We are switching service providers and are getting ready to move to Teams, we are trying to configure our VVX600 phones to connect to Skype for Business but the option is grayed out. 

 

We are currently running version 5.9.7.4200

 

Could this be a lingering configuration from our old provider? is there anyway to enable SFB?

Hello @BSCC_Mike ,

 

Welcome to the Poly Community.


In order to use Skype for Business on a Poly VVX you need to ensure that the correct license is in place. Checking your serial 0004F2DD6564 shows this is a 2200-44600-025 openSIP SKU so, therefore:

 

Please be aware of the following when utilizing UCS 4.1.0 or later:

The use of Polycom UC Software versions 4.1.X (“Software”) requires the purchase of a separate Software license for every device that will use the Software in a LYNC / Skype for Business environment. You may not install, access, or use the Software in a LYNC / Skype for Business environment on more devices than are listed on your license until additional licenses have been purchased and authorized by Polycom. These licenses should be purchased from the same company from which you purchased the devices. You may operate devices against a LYNC / Skype for Business server for trial purposes for up to 30 days without purchasing a license. Use of the Software is subject to the terms and conditions of the End User License Agreement.

Polycom reserves the right to audit your deployment to verify that you have sufficient licenses to match the number of devices being used.

Information in regards to License Part Numbers can be found here

 

Once you have ensured that these are in place for all the phones you going to use ensure you are using currently supported software. The version provided by yourself is not the software:
