I guess I already know the answer, but I'll ask any way.

I have possibly several handsets that have been deployed that out of the 
box had their tftp server as 255.255.255.255.

They are setup for DHCP but the tftp server info doesn't seem to get 
updated, I have seen this before but we found it whilst actually 
deploying handsets so we checked them as they were rolled out.

As such they would have booted up ok and worked assuming they didn't 
have extension mobilty setup.

No we are in the process of upgrading the firmware for an upgrade due in 
a couple of weeks.

These handsets won't be able to upgrade is there an "easy" way of 
finding these devices?

They won't show up in the Device Firmware Load info as they don't talk 
to the cluster in the normal way.

The only way we have found to recify this is to visit a handset and 
erase its config.

we have 10 sites and 4000 handsets, so it could take awhile.

Currently running 5.1.2 going to 7.1.5su3
