About this Manual

This manual describes the mechanism of remote login/provisioning if you are implementing provisioning using
your own provisioning server (rather than the CounterPath CCS). It describes how to set up a server (or servers)
for the remote login and optionally the remote provisioning, remote update and remote upgrade features of Bria:

Remote login controls access to the application; the softphone will not start until the user has logged in.

Remote provisioning lets you configure the softphone remotely as part of the login process.

Remote update lets you change the configuration of a given deployment of Bria at runtime (after user has
successfully logged in).

Remote upgrade lets you deploy upgrades of the software remotely.

This provisioning process applies, with very minor exceptions, to all Bria clients: Bria 4 for Windows, and Bria
4 for Mac.

Intended Audience

This manual is intended for:

System administrators who have purchased retail Bria from the CounterPath website and are deploying
Bria in their enterprise using remote logging and (optionally) remote provisioning. (See the “Bria 4
Administrator Guide” for other ways of deploying.)

Service providers who have purchased retail Bria from CounterPath Sales, without further customization or
engineering changes.

If you have purchased a branded and/or customized version of Bria, you should be reading the manual
“Bria 4 Configuration Guide - OEM Deployments”.

This manual is intended to be read in conjunction with:

“Bria 4 Configuration Guide - Enterprise Deployments”, which describes the features that can be
configured through remote provisioning.
