RealPresence Trio: Provision to login to SfB AND Exchange

[final]

Hi,

I've spend a couple of hours trying to get our RealPresence Trios (10 pieces) to automatically get the username and password (user credentials, not pin authentication) from the provisioning server and then use those user credentials to login to Skype For Business and Exchange (O365). We're using the newest Firmware 5.4.4AA

This has been working automatically when the credentials are entered via the Web interface. Via the Web Interface, I go to Settings -> Lync Sign In, choose "User Credentials", enter the email address as "Sign-In Address" and "User", enter the password, click on "Sign In" and I'm done. The phone logs into Lync and Exchange, can make/receive calls und displays new appointments.

I see from the pushed config that my changes via the web interface set the following values on the phone:

reg.1.auth.useLoginCredentials="1"
reg.1.auth.loginCredentialType="usernameAndPassword"
reg.1.address="room302@contoso.com"

I assume that the phone does not push back the reg.1.auth.password for security reasons, but couldn't find a confirmation for that in the Admin Guide.

When I provide this exact same config (inclusing reg.1.auth.password) via the Provisioning Server, the phone does not log in to Lync or Exchange. When I use useLoginCredentials="0", the trio logs into Lync but not into Exchange - it says "EWS not deployed" under Diagnostics -> Lync Status -> Exchange Client.

I've also tried to configure the username and password via options device.logincred.user and device.logincred.password, as these are shown to be the values used when selecting the login fileds in the web client. However, that also doesn't work

Any ideas how to get this to work?

thanks, those settings did it for me. I used domain.tld instead of domain though. Thanks a lot!
