Replace UUUUUU with your provisioning sever Username, PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP with the password for the server and DDDDDDDD with your deployment ID. Confirm and Autoprovision the handset, it should come back and then download any firmware required and it’s associated configuration and will now lock down to the server. The handset will take some time to come back and may sit displaying a random message like DNS checking... do not panic and do not turn off the handset. We have had them go away for anything up to 15 minutes before just firing back into life and logging in.
