[cisco-voip] Securing phones

[Ryan Ratliff]

Actually I think it's good to be hesitant about upgrading when things 
are working well.  The exception should be when there is a feature or 
bug fix you need in the newer version.  In this case if you want FAC 
you need to upgrade :)

Good to know.  May make the sell that much easier.  Like I said, I'm all
for 4.1.3, but management tends to be reluctant about any changes.
Especially when things are working pretty well.

Thanks!

If stability is a question, I can say with certainty I've seen better
results with CM 4.1.3 than anything in the 4.0 line.

Just worries about down-time and stability really.  Being free really
helps.  I'll be proposing it to them this week.  Hopefully, we can get
the go-ahead for it.

Thanks for all your help everyone!

Hi Court,

CallManager 3.3(4) or later in the 3.3 train or 4.1(2) or later in the
4.1 train.

So long as you purchased a SAS or SASU contract, the upgrade from 4.0 to

4.1 is free.  Are there other impediments to your upgrade?
