SIP in higher education

[Arthur Gaylord <>]

Alan,

It was a while ago, at least 2 years, and I don't remember all the 
details.  More importantly it may very well have changed by now. As I 
remember it you could use tftp to change some but not all the parameters 
on a Polycom phone. It may have also been that you couldn't trigger 
software updates automatically.  In any case, I most definitely do not 
want to claim that there are mass deployment issues with them now.  I 
only meant the comment in the context of why we didn't end up 
considering them for use at WHOI.

I have been thinking of looking at the new Polycom phone, IP 430, 
although at the moment am more focused on deploying the 1200 Snom 360s 
that we already have.  About 650 of them are in use now as we have 
nearly 1/2 of WHOI converted to VoIP.
