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, 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 system, enabling a hassle-free setup with minimal configuration.

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, the phone will be ready for provisioning.
Switch to Admin mode on your Vodia PBX ---> navigate to Phones ----> LAN Devices
Vodia PBX has already scanned the network for your Yealink devices after factory default and will show the available units on the LAN device page. The following information will be shown to you.
Mac address
Device IP
Vendor type
Model
Firmware version
Hostname
Vendor Class ID
Click on the Setup button to configure the unit, you will see a dialog box that will pop up and display the available extensions you can pair the phone too. 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
Join Vodia Networks on April 8 for a live, in-depth webinar on how real-time media streaming is powering the future of voice communication. Discover how Vodia PBX version 69.5.6 enables seamless AI integration, live call transcription using the Whisper API, and secure voice data handling. Hosted by Sales Engineer Eric Altman and VoIP Engineer Hamlet Collado, this session will walk you through real-world use cases, including OpenAI and Google Speech-to-Text integrations, MS Teams support, and new security features. You’ll also get a first look at Vodia’s AI roadmap and have the opportunity to ask your questions during a live Q&A.
Whisper, OpenAI’s Automatic Speech Recognition system, delivers multilingual, noise-tolerant, and technical-language-ready transcription through a streamlined encoder-decoder architecture. With Vodia PBX’s integration, organizations can choose between using OpenAI’s service or hosting Whisper AI locally for complete data sovereignty and control. This on-premise option ensures that sensitive call data stays within your infrastructure while still benefiting from powerful transcription capabilities. To explore deployment options, see our Whisper AI on-premise setup documentation, review a self-hosted integration example, or follow our cloud-based call transcription guide.
Vodia Sales Engineer Eric Altman attended Enterprise Connect 2025 on March 18 and 19, where he connected with partners and gained insight into the future of enterprise communications. AI was the clear focus of the event, with discussions centered on agentic systems, chatbots, and generative technologies. “It was certainly the main element in the atmosphere,” Eric noted. He also shared his excitement about Vodia PBX version 69.5.6, which includes real-time AI integration with OpenAI and call transcription using the Whisper API.
