Central Provisioning: provisioning through configuration files stored in a central provisioning server.The method you use depends on how many phones need to be deployed and what features and settingsto be configured. Manual provisioning on web or phone user interface does not contain all of the phonesettings available with centralized method.

We recommend using centralizedprovisioning as your primary provisioning method when provisioning multiple phones.TopicsProvisioning Methods Priority
