Hi Folks,

I am using MITEL 3300 CX-II with IP phones 5312. And DHCP on Linux machine. I want to add new extentions/Phones in the system. My DHCP settings are as below;

authoritative;

option mitel code 125 = string;
option call-server code 129 = ip-address;
option ip-phone-identifier code 130 = string;

# A slightly different configuration for an internal subnet.
subnet X.X.X.X netmask 255.255.255.0 {
class "mitel-phone" {
match if option vendor-class-identifier = null and substring(pick-first-value(option dhcp-client-identifier,hardware), 0, 4) = 1:08:00:0f;
}
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option domain-name-servers X.X.X.196;
option routers X.X.X.1;
option broadcast-address X.X.X.255;
option netbios-name-servers X.X.X.196;
option ntp-servers X.X.X.196;
option tftp-server-name "X.X.X.201";
option mitel "id:ipphone.mitel.com;sw_tftp=X.X.X.201;call_srv=X.X.X.201;dscp=46v46s26";
option call-server X.X.X.201;
option ip-phone-identifier "MITEL IP PHONE";
option netbios-node-type 8;
default-lease-time 3600;
range X.X.X.221 X.X.X.254;
group {
# System-1 range [ X.X.X.1 - X.X.X.3 ]

I am already running 40 ext/phones and i think i need to add the license for adding more Phones/ext. Can you please elaborate the process to add new IP phones 5312 into the system.

Thanks
 
The DHCP Server will have little to do with adding a new phone. It is to get the phone on the network properly.

If you connect the phone and it boots and comes to display "Use Superkey to Send PIN" then your DHCP Server has done its job.

The rest will be up to the Mitel and how it is configured.
In the "System Options" form there will be a field called "Set Registration Access Code" this is normally *** for most systems.
You would program a new user/device and then register the handset to the system using the registration code and the extension number followed by the Superkey (Blue Key)
e.g. to register ext 1234 while phone is waiting for PIN you would dial
***1234{bluekey} this should then register the phone to the system.​

If you require more licensing then this will need to be applied by your dealer.

 
I think it's easier to define 125 as ex on linux and use the config tool to generate the string. You will have to reformat it but it works. I don't think your setup will.
