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.

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 PBX now integrates with Keycloak OpenID Connect, providing secure single sign-on for users so they can access all connected applications without repeated authentication. Logging out from one application automatically logs the user out of all connected systems, simplifying user management and improving security. Keycloak, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project, supports standard protocols including OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and SAML, offering enterprise-grade identity and access management. To ensure proper integration, Keycloak user emails must match the corresponding PBX extension emails. Complete guidance is available in the Vodia Keycloak integration guide, with additional details in the Keycloak official documentation.

Although many consider fax outdated, it continues to play a crucial role in sectors where compliance, confidentiality, and legal proof of delivery are non-negotiable. Healthcare providers rely on fax to meet HIPAA requirements, while industries such as finance, law, and real estate depend on it for contracts and documents that require signatures or legally verifiable transmission. Unlike email, fax offers confirmation reports that serve as proof of receipt, along with time-stamped records that hold up in legal proceedings. With Vodia’s PBX, digital fax becomes faster, easier, and more accessible than ever before, enabling users to drag and drop documents, monitor transmission progress, and receive immediate confirmations.
