IP Phone MAC addresses

Each IP phone has a unique MAC address allowing easy identification. The MAC address is printed on the phone label
found on the bottom of the phone, and can also be found using the phone interface.
The RCS uses MAC addresses to identify phones for the purpose of redirection or overriding firmware files. On receipt of
their phones, Service Providers can add the phone MAC addresses to their account using the RCS Web UI. Service Provid-
ers may also have the alternative of receiving phones already registered by MAC address in the RCS.

Managing IP Phones

The RCS allows manipulation of redirection through a Web UI. Once phones are added to the account, properties can be
edited for one or more phones quickly and easily.

Editing the Redirection Settings for a Single IP Phone

A phone’s RCS and firmware settings can be edited individually if required.
