Dear all,
first off thanks to everybody who has and is contributing to PIAF and this forum, it's been an incredible resource as I learned my way around a PBX.
I'm volunteering for a small non profit, trying to set up a phone system for them, and they have a large batch of these LG-NORTEL phones:
6804n https://downloads.avaya.com/css/P8/documents/100104967
this model has been discontinued in 2007 and there's barely anything on the internet about them, but I managed to find an admin guide with a simple config and eventually got them working with Asterisk. This however is a pretty manual process involving creating config files named after the MAC in the t*f*t*p directory, etc, I'm sure you know the process.
I've looked at ways to automate this and there seems to be a plugin for FreePBX called OSS Endpoint Manager, but it doesn't have a template for this type of phone. I looked at provisioner.net on github, but I couldn't really figure out how I'm supposed to add something so that I can manage everything from the EM.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
thank you,
Spike
