Snom Mode Button Provisioning

Published on:

July 20, 2022

snom phones are highly customizable and work seamlessly with the Vodia phone system, making deployment simple. In certain cases, however, like configuring the internal directory on a line key, special settings may be needed. To achieve this, Vodia's snom mode allows users to define and provision settings for snom phones. For example, by using the keyevent F_ADR_BOOK, you can assign a line key for the internal directory. After saving, Vodia will automatically push the new configuration to the phone, eliminating the need for manual reboots.

snom phones are great units to work with. They are very customizable and easy to plug and play with the Vodia phone system. Sometimes, however, the technician deploying the Vodia system with snom phones faces a few challenges.

Here's a scenario:

The customer wants the internal directory feature of the phone on one of the line keys. To check which feature you would like to use, see the list in Key+Events to identify the provisioning value.

Vodia has developed the snom mode: here you will be able to define any setting you would like on the user buttons and provision those values on the snom phone.

When deploying your snom phone, make sure the phone is provisioned correctly. Check our docs on how to provision a snom phone.

Next, navigate to the user buttons and choose snom. You will need to enter the text below to inform the phone system this will be a key+event. You will need to choose your provisioning value.

In this case it will be key+event F_ADR_BOOK - make sure you label your button so the user isn't confused.  Save the setting. The Vodia phone system will push the new configuration to the phone, so there's no need to reboot the unit.

Streamline Call Data and Recordings Directly to the Cloud!

Vodia offers advanced solutions for managing Call Data Records (CDRs) and call recordings, allowing businesses to handle data efficiently. Traditionally, CDRs were stored locally in CSV files, requiring manual transfer to remote locations, which can be time-consuming for organizations handling large volumes. Vodia simplifies this process by providing real-time streaming of CDRs using protocols like WebCDR, JSONS, TCP, and MongoDB, allowing for immediate analysis and custom report generation. Additionally, Vodia integrates with cloud storage services like AWS, DigitalOcean, Linode, and Wasabi, eliminating the need for manual synchronization and local storage. This integration enhances data security, scalability and ease of management.
