MiVoice UC360 on the Office 250 System

[StuartUK]

Hey guys,
Before I put the job order out to our telecom's firm, I would like to try and setup a unit myself if possible.,...

We have a Mitel Office 250 SIP system, with 30 active phone (5330 handsets) extensions and 2 spare unused extenions.
We have 7 SIP trunks.
I just purchased on the cheap side, a MiVoice UC360 Voice conference unit.

When I add phones onto our network, I do the usual   *** ext number , and hold SEND Key for a few seconds   to register the number.......
The UC360 doesn't do this      Which makes me think its not going to be a simple setup ?
The unit picks up DHCP, but from the range set for our computers, rather than the block of 40 DHCP assigned addresses for phones....

Is it safe to say a lot of config works needs to be done on the Office 250 controller to allow the use of a UC360, and to a non-trained Mitel guy like myself, this is something best left to the professionals ?

The UC360 is a SIP device, not a MiNet device like most of your other phones seem to be.

It is compatible but takes not only a bit different setup, but a different license as well.

Do you have a Category F license available?

Cheers for the reply...
Don't think I have a F license, I have just the normal licenses that go with the phones.....

I think this one is going to be best left with the pro's!
Cheers

If possible, I would swap out that UC360 for a Polycom IP-5000. Programing and licenses are the same, but the Polycom is much easier to use. The end-user experience on the UC360 can be very difficult.

if only that were an option !
cheers for the input guys
