Cisco Small Business IP Telephony Devices Provisioning Guide
TFTP Resync
The IP Telephony Device supports multiple network protocols for retrieving
configuration profiles. The most basic profile transfer protocol is TFTP (RFC1350).
TFTP is widely used for the provisioning of network devices within private LAN
networks. Although not recommended for deployments of endpoints across the
Internet, it can be convenient for deployment within small organizations, for in-
house preprovisioning, and for development and testing.
The following configuration profile format uses the XML-style syntax:
<flat-profile>
<GPP_A> 12345678
</GPP_A>
</flat-profile>
The <flat-profile> element tag encloses all parameter elements to be
recognized by the IP Telephony Device. The example above defines one
parameter value, the first general purpose parameter (GPP_A), with a value of
12345678.
Exercise
Within a LAN environment connect a PC and an IP Telephony Device to a hub,
switch, or small router.
Connect an analog phone to the Phone 1 port of the IP Telephony Device.
On the PC, install and activate a TFTP server.
Using a text editor, create the configuration profile and save it with the name
basic.txt in the virtual root directory of the installed TFTP server.
If possible, verify that the TFTP server is properly configured by requesting the
basic.txt file using a TFTP client other than the IP Telephony Device itself.
Preferably, the TFTP client should be running on a separate host from the server.
Using the analog phone, obtain the IP address of the IP Telephony Device (IVR
menu **** 110 #).
If the configuration has been modified since it was manufactured, perform factory
reset on it by using the IVR RESET option (**** 73738#).
Open the PC web browser on the admin/advanced configuration page.
For example, if the IP address is 192. 1 68. 1 . 1 00):
http://192.168.1.100/admin/advanced
