While attempting to provision some PAP2T's recently, it occurred to me that resellers might appreciate having a non-voipo-identifyable provisioning URL.

Would it be possible to...


Have a reseller-specific provisioning URL - maybe 'provisioning.voipwelcome.com'
Would it work if resellers create a reseller-domain DNS CNAME entry pointed to the voipo provisioning URL (something like 'provisioning.<reseller-domain>.com' --> provisioning.voipo.com (yes, a customer could still do an nslookup and find the CNAME translation to voipo - hence the suggestion for provisioning.voipwelcome.com)?
Would it work if resellers create a reseller-domain DNS A-record entry pointed to the voipo provisioning server IP address?

Excellent suggestion.

Good catch. We'll get this updated this week.

In terms of cname, we'll need to look into it a little more.

Thanks, Tim!

The CNAME thing would be great, but if it appears tricky or time consuming, I'd settle for the voipwelcome addition. ;)

We've setup an alias of provisioning.voipwelcome.com so you can use this as the Linksys profile rule.
