[cisco-voip] Tools to generate firmware reports

[Matthew Ballard]

I figured out one trick with some help from TAC when I had the same
issue (probably would help with the 7925), but at least for wired phones
on Cisco switched, the phone reports the firmware version using CDP to
the switch.  The following command will let you view the firmware for
all reasonably new SCCP devices:
sh cdp nei det | include SCCP

It should work with older ones as well, but you will need to change the
include line (the 7940 reports their firmware differently, and SIP would
be different as well).

This way you can check a bunch of phones instead of one at a time.

I have to connect to each phone and get the xml device info to find this
out.  The crazy you can't go to 8.5.3 without having 8.5.2 first caused
me plenty of trouble.

I don't have any 7925 phones deployed, so it works for the rest of them.

Hi

I'm looking fore tools that can generate reports on what firmware phones
in my network have. I have a unix script that can get such info from
wired phones but it isn't able to get this info from 7921/7925 phones.

Are there any tools that can do this? Would like to have something
windows based so other people than me could generate the reports.
