Note:
Note: A Device Profile may define multiple IP interfaces. One of the IP interfaces that
you define must be set as primary management interface (PMI). The IP address
of the PMI interface is used by the Avaya Provisioning and Installation Manager
to communicate with the device and as the device identifier in the Avaya Aura™
Communication Manager server.
After you create a device profile, you can schedule the data to be uploaded to the devices. For
more information on scheduling a job, see Scheduling a job
on page 45.
