[asterisk-users] Cisco 7906g & SIP

Sasa,

It sounds like you need to set the dhcp option for 'next-server' in order to point the phone to the ip address of the tftp server. Alternatively, if the load on the phone is new enough, there is an 'alternate tftp server' setting that you can point to the ip address of your tftp server as well.

Hi Duncan,
when my Cisco phone is started I don't view nothing in my tftp logs, in
other words when cisco phone startup it don't call my tftp server for to try
search configuration files.
Regards.
