I am having the dickens of a time trying to connect my VVX 500 to Skype for Business Online.
I have set the Provisioning server and settings according the MS Support's direction, and upgraded it first to 5.4.0A.10182 then to 5.5.0.20556. In both cases, skype for business sign in fails after a VERY long time trying. I worked at length with MS support until they basically said to work with Polycom support, and also to obtain the SIP logs, which I still don't know how to do.(help there would be appreciated). I called Polycom support and while friendly, they were only allowed to do hardware support for me and couldn't go past a couple suggestions which didn't end up helping. Then I was steered here to you guys. Hoping we can sort this out.
Pertinent Info:
Server type set to HTTPS
Server: sipdir.online.lync.com:443 (have also tried removing :443 without success)
User: office 365 username
Password: office 365 password
the rest of the settings under Provisioning server are set to default.
Under Simple Setup, base profile is set to Skype for Business.
Interesting issues, might be problems:
1. under Simple Setup, SIP server and Outbound Proxy still show my previous provider server addresses, but it is my understanding I dont' need to change that, and once this phone connects with the skype for business servers those will change automatically.
2. With out previous provider we have a DHCP server setting under SCOPE options that sets option 66 to point at the previous providers server. MS support didn't seem concerned about this, but just in case I set up a reservation in DHCP for my phone and changed that setting to blank for my phone... not sure if that helps or hinders or doesn't do anything. Under Settings - Provisioning Server - DHCP Server - Boot server is set to Custom+Opt66, Boot Server Option set to 160, Boot Server Type set to String
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello Fraser76,
welcome to the Polycom Community.
Our Partner tested UC Software 5.5.1 and we passed that qualification and just released UC Software 5.5.2
The currently latest UC Software in the 5.4.x range is 5.4.6
Any tickets opened with Polycom support should at least use the currenlty latest version.

Hello Fraser76,
We officially passed Microsofts certification for UC Software 5.5.2 yesterday and that should reflect on their web page soon.
If you require any support from Polycom the Phone should run either 5.5.2 or 5.4.6
