[asterisk-users] cisco ip phne 7911G with asterisk

[Anciso, Roy]

Now that you have your 7911g phone up running, would you mind checking
the audio quality when leaving a voicemail for on another local asterisk
user from this phone? I have a 7911g and I hear loud audio taps from the
phone.  The 7961g phone doesn't have this issue.  I'm just trying to
rule out the phone.  
Thanks

Asterisk. I have loaded the 8.3.3 SIP Firmware of Cisco through a DHCP
and a TFTP server. All seems ok  but a file that is downloaded :
term06.default.loads (I understand that is for 7906 model) instead of
term11.default.loads (I understand that is for 7911 model). In any case
the phone reboots well.

have this file in the server and it tries to download every few seconds
whitout asking another file. According to what I have read this file
shouldn't be neccesary and, when the phone cann't obtain it, the phone
should ask SEP<mac>.xml.cnf. I don't know if I'm doing something bad or
if it could be a issue of the firmware version.

It was a TFTP server issue. The classical TFTP server used in the unix
world responds to queries with bad error codes. I finally
used aTFTPD that does this well so the phone understands that there's no
CTLSEP file and then asks for SEP file.
