Office 365 PBX - Does Microsoft manage the Polycom VVX software version?

[Anonymous]

I assume they do as our phones update by themselves and if we install a newer version from 'Software available at Polycom Hosted server' under the Software Upgrade option on the VVX then it revets back by itself.

So phone are now at 5.4.1.17653 which is not a version on the drop down list.

Does anyone have any details as to what Microsoft do here and where can I get info on their VVX versions and what is in them?

....and before suggesing I should call Microsoft, tried that and support have no idea!

Really just trying to undstand what's going on.

Thank you
