Updating Firmware
Cisco Small Business SPA300 Series, SPA500 Series, and WIP310 IP Phone Administration Guide
Phones should be updated to the latest firmware before using any administration
features. There are several ways to update your firmware, depending on the
phone model and call control system with which the phone is used.

Upgrading Cisco SPA30X, SPA50X, and SPA51X IP Phones

With SIP Call Control Systems
• Firmware Update Executable File—Download the firmware update utility
from the related product page on
double-clicking the executable file. Your computer must be on the same
subnetwork as the Cisco SPA IP phones.
• Autoprovisioning—A configuration file that includes firmware upgrade
information is downloaded by a phone when it is powered on or configured
to do so. The configuration file (also referred to as a profile) includes
parameters that direct how and when the phone firmware is to be updated.
See the "Updating Profiles and Firmware" section on page 178
information.
• Cisco SPA9000 Voice System Setup Wizard—If you are using the
Cisco SPA IP phones with a Cisco SPA9000 Voice System, see the
Cisco SPA9000 Voice System Setup Wizard User Guide for instructions.
(The Setup Wizard does not support Cisco SPA300 Series IP phones or
SPA51X phones; you must use a different process to upgrade those
models.)
With SPCP Call Control Systems
You must use the management interface for the call control system to upgrade the
software on your phones (for example, Cisco Configuration Assistant, when the
phones are used with the Cisco UC5XX).
