create the user entries before installing the phones.
    On pre-11.0.4.0 systems, when Auto-create Extn is selected, set and confirm a password. The password is set as the Phone Password for any extensions created using autocreation. The phone password is used for registration.
  6. Save the configuration.
