Hi

 

Is there an XML API function available to restart the phone? 

 

I have some SoundPoint devices which won't support the REST API so I'm looking for a way to remote restart them, without having to use the web admin or send a NOTIFY from the SIP server.

 

Thanks

David

Hello David,


welcome to the Polycom Community.

Prior to UC Software 5.4.0 that is the only possibility.

so how can I use REST to reboot Polycom (5.5.1)?

HP Recommended

Hello Mine,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

The REST API is at present reserved to our Interoperability and service provider partners.

 

I can only assume you are an simple end customer so you do not have access to this.

Hello,

We have hundreds of Polycom VVX phones, (possibly to up thousands) as we deploy them..

What is the best way to administratively reboot them?
Thanks.

 

HP Recommended

Hello mine,

Could I kindly ask you to action on my reply?

 

The only other way is via the FAQ described SIP INFO Header.

Hello mine,

enabling the API via the configuration Parameter or simply via the Web UI still does not provide you with the relevant required documentation.

 

I already replied to this prior.

We were faced with the same problem.  We needed to reboot about 250 VVX 410 phones on a nightly basis.  We were on older firmware and a reboot was the only way to update the directory.

 

I wrote a powershell script that would log into our cisco access layer switches, and would run 'show cdp neighbors | poly'.  This would give me all of the Polycom phones and the interface that they were plugged into.  The script would then drop into each interface, one by one, and run 'power inline never', and then 'power inline auto'.  This would disable and re-enable the POE for the interface, essentially rebooting the phone.  It would take a few hours to get through all the phones, but it was pretty solid for the 8 months it needed to run (we updated our phones to newer firmware and no longer needed to reboot the phones).
