3CX with Remote auto provisioning of Fanvil phones using Fanvil FDPS server

If a large number of the Fanvil phones need to remotely register to 3CX server, in addition to using the RPS server of 3CX to assign auto provisioning links to the phone, the FDPS server of Fanvil can also realize this function. Here we will describe how to remote auto provision the Fanvil phones using FDPS server.

Prerequisites: 3CX server

1.Disable rps in 3CX server. Here we assume that 3CX is installed in linux operation system: ssh to 3CX server using putty, and change rps from 1 to 0 in the fanvil template file fanvil.ph.xml(rps is in the line 49).
