[Asterisk-Users] setting Cisco 7940 to factory default

[Hoss Bazargani]

Hi Cory
thanks, I bought many 7940 from e-bay for our internal use. The last two I bought, the default "Cisco" password was changed so I can not use them. One is configured with MGCP and the other one is a SIP. I am configuring the phones in SIP format. so I am not familiar with CallManger and new to VoIP. Just started adminstrating and adding phones. 

If you have any suggestions or comments please let me know. I am willing to spend $10 per phone but more than that I am forced to sell them back in e-bay and buy a new/refurbished ones. 

regards
Hoss

  Hoss - You need to use ethereal / packet sniffer to see what IP address the phone is looking for when it boots up.  It should look for a TFTP server, in a CallManager environment the phones check for updates.

  Once you have the IP address it is looking for, you need to force feed it a new config file.

  I have posted a step by step procedure for this in the past, I'm not sure if there is an archive somewhere for the Asterisk-Users list, if there is, you should be able to search it and find past posts from me regarding resetting MGCP phones.

  If you need more help, shoot me an email off list, and I will track down the procedure documentation.

    Hi
    I have two quesitons:

    1.  I have two Cisco 7940 Phones that I would like to reconfigure. Unfortunatly the default factory password "cisco" has been changed to something else. Can anyone tell me/guide me as to how to factory default my phone so that I can make configuration changes. I am using SIP but one of the phones has been recofigured to MGCP.

    2.  I am already using Asterisk with my 7940, what do I need to configure so that I can use Cisco 7905 as well/
