[cisco-voip] SRST Newbie Question

[Kelemen Zoltan]

Unless you have a firmware version mismatch, you do not need to download 
the phone firmware over and over again, so I'd say there's no burning 
need to provide the firmware files through tftp.

Configuration files are provided through tftp, that may be more 
important, however, the SRST router can act as a tftp server, and will 
generate the cnf files on its own if configured.

Also, functionality of the phone in SRST mode depends on the SRST and 
not by the existance (or lack of) a tftp server. As far as I understood, 
a CME/SRST mode offers much more functionality for example, than a SRST 
only mode.

regards,
  Zoltan
