[cisco-voip] Manually upload phone loads prior to upgrading

[Jim McBurnett]

If your going from 5 to 7 or 8...
I would upgrade the phones from CUCM first.. and not do the SRST router...
1 place to put the load...
If you are worried about the load on the server for all the upgrades or the WAN..

Just reset a device pool at a time...
Or use BAT to force the load and reset the phone in groups..

I've heard this thrown around the blogs but never thought about it. Now I find myself needing this so I ask the group -"Whats the best way to manually upload new phone loads"- prior to upgrading call manager to any version but most likely 5 to 7 or 8

Should I add the new load to the flash of each gateway and force phones into srst to upload the new load?
Is this right or what other way is the best way?



TIA
