Vodia PBX Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 It does not at all. This happens in the browser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that the web server on the PBX will send the browser a redirect to HTTPS. The concern is that the phones are requesting their configuration from the PBX using HTTP. I was not sure if turning the PBX feature to redirect HTTP to HTTPS would cause the phones config request to fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted December 25, 2017 Report Share Posted December 25, 2017 The phone provisioning is unrelated to that setting. Right now the provisioning of the phones hardcodes the phone type when it comes to HTTP or HTTPS. The main problem is that many PBX don't have a valid certificate and phones cannot validate them because they are on a private IP address and don't have a DNS record. We might introduce a flag that tells the PBX provisioning backend if it should assume that there is a valid certificate and it can safely use HTTPS to provision phones.

ahennis@voicespring.net Posted December 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 So turning on the HTTP redirect to HTTPS in the PBX will not cause phones that are provisioning via HTTP to fail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 That is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
