which the Media Resource Group List does not
Due to the nature of out-of-band DTMF signalling, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager will sometimes insert Media Termination
Point Resources (MTP) in a call. This will prevent video on the Polycom
VVX 1500 C from operating correctly. This is most common on H.323 and
SIP trunk calls. To prevent this from occurring, the MTP resources should
be removed from any Media Resource Groups and Media Resource Group
Lists that would be used in the trunked calls.

Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone
The Polycom VVX 1500 C phone is designed to be used like a regular phone
on a public switched telephone network (PSTN). It is a business media phone
that combines advanced business telephony, one-touch video, real-time
presence, and integrated business applications into one seamless, lifelike
communications experience.
The phone provides a powerful, yet flexible IP communications solution,

display supplies content for call information, multiple languages, directory
access, and system status. The phone supports advanced functionality,
including multiple call and flexible line appearances, HTTPS secure
provisioning, custom ring tones, and local audio and video conferencing.
For the package parts list and instructions on how to assemble the phone, refer
to the Polycom VVX 1500 Quick Start Guide, which is in the phone package.
This chapter provides basic instructions for setting up the Polycom VVX 1500
C phones when managed by Cisco Unified Communications Manager:
• First you must change the network information that is currently on the
phone. Refer to Changing the Network Configuration on page 3-2.
• Upgrade the phone software before changing the configuration files and
deploying the phones.
Out of the box, the Polycom VVX 1500 C phone is running bootROM 4.2.1

• If you choose to manage your phones through a provisioning server, you
need to:
— Set up a provisioning server and download the appropriate files. Refer
— Decide which features you want enabled and which you want
— Create configuration files to support the required features on the
• If you do not want to use a provisioning server, you can change some of
the phone’s configuration through a web interface. Refer to Modifying
Phone’s Configuration Using the Web Interface on page B-1.
For installation and maintenance of the Polycom VVX 1500 C phone, the use of a
provisioning server is strongly recommended. This allows for flexibility in installing,
upgrading, maintaining, and configuring the phone. Configuration, log, and directory
files are normally located on this server. Allowing the phone write access to the
server is encouraged.
The phone is designed such that, if it cannot locate a provisioning server when it
boots up, it will operate with internally saved parameters. This is useful for
occasions when the provisioning server is not available, but is not intended to be
used for long-term operation of the phones.

phones. Refer to Deploying Phones From the Provisioning Server on
page 3-10.
Because of the large number of optional installations and configurations that
are available, this chapter focuses on one particular way that the SIP
application and the required external systems might initially be installed and
configured in your network.
For more information on configuring the Polycom VVX 1500 C phone, refer to
the latest SIP Administrator’s Guide, which is available at
http://www.polycom.com/support/voice/business_media_phones/vvx150
0c.html .
Changing the Network Configuration
The Polycom VVX 1500 C phone requires several options to be set at boot time
in order to automatically pull its configuration files from an FTP server.
Alternatively, DHCP option 66 (or a DHCP option above 128) may be used to
instruct the phone where to get its configuration and application files. The
default username and password for the phone is PlcmSpIp. These defaults can
be changed in the boot menu of the phone. Any username/password change
on the phone should also be made on the FTP server.
All of the required options may be set by DHCP or manually on the phone
itself. With these options set, the phone will boot and automatically configure
itself to access the FTP server and upload the appropriate configuration files.
3 - 2
Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone
The following options are available to configure the phone via DHCP:
• Required Options
— Option 3 Router. The standard default router (most DHCP servers will
already have this value).
— Option 6 DNS Servers. The standard DNS server entries (most DHCP
servers will already have this value).
— Option 15 DNS Domain Name. The standard DNS domain name entry
(most DHCP servers will already have this value).
— Option 66 Boot Server Host Name. This value represents the IP
address (or DNS name) of the FTP server for the phones. A full URL
can be specified here. For example,
ftp://username:password@ftp.server.com/directory/ .
• Recommended Options
— Option 2 Time offset. This option determines the phone’s time zone,
the value (in hexadecimal) is calculated in the number of seconds from
GMT. For example, 14,400 seconds would be +4 hours and converted
to its long hexadecimal version it would be 00003840. Use a negative
nu mber t o conv ert fo r tim e valu es west of GM T. Exam ples for US t ime
zones can be found below:
Note
• Eastern Time (-5 GMT) = FFFFB9B0
• Central Time (-6 GMT) = FFFFABA0
• Mountain Time (-7 GMT) = FFFF9D90
• Pacific Time (-8 GMT) = FFFF8F80
— Option 42 NTP Servers. This value represents an SNTP capable server
address.
The factory administrator password on the phone is 456.

