Configuration Access Control

Besides configuration parameters that control resync and upgrade behavior, the IP
Telephony Device provides mechanisms for restricting end-user access to various
parameters.
The firmware provides specific privileges for login to a User account and an
Admin account. Both can be independently password protected.
• Admin Account: Allows the service provider to configure the device. The
Admin account has full access to all IVR functions and to all administration
web server parameters.
• User Account: Allows the user of the device to access basic interactive
voice response (IVR) functions and to configure a subset of the
administration web server parameters.
The service provider can restrict the user account in the following ways:
• The service provider can choose which configuration parameters are
available to the User account.
• The service provider can completely disable any user access to the
administration web server.
• The factory reset control using the IVR can be disabled via provisioning.
• The Internet domains accessed by the device for resync, upgrades, and SIP
registration for Line 1 can be restricted.

Configuration Profiles

The configuration profile defines the parameter values for a specific IP Telephony
Device. The configuration profile can be used in two formats:
• Open (XML-style) format
The XML-style format lets you use standard tools to compile the parameters
and values. To protect confidential information in the configuration profile,
this type of file is generally delivered from the provisioning server to the IP
Telephony Device over a secure channel provided by HTTPS.
