Web interface of the STARFACEMenu "Configuration"Menu "Phones"Tab "Settings"



In this tab the general phone settings are configured on the STARFACE.

Autoprovisioning of new devices

The STARFACE autoprovisioning can be switched on and off using the Activate and Deactivate buttons. It must be noted that changes made here become active immediately, and there are no further messages / queries.

Applied server address: Using this option, it is centrally controlled which IP address is set on the connected telephones using STARFACE autoprovisioning in order to establish the connection between the terminal device and STARFACE. The possible “Default” selection sets the IP address which is configured on the STARFACE eth0 port.

Enable new phones automatically: By deactivating this option, telephones can be prevented from independently registering via autoprovisioning and from being supplied with access data. The telephones are then listed as detected in the overview list, but they are not registered on STARFACE or functional.

Telephones marked as inactive must be individually shared using the corresponding checkbox in the overview list of configured telephones.

Note: To avoid unauthorized registrations, it is highly recommended to deactivate this for telephone systems which are accessible via a public IP address. This is why the option is deactivated in the basic settings on STARFACE cloud instances.

Software updates for devices

Firmware auto update: By default, telephones which have autoprovisioning activated automatically obtain the most up-to-date firmware delivered with STARFACE. This distribution process can be deactivated here if necessary.

Update phones now: Using this button, the distribution of the firmware version stored on STARFACE can be launched on all connected telephones.

Authorized MAC Addresses

Authorized MAC Addresses: To only use autoprovisioning for certain telephones or to set up an additional security measure, a MAC address filter can be activated at this point. Therefore, only telephone / terminal device registration attempts are only taken into account by STARFACE for those telephones / terminal devices with a MAC address entered in the list.

If the limitation of MAC addresses is to be temporarily suspended, the checkbox can be deactivated without the existing entries being lost.

Note: If the MAC address restriction is activated later on, all of the telephones already registered on STARFACE will continue to work even if their MAC addresses are no longer entered in the list.
