These instructions assume that a physical Teams phone has already been properly requested and approved. Part of this process also includes preliminary backend network settings that must be enabled for this to work.
To set up a companion physical phone to one's Microsoft Teams Phone account, please follow these steps for phones that will be sharing a network data jack with a desktop computer:
- Connect ethernet cable coming from the desktop computer into the "PC" ethernet port located under the Yealink phone.
- Connect another ethernet cable into the Yealink's "Internet" port located under the phone, then connect the other end of this cable to the data jack that the desktop computer was originally connected to.
- After making these connections, the phone will detect the network connection and prompt the user to sign in on the phone's screen (using one's campus credentials which includes full email address and CSULB password):
- Follow the onscreen instructions, which include:
- Step 1: On your computer or mobile, go to https://microsoft.com.devicelogin
- Step 2: Enter the code below to sign in.
Note: for phones that will not be sharing a network jack with a computer, the phone can simply be plugged into the appropriate network jack that has already been configured by DoIT.
