I have been testing the new Cisco 79x1 Auto Provisioning and it works great.
One thing that I don't know how to change is the default number of lines. If I create a new extension and specify the phone model and MAC address and create the extension it adds that extension to ALL the lines on the phone. I would like it to just add it to the first line by default. Now I know I can go into Tools-->Auto Provisioning and change these settings, but I would like the default to be just add the extension to the first line when the extension is created. Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the tip. I
Thanks for the tip. I modified the models.txt and changed the lines=2 to lines=1 and it worked great.
no, currently all provisioning, linksys, polycom, etc, are setup to provision all buttons to that 1 extension. If you want to alter that behavior you would need to copy models.txt into user_provisioning and alter the profile of the phone as if it had fewer line keys (Or create an entirely new 'model' ) that caps at 1 line.
