[asterisk-users] ftp setup for Polycom phones

[Alex Robar]

I think what he meant was that you can use your DHCP server to pass a TFTP
boot server in a DHCP request. So if the remote router passes DHCP requests
to your server, and your server returns the boot server, your phone should
get it's config fine.

Unless I misunderstood what Jerry was saying.

I remember there was some talk of this on the TAUG group a while back. The
BIND server has the ability to pass a certain option number and value that
the phone will interpret as a TFTP boot server.
