This page describes how the Gigaset Nx70 devices are provisioned behind the Yeastar P-series. 

For this wiki article, we used:

  • Yeastar P550
  • Nx70 software 2.39.0

The Yeastar P-series supports up to 50 DECT handsets per DECT system:

  • N670 up to 20 Handsets
  • N670 with upgrade license can handle up to the Yeastar limit of 50 handsets
  • N870 can handle up to the Yeastar limit of 50 handsets

Therefore the N670 and N870 use the same provisioning template.

titleUsing your own provisioning template

Yeastar offers the possibility to upload your own provisioning template.

Just create an XML provisioning file with all settings and upload via the Yeastar Provisioning App - Upload Files.

Make sure the name of the file is the <MAC address>.xml, see example below.

Yeastar should inform the N870/N670 about a new configuration and provisioning should be started. If this does not work then:

a. Download the provisioning file
