# Algo Device Management Platform (ADMP) User Guide

The Algo Device Management Platform (ADMP) is a cloud-based device management solution for managing, monitoring, and configuring Algo IP endpoints from any location. Service providers and system administrators can use ADMP to manage, monitor, and configure Algo IP endpoints across multiple locations and networks.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Devices must have firmware version 5.2 or higher installed to be managed with ADMP. To access all the latest ADMP features, devices must be on the most recent firmware version available.

## Setting up Your Account

To use ADMP, you must set up your account, tenant accounts, and licenses.

### Account Tiers

There are three types of ADMP accounts:

| **Trial** | A Trial account is a free 3-month account with access to 25 device licenses. To sign up for a trial account, fill out the form at [https://www.algosolutions.com/admp-demo-license/](https://www.algosolutions.com/admp-demo-license/.). |
| --- | --- |
| **Pro** | A Pro account uses device licenses that have been purchased or renewed. An Algo Support Team member sets up a Pro account after you’ve purchased device licenses. Device licenses may be purchased at [https://www.algosolutions.com/product/admp/](https://www.algosolutions.com/product/admp/). |
| **Perpetual** | A Perpetual account is available for Algo Authorized Integrators. To learn more about the Algo Authorized Integrator Program, visit [https://www.algosolutions.com/integrator/](https://www.algosolutions.com/integrator/). |

After you have signed up for a demo, purchased ADMP device licenses, or have become an Algo Authorized Integrator, an Algo Support Team member will reach out to set up account users.

### User Permissions

You can access an ADMP account as either an **Admin** or a **Viewer**.

This table lists their different permissions.

| **Admin** | **Viewer** |
| --- | --- |
| An admin can access all pages and perform actions where applicable. | A viewer will only be able to view all pages. |

The Algo Support Team will be able to assist with adding new users, removing users, and updating user types upon request. There is no limit to the number of users you can have on an account. To add or remove users, the account owner should contact [support@algosolutions.com](mailto:support@algosolutions.com) for assistance.

### Licenses

ADMP licenses are per device, not per person or account. Device licenses are purchased and renewed annually in bundles of 25. An account can have up to 10,000 licenses.

You may purchase additional device licenses through an Algo reseller, distributor, or on the Algo website here: [https://www.algosolutions.com/product/admp/](https://www.algosolutions.com/product/admp/)[.](https://www.algosolutions.com/admp-demo-license/%20.)

### Multi-Tenant

To enable multi-tenancy, please reach out to the Algo support Team at [support@algosolutions.com](mailto:support@algosolutions.com).

Multi-tenancy allows ADMP account holders to manage multiple deployments, or tenant accounts, from one main ADMP account. When multi-tenancy is in use, an ADMP account holder will log into ADMP and select the tenant account to view. From here, a user can monitor and manage devices connected to a tenant account.

### Tenant Account Permissions

Permissions differ based on the type of tenant account.

The number of tenant accounts an ADMP account can have is unlimited.

To set up a new tenant, please contact the Algo Support Team at support@algosolutions.com.

The table below outlines the available permissions for each user type.

| **User Type** | **Permissions** |
| --- | --- |
| Administrator | - Add users and configure user permissions (manage, view only, ZTP) - Change the display name - Search for users and account titles to see who has access to multiple tenant accounts |
| Additional Users | - Set notification preferences |

### Single Sign-On

To enable SSO, please contact the Algo support Team at [support@algosolutions.com](mailto:support@algosolutions.com).

Single sign-on (SSO) for ADMP is available through a Microsoft account. SSO makes ADMP access seamless for designated users while improving account security. To provide SSO, ADMP uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), Microsoft’s enterprise cloud-based identity and access management (IAM) solution.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> A current limitation of SSO in ADMP is that one Azure AD can only be associated with one ADMP account, but not each tenant account. For example, a service provider who uses multiple tenant accounts for each of their customers can only have one Azure AD for their main account. Each customer, or tenant, cannot also use the same Azure AD separately.

However, a main account and tenant account may use separate Azure ADs, allowing SSO to be used for both a main account login or a single tenant login.

#### Setting up SSO

Before setting up SSO, it should be noted that users with SSO will no longer be able to log in using a password. Only one login option can be applied to an account.

**To set up SSO:**

1. Sign in to the [Microsoft Entra admin center](https://entra.microsoft.com/) as at least a [Cloud Application Administrator](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/permissions-reference#cloud-application-administrator).

## Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP)

The Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) service automatically directs devices to a server during startup to download their configuration files. This makes deploying many devices faster and easier in large settings like schools, factories, or businesses.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> - All Algo IP endpoints shipped after November 2022 support Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). Devices shipped before November 2022 do not have ZTP enabled by default, even after a firmware upgrade. To enable ZTP on these devices, please contact Algo Support.
> - ZTP is enabled on Algo devices by default. However, the setting is disabled as soon as you manually configure the device. ZTP remains active only during the initial installation or after a factory reset.

#### Security

ZTP is secured using TLS mutual authentication with certificates. Each Algo IP endpoint has a unique device certificate installed at the factory, tied to its MAC address.

When the device boots up, it automatically connects to Algo’s ZTP server (`ztp.algosolutions.com`) and establishes a secure TLS connection using its device certificate. This ensures all data transferred is fully encrypted.

Once a MAC address is registered in the ZTP configuration, it is locked to that account and cannot be claimed by another—preventing accidental or malicious hijacking. However, if the MAC address is removed from the configuration, it becomes available to be claimed by another account.

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/202411-nov---ug-admp-image-mru1694y.png)

### Using ZTP Service

Follow these steps to use the ZTP service:

1. Obtain ZTP service if you currently do not have it.

If you don’t currently have ZTP service, contact Algo Support to request access.

See [Obtaining ZTP Service](/docs/admp-guide#obtaining-ztp-service).
2. Upload configuration files

Upload a list of device MAC addresses and a redirect or configuration file to the ZTP server ([ztp.algosolutions.com](http://ztp.algosolutions.com)).

See [Uploading Configuration Files](/docs/admp-guide#uploading-configuration-files).
3. Map configuration files to devices

After the mapping is done, when the Algo endpoint is powered on for the first time, it automatically connects to the ZTP server and retrieves the redirect or configuration file associated with its MAC address.

See [Uploading Configuration Files](/docs/admp-guide#uploading-configuration-files).

#### Obtaining ZTP Service

Algo’s ZTP service is free and can be accessed through ADMP. While full ADMP access requires a license, no license is needed to use ZTP.

You can request a ZTP-only ADMP account free of charge. A ZTP-only account holder can only configure mass provisioning for devices, but they can not manage devices. However, you can add a device management license to your ZTP-only account at any time.

Devices shipped before November 2022 do not have ZTP enabled by default, even after a firmware upgrade. To enable ZTP on these devices, please contact Algo Support.

**To obtain a ZTP-only account:**

- Submit a [ZTP request form](https://www.algosolutions.com/resources/ztp/).

#### Creating Configuration Files

It is recommended that you download an existing device configuration file and use it when creating a custom one.

**To download a configuration file from the device web interface:**

1. Go to **System** → **Maintenance**.
2. Select **Download Configuration File** from the **Backup / Restore Configuration** section.

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/202411-nov---ug-admp-image-0umupr63.png)

#### Configuration File Requirements

Observe the following requirements to create your configuration files for use with ZTP:

- It must be in the format *.txt*.
- It must be a valid Algo configuration file. Any settings not specified in the file will retain their default factory values.
- To redirect your devices to a provisioning server, your configuration file should contain:

```plaintext
prov.server.method = static 
prov.server.static = https://some-local-server 
prov.sync.endtime = 03:00:00 
prov.sync.frequency = daily 
prov.sync.time = 02:00:00 
prov.use = 1 
prov.i = 1
```
- To enable ADMP cloud monitoring on your device, your configuration file must contain:

```plaintext
iot.mqtt.ka = 30 
iot.tenant = [ADMP account ID] 
iot.use = 1
iot.sync.conf = 1
```

Where:

- `iot.use` Enable the device to connect to ADMP.
- `iot.tenant`: Specify the ADMP account that the device wishes to connect to.
- `iot.syn.conf` : Allow the device to send its configurations to ADMP..

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Algo’s ZTP service is primarily meant to redirect traffic to your provisioning server. While it will accept files containing additional settings, such as SIP parameters, it is not intended for this purpose.

**Related Links:**

- [Obtaining Your ADMP Account ID](/docs/admp-guide#obtaining-your-account-id)

## Multicast Manager

The Multicast Manager simplifies multicast configuration across zones and devices. You can bulk add, remove, or configure multicast devices, ensuring consistent zone configurations across all devices.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> The Multicast Manager supports regular multicast only (RTP multicast). For multicast configurations involving Poly devices, use the device’s web interface instead.

