Description
The TFTP server has configuration files, which define
parameters for connecting to Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and other
information for the phone.
The configuration file defines how the Cisco
Unified IP Phone communicates with Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and provides a phone
with its load ID. After obtaining the file from the TFTP
server, the phone attempts to make a connection to the
highest priority Cisco Unified Communications
Manager on the list. If security is implemented, the
phone makes a TLS connection. Otherwise, it makes a
non-secure TCP connection.
If the phone was manually added to the database, Cisco
Unified Communications Manager identifies the phone.
If the phone was not manually added to the database and
auto-registration is enabled in Cisco
Unified Communications Manager, the phone attempts
to auto-register itself in the Cisco
Unified Communications Manager database.
Auto-registration is disabled when security is
Note
enabled on Cisco Unified Communications
Manager. In this case, the phone must be
manually added to the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager database.
