AW: [Asterisk-Users] Unlock / install of Cisco 7940 IP Phone ?

[Mateo Meier]

Thx guys for the help.

I was able to unlock it.
I see the following under Network Configuration :

8 	TFTP Server 1
On 32 I can see "32 Alternate TFTP NO"

Shall I type in the IP of the TFTP Server there ? if yes, how ?

BTW: Im assuming that TFTP has to be installed on my local windown pc, and
then let my phone access it over the local ip, correct ? 

Thx again for ur help!

Grüsse / Best Regards
Matt

To convert the phone to SIP you have to unlock and set the TFTP server to
your TFTP server  address as explained below. But...


you also need to make sure you have a SIP image in the root directory of
your TFTP server and also edit the OS79XX.TXT file to contain only the SIP
image name (no .bin or .sbin extension). This should tell the phone what
image it should be running and will then start a tftp transaction to
download the SIP image.

Once the SIP image is loaded on your phone, you will have to reset the TFTP
Server addresses again so it can then download the SIP configuration files
(SIPdefault.cnf and SIP<MAC>.cnf)

good luck!