It provides an intuitive interface to view devices by transmitter, receiver, or multicast zone.

**Zone View**

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/File Manager.png)

**Device View**

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/image-KDPVVLUD.png)

You can customize device views by showing or hiding zones or device tags that are not in use.

You can also search for devices by entering part of an ID, name, product model, or tag

#### Prerequisites

Make sure your device meets the following prerequisites before using the Multicast Manager:

- **ADMP Cloud Monitoring:** Must be enabled on the device.
- **Allow Configuration File Sync:** Must be enabled on the device.
- **Firmware version:** Device firmware must be version 5.6 or later.
- **Supported devices:** All Algo IP endpoints are supported. The Algo 8300 IP Controller is not supported.

#### **Multicast Settings Synchronization Between ADMP and the Device Web Interface**

Multicast settings are synchronized between ADMP and the device web interface based on the **Heartbeat Interval** configured in the device’s **ADMP Cloud Monitoring**.

To ensure timely synchronization, make sure the **Allow Configuration File Sync** option is enabled on the device so ADMP can query and display multicast settings stored on the device.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> The Multicast Manager is only intended for RTP multicast. If your device is using any of the following multicast types:
> 
> - Poly Group Page
> - Poly Push-to-Talk
> - Regular RTP + Poly Group Page
> - Regular RTP + Poly Push-to-Talk
> 
> Do not add the device to the Multicast Manager or configure multicast settings if it is part of Poly multicasting. Otherwise, the multicast type is automatically changed to RTP.

**To ensure settings synchronization between ADMP and the device web interface:**

1. Go to **Advanced Settings** → **Admin**.
2. Go to the **ADMP Cloud Monitoring** section and set the following:
  - **Heartbeat Interval**: Select how often ADMP should check the status of your device.
  - **Allow Configuration File Sync**: Enable ADMP to query and display settings stored on the device.
3. Select **Save**.

### Feature Overview

The Multicast Manager uses “site” as a configuration container where multicast settings are defined once and automatically inherited by all devices assigned to that site.

Using a site ensures consistent multicast zone settings across all devices and eliminates the need to log in to each device’s web interface to configure multicast settings individually.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> - Site settings are applied to all devices added to it, regardless of the device’s multicast role (**Transmitter**, **Receiver**, or **None**). This ensures consistent multicast settings for all devices such as zone definitions, transmitter output codec, and receiver audio synchronization.
> - Site settings are not limited to the device’s current multicast role.
> 
> For example, if a device is currently configured as a transmitter, the site’s receiver settings will automatically apply if the device later switches to a receiver (whether the change is made through the device web interface or via Multicast Manager), and vice versa.

Follow these steps to create a site and manage your devices:

1. [Creating a Site](/v1/docs/admp-multicast-manager#creating-a-site)

Create a site, configure site settings, and add devices to it.
2. [Configuring Your Device's Multicast Settings](/v1/docs/admp-multicast-manager#configuring-your-devices-multicast-settings)

Configure the device’s multicast mode, the number of zones it listens to as a receiver, or the target zone it multicasts to as a transmitter.

#### About Adding Devices to the Site

When you add a device to a site, if the device has the following settings:

- **Multicast Mode**: **Transmitters** or **Receivers**, and
- **Multicast Type**: **Regular (RTP)**

The device is added to the **Transmitters** or **Receivers** section, as per its **Multicast Mode** setting.

Otherwise, the device is added to the **Unconfigured Devices** section.

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/Screenshot 2026-06-30 103130 (1).png)

### Creating a Site

To use the Multicast Manager, you must first create a site and add devices to it. You can create only one site per ADMP account.

