Miscellaneous Administrative Tasks

This appendix provides information that may be required to administer the

Polycom VVX 1500 D phone. This includes:

Setting Up an FTP Server

For other miscellaneous tasks, refer to the “Miscellaneous Administrative

Tasks” appendix of the latest Administrator’s Guide for the Polycom UC Software.

Setting Up an FTP Server

A simple provisioning configuration uses File Transfer Protocol or FTP.

Although FTP servers are free, they require installation, and use logins and

passwords.
A free and popular server, Filezilla Server is available for Windows at

http://filezilla-project.org

. This application has been tested with the

SoundStation IP 7000 phone.

To set up the server:

1.

Download and install the latest version of Filezilla Server.

2.

After installation, you are presented with a “Connect to Server” pop-up.

Select OK to open the administrative user interface.

3.

To configure a user, select Edit > Users in the status bar.

4.

Select Add.

5.

Enter the user name for the phone and select OK.
For example, “bob” or “bill123”

6.

Select the Password checkbox and enter a password.
For example, “1234” or “phone&&&”
The phone will use this password to login.
