Good info, Matt. Like you said on your blog it would have been nice to have it a couple of years ago. One problem with it; it mentions changing sip.cfg. I learned my lesson about changing sip.cfg after my first Polycom software upgrade. I now make my customizations to my own cfg file that gets loaded before sip.cfg.

any entry in sip.conf you want to modify, simply copy the key/value pair to polycom_local.cfg for your provisioning template.
