[Asterisk-Users] Why remotely reboot SIP phones?

[Steve Langstaff]

Do you mean changes to the phone's configuration, or changes to Asterisk's configuration?

Polycom phones need a reboot after making configuration changes.

We have to reboot our phones sometimes when we do something server side, 
mainly because the cisco firmware doesn't seem to handle everything very 
well.  Usually it's just to pull new configs though, as we test more 
features and roll them out.