You can also set up:
• SNTP address—The IP address of the SNTP server for time resolution
• GMT Offset—The time zone to be used by the phone
• DNS Server—The IP address of the DNS server if a name is used for the Server
Address in step k.
You can also control the switchport negotiation of th e LAN and PC ports under the
Ethernet Menu, which is at the bottom of the menu list. These may be set to one of
0 = Auto (default), 1 = 10HD, 2 = 10FD, 3 = 100HD, 4 = 100FD, or 5 = 1000FD. The
PC port can also be disabled (-1). Polycom recommends that you do not change
these values.
Setting Up the Provisioning Server
The protocol that will be used to transfer files from the provisioning server
depends on several factors including the phone model and whether the
bootROM or SIP application stage of provisioning is in progress. By default,
the phones are shipped with FTP enabled as the provisioning protocol.
You can use any computer on the network as the provisioning server
(providing the application image and configuration files for the Polycom VVX
1500 C phone).
3 - 4
Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone
For organizational purposes, configuring a separate log file directory, override
directory, contact directory, and license directory is recommended, but not
required. The different directories can have different access permissions. For
example, for LOG, CONTACTS, and OVERRIDES, allow full access (read and
write) and for all others, read-only access.
Note
Note
The instructions below are written using FTP server as the provisioning server, but
they also apply to any TFTP or HTTP server.
The factory default username and password for the phone is PlcmSpIp.
To set up the provisioning server:
1. Create a directory to store the application image and the configuration
files.

Configuring Your System
After you set up your Polycom VVX 1500 C phones on the network, you can
allow users to place and answer calls using the default configuration,
however, you may require some basic changes to optimize your system for
best results.
This section provides information for making configuration changes for:
• Local Digit Map (or Dial Plan)
• Call Transfer
• Call Log
• Recording and Playback of Audio Calls
• Corporate Directory
• Digital Picture Frame
• Server Redundancy
• Voice Mail Integration
Local Digit Map
To troubleshoot any problems with your Polycom VVX 1500 C phones on the
network, refer to Troubleshooting the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone on page
4-1.
The phone has a local digit map feature to automate the setup phase of
number-only calls. When properly configured, this feature eliminates the need
for using the Dial or Send soft key when making outgoing calls. As soon as a
digit pattern matching the digit map is found, the call setup process will
complete automatically. Digit maps do not apply to on-hook dialing.
For more information digit maps, refer to “Technical Bulletin 11572: Changes
to Local Digit Maps on Polycom VVX 1500 C Phones“ at
http://www.polycom.com/support/voice/soundpoint_ip/VoIP_Technical
_Bulletins_pub.html .
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server
or locally. For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to Dial
Map <dialmap/> on page A-3.
3 - 6
Call Transfer
Call Log
Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone
Call transfer enables the user (party A) to move an existing call (party B) into
a new call between party B and another user (party C) selected by party A. The
phone offers three types of transfers:
• Blind transfers—The call is transferred immediately to party C after party
A has finished dialing party C’s number. Party A does not hear ring-back.
• Attended transfers—Party A dials party C’s number and hears ring-back
and decides to complete the transfer before party C answers. This option
can be disabled.
• Consultative transfers—Party A dials party C’s number and talks
privately with party C after the call is answered, and then completes the
transfer or hangs up.
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server.
For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to Feature
<feature/> on page A-4.
The call log is stored in volatile memory and is maintained automatically by
the phone in three separate lists: Missed Calls, Received Calls and Placed
Calls. The call lists can be cleared manually by the user and will be erased
when the phone is restarted.
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server.
For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to Feature
<feature/> on page A-4.
Recording and Playback of Audio Calls
The Polycom VVX 1500 C phone has a functioning USB port that can be
configured to allow recording of audio calls on supported USB devices.
Note
Notify your users that they may be required by federal, state, and/or local laws to
notify some or all called parties when they are recording.
Playback of recorded files can occur on the phone as well as on other devices,
such as a Windows
Windows Media Player
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server.

