This article will provide a walkthrough on how to manually provision yealink phones.
Manual Provisioning Notice
Manually provisioning a phone should only be done if the device model is incompatible with the Managed Provisioning Portal. If there is question about whether or not the desired phone is able to be provisioned with the MPP Integration, please contact our support team.
Why Manually Provision?
Manual provisioning of the phone should not be required if you have successfully provisioned the phone using the Provisioning Yealink Phones article.
Pre-Provisioning Steps
In order to manually provision a phone that is not compatible with the MPP Integration, it must be factory reset and the phone template will need to be set in the bvoip phone system.
For steps on setting the phone template up, please see the following article:
Accessing the Yealink GUI
To access the web interface, you will need to retrieve the device's local IP and paste it into a web browser. The username and password should both be admin to access the web interface.
In order to obtain the IP of the device:
- On older Yealink models, press the OK button.
- On newer Yealink models, go to Settings >General.
Manually Provisioning Yealink Phones
- Navigate to the Settings tab.
- Select the Auto-Provision option.
- Click the Confirm button.
- Click the Auto Provision button.
Once the phone has been updated with the provisioning URL, a reboot should be issued. The phone should reboot twice. Once to ensure that firmware is correct and the second will be a full phone reboot.
After the reboot, the phone will be setup fully so that not just calls can be setup, but also BLF keys will function as assigned in the phone system.
Phone Still Not Provisioned?
If the phone has not provisioned with either sets of instructions, please refer to our Phone Provisioning Troubleshoot Guide.
