Polycom VVX Series IP phones purchased from Vonage Business are delivered to you ready for use. A Factory Reset is required if the phone was used with a prior service provider.
This information applies to Vonage Preferred Phones.
Before you set up your phone, it must be added to your account if purchased through a third party.
Add Device/Phone to Account | Devices purchased from Vonage are already added to the account, but not set up or assigned to any specific extension. See the next section, Assign Extension to Device/Phone, to complete the setup. Devices added to the account can either be:
|
Add Devices to Account that Were Purchased from a Third Party |
NOTE: After saving the new device, it appears in the table on the Devices tab. The Assignment is listed as Unassigned until an extension is set to the device. |
Password | 456 or <Vonage Business account number> or vonage |
NOTE: Phones not purchased from Vonage Business may have another password assigned. Refer to Lost or Unknown Password in Troubleshoot Issues if the default password or account number does not work.
NOTE: Never select Format File System when performing a factory reset as this will delete the firmware from the phone.
The phone will reboot one or several times before the factory reset is complete.
