parameters must be set or updated. When all these parameters have been sent to the phone,

it is ready for operation.

For further information, please refer to the WPI Developer’s Guide [8].

If a Firewall or NAT get in the Way


In case the phones and the provisioning service reside in different networks or subnets that

are separated by a firewall and/or NAT, it may be impossible for the provisioning service to

contact the phones.

To enable a solution for this problem, the phone can be configured to periodically poll

the provisioning service, or a special proxy, for new messages. Thus, provisioning service

driven interactions are possible even when the provisioning service is located behind a

firewall, or in a DMZ. For further information, please refer to the WPI Developer’s Guide [8],

Section 1.4.4.3, "Polling Request To Bridge A Firewall" and Section 3.1.2.2, "Provisioning

Service Located Behind A Firewall".

Single Phone Configuration (Local Menu, WBM)

Generally, it is recommended to administrate and configure an OpenStage phone installation

remotely using a provisioning service via the phone’s WPI (WorkPoint Interface). However,

there are two further configuration interfaces; these can be used to administrate individual

phones:

• Local menu: The user interface of the device itself.

• Web Based Management (WBM): The phone’s web interface.

Note: The default password for OpenStage administration is <123456>.

Local Menu


The phone’s application key ( ) is used to access the user and administration menu at the

phone.

Web Based Management (WBM)

The phone’s web interface can be accessed by any common web browser, like Firefox or

Internet Explorer. As HTTPS is used, the URL must be entered as follows:

https://<phone-ip-address>

If the browser displays a certificate notification, accept it.

Alternatively, the DNS name of the phone can be entered, if it has been configured and DNS

is available in the network.
