Snom 7xx devices bulk setup through FreePBX with custom template

Can someone teach me how to deploy multilple Snom 7xx series desktop mobiles in bulk (like 150) at once using FreePBX system with custom device settings (templates). As I am very new to this. Specially setting templates and where to place in Centos 6.2 FreePBX SYSTEM to auto provission...etc. I asked so much in one question🎯

Yes here is the updated question detail: I have created one extension for snom710 model, I want to make a template settings using that test extension but after clicking on edit template it shows some files, don't know which one to edit and which one serve for what purpose. And also if I want to control some of the settings using PBX then how to make that working, say for example <user_host idx="1" perm="">{$server.ip.1}</user_host> what is this {$server.ip.1} I have seen this in my other snom model configured by freelancer for testing purpose. attached is the screen shot.enter image description here

Thanks.

Solution

  • You can use the End Point Manager (EPM) to bulk configure your devices. It is a commercial modules.

    Alternatively, if you want to do it yourself, you can build an auto provisioning server and configure your devices to download the config from the server. All Snom devices support auto provisioning out of the box. You can also put the auto provisioning server IP into DHCP option 66 so that your device can pick up the config automatically as soon as you connects it into your network.

    Definition of User host

    Specify the IP or DNS address of the registrar/proxy where you want to register this account. After a successful registration, the registrar knows how to reach this specific identity and can route requests (e.g., incoming calls) from other registered parties to this phone.
