Yealink Firmware Management

Question

Accepted Answer

Yealink firmware can be managed on our platform by utilizing Device and Domain overrides in NDP or advanced configuration overrides in the PBX Portal.ConsiderationsImportant: Some firmware versions will not work properly with the Yealink Sidecar. You may use the following overrides to resolve this issue. firmware.url="http://sipcfg.io/frm/yealink/v86fix"