**To create a site:**

1. Go to **Multicast Manager** and select **Create a new Site**.

![](https://cdn.document360.io/f6f5e62d-d280-487f-9da7-5926ffd53b5f/Images/Documentation/Screenshot 2026-06-30 103928.png)
2. Enter a name for your site.
3. Configure **Transmitter Settings**.

| **Settings** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| Transmitter Output Codec | Select an audio encoding format for the Transmitter device to use when sending output to the Receivers. Supported formats include: - G.711 ulaw - G.722 - Opus - L16 |
| Output Packetization Time (milliseconds) | Select the size of the audio packets the Transmitter sends to the Receivers from the drop-down list. The default of 20 milliseconds is recommended unless a different value is specifically required for compatibility with other devices. |
| Multicast TTL | Only change the multicast time-to-live (TTL) setting if custom routing is configured on the network that specifically routes multicast packets between subnets and a longer TTL is required. This ensures packets are not bounced back and forth in a network identity. When the TTL is reached, the router drops the packet. |
4. Configure **Receiver Settings**.

| Settings | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Audio Sync | When using multicast with other third-party devices that have a delay in their audio path, the audio on the 8199 may be heard slightly earlier than on these other devices. Use this feature to add a small delay on the 8199 to synchronize with these other devices. |
| Stream End Timeout (milliseconds, 100 ~ 1000) | Time to wait after last received packet before confirming that a multicast stream has ended. Lower values allow faster switching between streams from different zones. |

1. Configure **RTP Control Protocol (RTCP)** settings.

| **Settings** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| RTCP Port Selection | Select how a port will be chosen to send or receive RTCP packets: - **Disabled**: Disable RTCP. - **Next Higher Port**: RTCP packets are sent and received on the next consecutive higher port number relative to the RTP port. For example, if RTP on port *N*, then RTCP packets are sent to port (*N+1*). - **Multiplexed on Same Port:** RTCP packets are multiplexed with RTP packets and sent over the same UDP port as the RTP audio stream, eliminating the need for a separate RTCP port. |

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> If **Next Higher Port** is selected, ensure that the default multicast zone definitions are modified so that zones are only assigned to even-numbered ports, leaving the next higher odd-numbered ports free for RTCP packets.
2. Configure **Basic Zone Definitions**. Enter the IP address and port for your desired zones.

| **Setting** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Multicast Type** | Select **Regular (RTP)** to multicast only to Algo IP endpoints or multicast-enabled phones. > [!WARNING] > Warning > > DO NOT select any of the following： > > - **Poly Group Page** > - **Poly Push-to-Talk** > - **Regular RTP + Poly Group Page** > - **Regular RTP + Push-to-Talk** > > This will move your device from Transmitter to **Unconfigured Devices**. > > > > The Multicast Manager supports regular multicast only (RTP multicast). For multicast configurations involving Poly devices, use the device’s web interface instead. |
| **Number of Zones** | - **Basic Zones Only**: Use only the nine basic zones. - **Basic and Expanded Zones**: Use the nine basic zones and 50 expanded zones. |
| **Zone Selection Mode/Polycom Group Selection Mode** | Determines how the multicast zone is selected when transmitting audio. |
| **DTMF Selectable Zone** | Allows the multicast zone to be selected during a SIP paging call using DTMF keypad input. The **Transmitter Single Zone** setting does not apply to paging calls in this mode. This setting applies only to IP speakers, IP Display Speakers, and IP Paging Adapters. When this option is selected, the device is added as a transmitter to all available zones (as defined in the device’s web interface **Basic Settings** → **Multicast** → **Number of Zones**). However, the active transmitting zone is determined by the DTMF tone you dial. |
| **Single Zone** | All multicast audio is transmitted to one predefined zone. No DTMF input is required. This setting applies only to IP speakers, IP Display Speakers, and IP Paging Adapters. |
| **Transmitter Single Zone** | Select the default zone for the multicast stream to be sent to. This zone is used for multicast actions unless an option is available for a custom zone with specific parameters. If **DTMF Selectable Zone** is chosen, this single zone setting will not apply to paging since the zone will be dynamically selected per call using DTMF. However, this single zone setting will still apply to the ring extension and relay-triggered events. This setting applies only to IP speakers, IP Display Speakers, and IP Paging Adapters. |
| **Speaker Playback Zones/Speaker Playback Groups** | Allow the Multicast Transmitter device to play the audio or paging locally through its own speaker for selected zones/groups. This is useful if using **DTMF Selectable Zone** mode (or **More Page Extensions** per zone) and wishing to make the Transmitter a member of only certain zones/groups. This setting applies only to IP speakers, IP Display Speakers, and IP Paging Adapters. |
| **Polycom Zone** | Enter the same Multicast IP Address & Port number as configured on the Polycom phones. |
| **Polycom Default Channel** | Enter the target group in a Polycom paging environment. |
6. Select **Push to Device**.

This action closes the **Remote Device UI** and returns you to the Multicast Manager.
