7 Overview of Administrative Features
The
OBi1000
Series
phones
have
a
rich
set
of
features
to
support
local
and
remote
device
administration
and
provisioning.
Phone
administration
is
a
subject
that
is
discussed
at
great
length
in
the
OBi1000 Administrator
Guide
.
As
such,
we
will
only
describe
some
of
the
basic
operations
that
a
user
may
perform
to
resolve
minor
setup
issues
or
to
assist
remote
troubleshooting.
As
such
many
details
in
this
section
are
discussed
at
a
high
level
and
readers
interested
in
understanding
more
are
encouraged
to
study
the
admin
guide,
available
from
http://www.obihai.com/docs-­‐downloads/
Finding Out the Phone's IP Address
Each
phone
must
have
a
valid
IP
address
in
order
to
connect
to
the
network
and
communicate
with
other
entities
to
access
voice
and
other
network
or
cloud
based
services.
You
can
look
up
the
IP
address
assigned
to
the
phone
from
the
GUI
by
launching
the
Settings
App
from
the
Main
Menu.
The
IP
address
is
shown
with
the
Network
item
under
the
Settings
menu.
A
valid
address
must
be
a
value
other
than
0.0.0.0.
The
IP
address
can
also
be
read
out
via
the
phone’s
voice
admin
menu.
To
enter
the
admin
menu,
dial
***
and
then
select
option
1.
Phone Native Web Portal (NWP)
Each
phone
has
its
own
built-­‐in
portal
site
at
the
URL
http://{ipaddress} where
{ipaddress} is
the
IP
address
of
the
phone.
For
example:
http://192.168.15.213.
The
NWP
is
protected
by
a
username
and
password
–
by
default
this
is
admin
for
both.
The
NWP
site
offers
a
lot
of
configurable
options
and
status
information
that
are
organized
into
a
number
of
web
pages.
The
default
page
is
the
SystemStatus
page.
For
a
comprehensive
listing
of
all
configuration
parameters,
please
refer
to
the
OBi1000
Administrator
Guide.
The OBiTALK.com Cloud User Portal
OBiTALK.com
forms
the
foundation
of
Obihai’s
cloud
managed
telephony
solution.
It
has
a
user
portal
that
lets
users
add
their
OBi
devices
to
their
respective
user
accounts
for
management
and
enhanced
technical
support
capabilities.
Although
this
is
the
recommended
way
to
manage
your
OBi
devices,
it
should
be
noted
that
the
usage
of
the
user
portal
is
entirely
optional
-­‐
a
user
can
access
all
of
their
device
functionalities
by
using
the
NWP
alone
for
example.
On
the
other
hand,
the
user
portal
adds
a
new
dimension
to
the
device
management
model
that
cannot
be
achieved
otherwise,
such
as
configuring
your
devices
from
any
location
with
Internet
access.
The
OBiTALK
user
portal
is
a
self-­‐service
website
that
offers
a
lot
of
utilities
from
adding
a
voice
service,
through
to
setting
up
syslog
for
remote
trouble-­‐shooting,
and
on
to
signing
up
for
a
new
service
through
Obihai’s
ASP
program.
Joining OBiTALK.com
You
can
sign
up
for
a
free
user
account
at
OBiTALK.com
by
providing
a
valid
email
address.
You
do
not
need
to
own
any
OBi
device
when
signing
up.
