[cisco-voip] Changing TFTP address dynamically

[Seth Call]

Hi Tim:  I basically want a phone to register with a different cluster,
but only when a user directs it to do so.  In this way they can get the
device config off of a different cluster dynamically.   So... to get it
to register to a different cluster is easiest done by changing the TFTP
address to the other cluster, correct?  
 
Thanks Lelio, you say ##*## won't work eh?  That's disappointing news.
It's easy enough to automate that, but if that's not a sure way to get
the phone to take the changes, and you are also saying I have to use the
ccmadmin website... Maybe I could simulate web requests, but isn't
ccmadmin run on an applet clientside? Hmmm...
 
So, now I'm trying to think how to cause CCM to send a reset
automatically.
I think certain AXL SOAP commands might cause the phone to process a
reset, but that's just my best guess from what I've seen using AXL
somewhat and not paying too close attention to what's going on.
 
Thanks everyone for their info;  I thought maybe DHCP could be per-MAC
but you guys kindly confirmed it.

What are you trying to accomplish? If you could explain why you want to
change the tftp server address per device, perhaps we can come up with a
different solution to accomplish the desired results.

Is there a way to change the TFTP address of a phone programmatically or
with a tool? 
 
Trying to make a service which does that... which if the user has to do
that through the services menu (the only way I know how), it sorta
defeats the purpose...
 
Thanks guys and gals,
