[cisco-voip] TFTP escape characters

[Francisco Sedano]

Hi, friends.

 

I'm trying to configure a background image in a IPCommunicator
registered to a Callmanager Express. 

The problem I'm finding is that the IPCommunicator is asking to ftp
server for file Desktops\320x212x12\List.xml (note the backslashes). 

 

When I try to configure that filename in ios tftp server (with or
without an alias), IOS converts \320 to the letter P.

 

I've tried all combinations I can think of to escape that character, but
with no luck. Any ideas? 

7970 is perfect so far, since it asks for Desktops/320x212x12/List.xml

 

GW_VOZ_LAB#copy tftp://192.16.10.36/List.xml flash:Des

GW_VOZ_LAB#$/192.16.10.36/List.xml flash:Desktops\320x212x12\List.xml
