Overview
The NetVanta 7000 Series product provides the following features that help create/modify IP phone
configurations:
• NetVanta UC Installation Wizard
• IP Phone Configs Menu
• Installation Mode Auto Detection
Hardware and Software Requirements and Limitations
The steps outlined in this guide are compatible with NetVanta 7000 Series voice products running AOS
firmware version R10.7.0.
To check the NetVanta 7000 Series firmware version:
1. Navigate on the unit to System > System Summary.
2. Check the firmware version on the General System Information menu.
ADTRAN branded VVX phones (model names ADTRAN VVX 300, ADTRAN VVX 310, ADTRAN
VVX 400, ADTRAN VVX 410, ADTRAN VVX 500, and ADTRAN VVX 600) function with NetVanta
7000 Series AOS release version R10.8.0 and later without requiring an additional license key purchase.
The equivalent Polycom branded phones will not function with release R10.8.0. If you are currently using
the equivalent Polycom branded phones with the NetVanta 7000 Series, you must either remain on a
pre-R10.8 release or use the ADTRAN branded version of the VVX phones until a licensing mechanism
can be added to allow the use of Polycom branded VVX models.
The rest of the Polycom family of supported IP end points continue to remain unaffected. Either ADTRAN
branded models or the equivalent Polycom branded models of these IP phones can be used with R10.8 and
later. See Table 1 to determine AOS release R10.8 compatibility with ADTRAN and Polycom branded
phone models.

Configuring from Installation Mode
When a new Polycom phone is plugged into the system, the phone enters installation mode, and the unit
automatically detects the presence of the phone. Phones in installation mode appear in the IP Phone
Configs menu with an associated account listed as Installation and are highlighted in orange.
Installation mode does away with the need to pre-assign phones to specific users. A system can be set up
with a CSV import minus the MAC address and phone model columns, and then an on-site installer can
place each phone in its desired location. Once the phones boot up, all the installer has to do is log in the
correct extension and the phones will restart and be ready to use with a default phone configuration. The
installer also has the option to simply place all of the phones and return to the IP Phone Config menu at
which point all of the Polycom phones will be listed in installation mode.
1. Navigate to Voice > Stations > IP Phone Configs.
1. Double click on the phone to configure.
2. On the Installation Prompt menu that appears, you can either assign the phone to a new extension or
assign the phone to a current extension.
Assign a New Extension
Select the New check box and enter the extension in the field that displays.
Phones in installation mode can still be used to place emergency calls.