Deployment Guide for the Polycom VVX 1500 C
Corporate Directory
The Polycom VVX 1500 C phones can be configured to interface with a
corporate directory server that supports the Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) version 3. Both corporate directories that support server-side
sorting and those that do not are supported. In the latter case, the sorting is
performed on the phone.
The corporate directory LDAP server status can be reviewed through the
Status menu (Status > CD Server Status).
For detailed examples for all currently supported LDAP directories, refer to
“Technical Bulletin 41137: Best Practices When Using Corporate Directory on
Polycom VVX 1500 C Phones“ at
http://www.polycom.com/support/voice/soundpoint_ip/VoIP_Technical
_Bulletins_pub.html .
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server
or locally. For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to
Feature <feature/> on page A-4.
Digital Picture Frame
Note
Server Redundancy
A slide show of multiple personal images stored on a USB flash drive can be
displayed on the Polycom VVX 1500 C phone during the idle mode. The
supported formats include JPEG, BMP, and PNG. The maximum image size is
9999x9999. A maximum of 1000 images can be displayed and these must be
stored in a directory of the USB flash drive that you create.
Although 9999x9999 images are supported, progressive/multiscan JPEG images
are not supported at this time no matter their resolution.
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server.
For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to Feature
<feature/> on page A-4 and User Preferences <up/> on page A-6.
Server redundancy is often required in VoIP deployments to ensure continuity
of phone service for events where the call server needs to be taken offline for
maintenance, the server fails, or the connection between the phone and the
server fails.

Setting Up the Polycom VVX 1500 C Phone
Note
Your SIP server provider should be consulted for recommended methods of
configuring phones and servers for fail-over configuration. Static DNS cache should
only be used when you cannot install the correct entries into the DNS server.
The use of the static DNS cache is required when connecting into a Cisco Unified
Communications Manager system. This is because Cisco Unified Communications
Manager does not support simultaneous registrations from a single device to
multiple subscribers in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster. The
recommended DNS cache configuration would list two subscriber IP addresses,
then an SRST reference (if one is present). This causes the Polycom VVX 1500 C
phone to attempt registration to a single subscriber based on the order of the IP
Addresses listed in the DNS cache. If the first subscriber in the list is down, the
Polycom VVX 1500 C will try the second subscriber, and then third. If a subscriber
comes back online, the Polycom VVX 1500 C will attempt to re-register to that
subscriber.
For more information, refer to “Technical Bulletin 5844: SIP Server Fallback
Enhancements on Polycom VVX 1500 C Phones” at
http://www.polycom.com/support/voice/soundpoint_ip/VoIP_Technical
_Bulletins_pub.html .
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server.
For information on configuration file settings, refer to DNS Cache <dns/> on
page A-4 and Registration <reg/> on page A-5.
Voice Mail Integration
The phone is compatible with voice mail servers. The subscribe contact and
callback mode can be configured per user/registration on the phone. Voice
mail access can be configured to be through a single key press. A
message-waiting signal from a voice mail server triggers the message-waiting
indicator to flash and the call waiting audio tone is played through the active
audio path.
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server
or locally. For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to
Messaging <msg/> on page A-6.
Shared Call Appearances
Calls and lines on multiple phones can be logically related to each other. A call
that is active on one phone will be presented visually to phones that share that
call appearance. Mutual exclusion features emulate traditional PBX or key
system privacy for shared calls. Incoming calls can be presented to multiple
phones simultaneously. Users at the different locations have the ability to
interrupt remote active calls.
This feature is dependent on support from a SIP server that binds the
appearances together logically and looks after the necessary state notifications
and performs an access control function.

Deployment Guide for the Polycom VVX 1500 C
Configuration changes can be performed centrally at the provisioning server
or locally. For detailed information on configuration file settings, refer to
Registration <reg/> on page A-5.
Deploying Phones From the Provisioning Server
You will need to create two configuration files for each
phone—phone1[MACAddress].cfg and [MACAddress].cfg—and one
configuration file for all phones in your installation—sip[XXXX].cfg.
For more information on why to create another configuration file, refer to the
“Configuration File Management on Polycom VVX 1500 C Phones” white
paper at
http://www.polycom.com/global/documents/support/technical/products
/voice/white_paper_configuration_file_management_on_soundpoint_ip_ph
ones.pdf .
