[cisco-voip] Phone Registration Rejected

[Ryan Ratliff]

The service parameters for TFTP are accessible via the CCMAdmin  
Service->Service Parameters.

When the phone requests the config file from the TFTP server the TFTP  
server has the file cached in memory so there is no need to get it  
from disk.  Every time TFTP starts it builds the config files from  
the CCM database.

Ok, can you please help me understand how the phone sees the file if  
I can't see it on the disk?  I don't quite understand the caching  
feature.
Also where do you access the TFTP service parameters, the Windows MMC  
services snap-in or in CM somewhere?

thanks

access and speed up tftp requests.  Unless you go into advanced TFTP
service parameters and disable caching you will never see the config
files on the hard disk.

ok, i do see a read request for an xmldefault.cnf.xml from the phone
to the cm server but i don't see that file in my tftp directory. Any
ideas as to why that is?

default.cnf was only used by old phone loads (in CM3.1 we changed
to .cnf.xml files).  that file will probably not be built unless you
change the TFTP service parameter from 'build selective' to 'build all'.

only VERY old phone loads should need that file.
