EX90 Provisioning wizard

[rfrome]

ON the EX90s, when I select the Cisco VCS as teh Infrastructure option, it prompts me for

Username

Password

Domain

and

External Manager.

What username and password is this trying to authenticate against? Where is this configured? IS this done in TMS? I tried creating configuration options in TMS similiar to those I'd create for Jabber, but the EX90 doesn't ever pull a config.

I can simply add the VCS-Expressway as the SIP proxy to the EX90 configuration and it will register and place and receive calls just fine, but I'm trying to get the device to actually authenticate.

I've looked at the Device provisoning guide and the authenticating devices guide, and this topic does not seem to be addressed. Does anyone have any pointers or suggestions they can share?

thanks, in advance,

This would be the username and password that the user has datafilled in TMS for their provisioning account - should be the same username as Jabber uses but passwords could be different if jabber is doing AD authentication.

You'd also need to add the EX90 provisioning template (xml file) to TMS and create provisioning settings.

Thanks Guy,

The EX90 TC5.1.1 provisoning template has been uploaded. Do you have some recomended provisoning settings?

Also, is it trying to use the username and password created in the user account section or the provisoning username and password?

thx,

rf

The account details under System > Provisioning > Users
