9 Configuring the Base Station
Configuring the Base Station
You can configure the base station using one of the following methods:
The Web User Interface, or WebUI, which you access using your Internet
browser. See Using the WebUI on page 18. The browser-based interface is easy
to navigate
and best-suited to configuring a wide variety of settings. The
WebUI has every setting required for configuring the base station and
handsets. You can enter service provider account settings on the WebUI, assign
accounts to handsets, and set up provisioning, which will allow you to
automatically and remotely update the base station after initial configuration.
Provisioning using configuration files. Working with configuration files allows
you to configure the base station at regular intervals. There are several
methods available to enable the base station to locate and upload a
configuration file. For example, you can enable the base station, when it starts
up or reboots, to check for the presence of a configuration file on a provisioning
server. If the configuration file is new or has been modified in any way, the
base station automatically downloads the file and applies the new settings. For
more information, see Provisioning Using Configuration Files on page 61.
From the V
SP601 handset, using the Admin menu. The Admin menu is best
suited to configuring a few settings, perhaps after the initial setup has been
done. For administrators, the settings available on the handset menus are
limited to network settings, provisioning settings, editing the handset’s PIN
code and checking for firmware updates. See Using the Admin Settings menu
on page 13.
Most o
f the settings accessible on the handset are most useful for end users. The
handset menus allow users to customize the screen appearance, sounds, and the
handset name. For more information, see the VSP600/VSP601 User Guide.
