Upgrading the Cisco MGCP IP Phone Firmware

You can use one of two methods to upgrade the firmware on your Cisco MGCP IP phones. You can
upgrade the firmware on one phone at a time using the phone-specific configuration, or you can upgrade
the firmware on a system of phones using the default configuration file.

Upgrading to Release 5.0 and Release 5.1

When you upgrade to Release 5.0 or Release 5.1, you will download a ZIP archive instead of a file as in
earlier releases. Contained in the archive are the unsigned (.bin) and signed (.sbn) binary images.
Specific information for each release is as follows:
Application Load ID—Current software image on the phone.
Boot Load ID—Bootstrap loader image version that is manufactured on the phone. This image name
does not change.
To upgrade the firmware on just one phone at a time, you upgrade the image_version in the
phone-specific configuration file. To upgrade the firmware on a system of phones, specify the
image_version in the default configuration file and do not define the image_version in the
phone-specific configuration files.
Ensure that the latest version of the Cisco MGCP IP phone firmware has been copied from
Cisco.com to the root directory of your TFTP server.
