How to Provision Poly CCX, Trio, VVX and Edge E phones with Poly Lens | 2 Methods

Hello, everyone!! I've been thinking of creating step-by-step guides about Microsoft, Zoom, Google and UC stuff, but I noticed I need to speak about Poly Lens first. If you ask me... It helps us enable several features, it's a life saver tool, so let's talk about Lens!!!


As I mentioned on How to Provision Poly Studio X / G7500 with Lens, and How to Provision Poly Studio USB / R30 with Lens, there are different options to onboard devices to Lens, two of them are as follows:

  • Onboard a device using Provisioning: Register a device one at a time.
  • Onboard all devices via DHCP Auto Discovery: DHCP automatically registers devices to a provisioning server.
You can automatically provision your phones via DHCP or, manually provision it. In other words, all your Poly devices can be registered to Lens automatically, or manually.

Poly CCX, Trio, VVX and Edge E phones are running UC software, now called Poly Voice Operating System (PVOS), therefore, you can onboard them to Lens in the same way, and today, I'd like to show you how it can be done.

Method 2: DHCP

We manually provisioned a phone, but in case you want to automatically register it, go for DHCP option. The phones will get the provisioning server from your DHCP, and commonly option 66, 160 or 161 are used, however, it depends on your network environment.

DHCP Format

https://<ServerUser>:<Password>@<ProvisioningServerAddressURL>
