This article explains how to provision Yealink phones with Vodia’s zero-touch plug-and-play using LAN provisioning. Vodia supports a range of Yealink models, including the T21P, T46G, W60P, and more. Once the phone is reset to factory settings, the Vodia PBX automatically detects the device on the network and displays key information such as MAC address and model. After selecting an extension, the phone registers with the system, making it ready for use. This simple process ensures quick integration of Yealink phones into the Vodia PBX, enabling a hassle-free setup with minimal configuration.

We will discuss only LAN provisioning in this article.
LAN Provisioning
LAN Provisioning is the simplest way to get your Yealink phone configured with the Vodia PBX.
Reset your Yealink phone to factory default by pressing the "OK" on your phone until you see "“Reset to factory settings?” appear. "Confirm" to reset.
After the phone has rebooted to factory default it will be ready for provisioning.
Switch to Admin mode on your Vodia PBX ---> navigate to Phones ----> LAN Devices
The Vodia PBX has already scanned the network for your Yealink devices after factory default, and it will show the available units on the LAN device page. The following information will be displayed:
Mac address
Device IP
Vendor type
Model
Firmware version
Hostname
Vendor Class ID
Click on the Setup button to configure the unit: a dialog box will pop up and display the available extensions to which you can pair the phone. Once you have chosen an extension on the system, the Yealink phone will reboot and register to the extension. To configure the Yealink line keys and expansion boards, follow these instructions https://doc.vodia.com/buttons
Vodia’s 2025 marked a year of pragmatic AI adoption, unprecedented platform robustness, and laying the foundation for the next phase of the PBX. With version 69 reaching exceptional stability, focus has shifted to version 70, which introduces a redesigned admin interface and major architectural improvements in scalability, resilience, and flexibility. Alongside steady expansion of integrations and partner tooling, the roadmap for 2026 emphasizes refined user experiences, modernized apps, and continued investment in reliability over hype.
Delaying PBX upgrades may feel safe in the short term, but real-world dependencies like security standards, app compatibility, and vendor APIs eventually force reactive upgrades at the worst possible time. Staying reasonably current with Vodia PBX versions, rather than clinging to outdated releases or jumping on every new preview, helps maintain security, compatibility, and performance while avoiding emergency upgrades, especially as newer features and OS requirements become unavoidable.
The New York City Department of Education has issued a Request for Expression of Interest signaling its intent to modernize district-wide communications by moving away from legacy landline PBX systems. Serving 1.1 million students across 1,800 schools, the proposed transition to a cloud-based VoIP platform focuses on resiliency, scalability, multilingual capabilities, hybrid deployment options, and integration with Microsoft Teams for more than 150,000 staff members.
