I don't know if you can prefill SIP passwords with LDAP (recall reading
something about that somewhere along the way).

 

Worst case though, export your users on the 3.10.3 system and then
import them on the 3.11 box.

 

The other stuff should work.

We will be deploying about 100 phones.  The though of hand configuring
each phone and feature is not nice.

Here is what I'm thinking.  I'm gonna setup both systems use LDAP to
pull over the users and prefill thier extensions.   So now both system
have the exact same users.  I haven't tried it yet, but i should be able
to even fill in the SIP password from ldap right?

So then I will configure phone using 3.11 and use the TFTP server on it
to serve the phones.  But then I should be able to play a simple DNS
trick.  The phone will get the config to register with sipx.company.com
but that DNS will point to 3.10.

Think that will work?  Can anyone think of somthing that could cause a
problem here, not sure how much of the other pieces will be affected
like paging config.

Thanks,
Matt

I haven't tried this before, but I don't see why you can't run the
3.11.x server elsewhere on your network to generate all the phone
configs, then just manually copy them to the 3.10.3 sipXconfig phone
dir. Its not quite as easy as what you're suggesting, but I think it
gets the job done. The problem with running a 3.11.8 sipXconfig with
3.10.3 sipx is that we've changed a lot of things about how sipXconfig
relplicates configurations (for sipx services) and starts and stops
processes... I doubt it would actually work.
