The receptionist has a Polycom VVX601 with two VVX expansion modules. Currently, the expansion modules show a blank screen. I understand I need to log into the WEB GUI to add the lines but I am not able to as I receive the attached error. How do I update the features.cfg so I can add the lines to show up on the expansion module? 

Am i on the right page?

 

We do not use a provisioning server and the phones are basically setup on a per phone basis. 

 

Appreciate any support in advance!

 

Thanks

HB

    • Provide the Phone Model

 

    • Provide the Call Platform (aka openSIP, Skype for Business, Lync)

 

    • If applicable provide a backup of the phone in question

Hello @hbpolycomnoob,

Unfortunately the labels displayed in this menu had been ported from another older platform so they still leave the impression that Speed Dials can be setup on the phone.

 

The only way to setup a Speed Dial is either manually on the phone or using the <mac>-directlry.xml file as explained here:

or

 

Jan 6, 2012 Question: How can I create a local contact directory / phonebook or what is the 000000000000-directory.xml used for?
