Provision a Phone Provided by Phonebooth

If you purchased your phone from Phonebooth, you will not need to configure your phone. It should come pre-configured and ready to go. All you will need to do is:

1. Assign the MAC(serial) address of the phone (found on the back of the phone) to the appropriate User in the Phonebooth Administrative Portal. You must have Admin Permission in order to perform this task.

2. Once the MAC of the phone is assigned to the User, unplug the phone from power for 10 seconds than then plug it back in.

3. Please test to make sure the phone can make an outbound and inbound call with audio flowing in both directions.

See General Troubleshooting below if you run into an issue.
