Visitor Desk Phone Support
General Overview and Configuration
A Visitor Desk Phone (VDP) feature has been implemented in Release 4.0.0 allowing
users the ability to log in to any VDP-configured phones and thus use that respective
phone as his/her personal device for the duration of the logged in session.
Using the “aastra.cfg”, “<mac>.cfg”, or “<model>.cfg” file, Administrators can provision
each of the respective phones with a generic visitor account that has been configured
for the specific environment and then simply define the “user config url” parameter,
which specifies the configuration server URL where the <user>.cfg is located when
utilizing the Visitor Desk Phone (VDP) feature.
For example, the respective configuration file for a simple visitor account could con-
tain the following:
sip auth name: 5000
sip display name: Acme Inc.
sip password: 12345
sip proxy ip: 100.200.50.60
sip proxy port: 5060
sip registrar ip: 100.200.50.60
sip registrar port: 5060
sip screen name: Visitor
sip user name: 5000
sip dtmf method: 1
user config URL: http://100.200.50.79/vdp/
