Is there any such thing as a GPON system that /isn't/ vendor locked?
I'm not specifically defending Calix here, I'm just thinking I haven't
yet seen GPON equipment that made any assertions about interop with
other vendors. Unless you went ActiveE aren't you still locked in with
whatever vendor you went with?

and welcome to Calix. That's one of the reasons I opted to not go with
Calix for our fiber system. Just as vendor-locked as Apple and Ubiquiti.

So with most VoIP devices... you can point them to an auto-provision
server. When they boot up, they send a request (FTP, HTTP, HTTPS) for
the config file based on MAC address, the provisioning server creates
the file or serves up a file already created.
There is no way to direct an ONT to a provisioning server on boot-up
that isn't Calix. That is where the ONT expects to find the SIP
credentials. There is no way to have the Calix Cloud pull credentials
based on MAC address from a SIP provisioning server. So the only
option you have is to manually add the credentials by first creating
them on the VoIP platform and then entering them into the Calix Cloud.
There could be a way to do this via API... and really there isn't any
reason I can think of why there is not. But Calix has a hell of a play
to pay mentality and partnering with them in any way as a vendor is a
lot of paperwork and bureaucracy.

Carl,
We have many ISPs reselling our VoIP service using Calix ONTs
(Gigacenter and Gigaspire). There is no auto-provision
option which is a shame.
Is TR-069 not an option to provision outside of OMCI?

our Gigacenters and P series ONTs all have POTs jacks.Â
Any chance you could point me in the right direction as to
how to start configuring VOIP service? I have no idea
how to even begin thinking about it. Â

If you use onts that have pots jacks, yes.

I've got a few business customers who would like to add
phone service. In the past we have just set them up with
a service like Goto/Jive. Is it possible to configure
something like this and then just use the POTS port on the
ONTs? GPON4 card says it supports VOIP. Â
