  1. It allows you to ship phones directly to the site from your distributor.  They plug it in, and boom. they are up. Zero Touch Provisioning.  Also, if a phone gets messed up because a user was playing with it.... just hold the ok button down and reset it to factory, pulls the re-direct from yealink, booo ya'.   But yealink's RPS has been know to get stupid and not respond to some firmware versions.  The Polycom ZTP works much better.  And DHCP options works best of all.  Polycom and Yealink both have custom DHCP options.
  2. We also came from a system with all those features and more.  
    It is a love/hate relationship.  We love the reliability of the platform, but hate being without features that all other platforms have.
    We have just learned not to offer anything that the platform is unable to do, like call queues.
    The customization of provisioning templates is one that I really missed as well.
  3. Many of our clients use our routers.  Our routers do have DHCP Options.  
    The polycom ZTP and Yealink RDS have sometimes failed me when I am doing a roll out.
    I would like the onsite router to tell the phone where to go.
    I have never been able to get this to work with http://p3.zswitch.net/  
    I know that 2600hz uses http instead of ftp.  I am lost.

    We use Polycom and Yealink.

  4. You can use your own company information.  They just need proof that they are the current users of the number.  The winning carrier knows who they have to contact just by doing a DID lookup.  Account number is the the account number that you assigned to them.  It could just be their main DID or their name.  Just end them an invoice with the DIDs on it and your fine.
  5. What you are trying to replicate is called Shared Line Appearance.  Asterisk does it fairly well.
    I typically do the same as you are referring to... Parking lots named Line 1, Line 2, etc.  Darren shared a Best Practices Demo at KazooCon about this that was very interesting.  I just wish I could remember it.  Hopefully he reads this and does a quick write up about it.
  6. Caller ID prepend option, for me, is available in monster smart pbx and adv provisioner.  Unfortunately it does not work.  I have a potential retail client that want to go with us but they can not have inbound caller ID.  Weird.  So I was planning to use Prepend to hopefully add enough characters to push the caller ID off screen. Like "Incoming Call Blah Blah"
