Once logged in, go to Features then General Information. If you aren’t using 3CX, you’ll need to find the phone password from the software that configured the phone. The factory default username is admin and the default password is admin. In 3CX you can also click Password in that menu bar to see the password if you need to enter it manually. With 3CX you won’t get prompted for a username and password because 3CX passes those along for you. If you get an security certificate error, it’s complaining that the phone is using a self signed certificate which can’t be verified by the browser. If you aren’t using 3CX, find the phones IP address and enter it into the address bar of your web browser. This will open a new tab to the phones IP address. To get to the web interface of a phone, go to Phones, select the check box next to the phone, then click Phone UI in the menu bar. To test this for a single device, you can use the web interface of the phone. Consider your network security before you go down this path. In our case, we have our network setup so that SIP phones have a firewall between them and the internet, and within our network they are segmented with access control lists from guest networks and other places where security problems are more likely to come. Yealink has good reasons for their default settings, to prevent spam SIP calls or other security issues.

However out of the box, Yealink phones will only talk their registered SIP server.

Lansweeper does support scanning via SIP.

We can improve this by changing some settings on the phones. Could be worse, but it’s not great if you need uniquely identify hundreds of phones. Out of the box, Yealink phones show up in Lansweeper as a webserver with the hostname set to the model number of the phone. Unfortunately Yealink removed SNMP from their VOIP phones sometime in the distant past.
