Polycom Soundstation 6000 on Mitel 3300 8.0.8.8??

[tomcotton]

I have a Polycom Soundstation 6000 and am trying to program on a 3300 v8.0.8.8 Is this possible? The notes I have from Mitel talk about SIP forms that aren't present on 8.0.8.8.

Can anyone suggest a way of programming this?

Can it be done? Probably

Are there instructions? Good Luck

Is it supported by Mitel? Almost definitely not.

I just went thru the same pain trying to get a Polycom IP4000 running.

Here are the steps as I remember them.

- on 3300 create generic SIP phone
*** I had to use a blank passcode ***

- On Polycoms Website
- Download latest bootfile and SIP file
- Download Documentation for installation

- FTP Server (On laptop if possible)
- Setup bootfiles etc for download to polycom set

- On Polycom Set (for the first one anyway)
- statically assign IP
- statically assign FTP Setting
- Use crossover cable to connect to FTP Server

- Save settings on Polycom and pray.

- On successful load of files (lots of luck)
- Access web page of set.
- Set extension to value set in 3300
- connect to Network and Pray

If you are successful to this point you may want to try
- Setting up DHCP for IP address, VLAN, and Time
- Locate config file on FTP server and edit for remaining sets (This file delivers the values set in the web page and is named with the MAC address of the set XXXXXXX.cfg or some such)

I am probably missing about 20 steps but the above with some documentation and a little luck will get you close.

There's a "How To" guide on how to set up the Polycom 4000 on MOL....was but up there earlier this week

It may be similar for the 6000. tomcottam, what your on about is the SIP Capabilities Assignment form which basically adds a SIP cos to the SIP set. Since this was introduced in 8UR3 it has made setting up SIP phones a lot easier!

So best you upgrade to latest Release and look at the 4000 How to guide. Looks reletively straight forward

Think I'll upgrade the 3300 to get the added SIP features.

Thanks Guys
