Advanced Provisioner - Configuration Tabs - Settings

Modified on Thu, Apr 4 at 7:16 PM

Description: The purpose of this article is to provide a detailed overview of the Settings configuration tab, which is accessible for all devices eligible for provisioning within the Advance Provisioner App.


The Advance Provisioner App serves as the primary digital workspace for configuring advanced settings on provisioned devices. For every device from any manufacturer, there is a roster of configuration tabs, each containing different parameters. Once you have added a new device, you will have the opportunity to customize a distinct set of configuration tabs tailored to that specific device.



In all the tabs, parameters can be classified into two types: 

  • those that require manual input of values.
  • those that provide a dropdown list of options.


Certain fields may initially contain pre-filled values inherited from server and account settings. These inherited values may vary depending on the specific server and account configurations.


Within this article, we will examine the Settings configuration tab and its parameters available for customization.


Settings Configuration Tab

The parameters available within each Configuration tab may vary depending on the brand and specific device. This article covers all the potential parameters you might encounter within the tab this article is focused on.

This configuration tab is one of the five primary "account settings" tabs that can be set at the account level, ensuring that all newly added devices will adopt the parameters you have defined. 


Account settings are not global. There is a global default (which is the Inherits from Defaults value) which are static settings on the server. Account Settings are account defaults the admin for the account wishes to be applied on all devices in a given account. 

Account administrators have access to Provider Settings, which is a level of defaults above Account Settings. All devices inherit settings in this order: Global → Provider/Reseller → Account → Device.

To learn more about the Account Settings tab, you can refer to the corresponding section of an article accessible through this link.


When configuring a device, the "lines" configuration tab will be the initial default view.


To navigate  the Settings configuration tab, click on its name in the configuration tab roster.
