[cisco-voip] upgrading firmware on phones without CallManager?

So I think I got things setup right, but the phones don't seem to be doing what they should be doing. 

The TFTP server is seeing requests for <MAC>.cnf.xml files, which fail, then the phone requests the default file. Then after I while I see the request for the firmware files. 

However, the phone is simply going through the cycle of configuring VLAN over and over. 

The DHCP server on the switch shows an DHCP bind for the MAC address of the phone, but on the phone I still see 255.255.255.255 and the DHCP server and no IP information. 

It's been around 10 minutes. I have already erased configuration on the phone. 

The subnet is 10.104.0.0 255.255.0.0 with 10.104.1.1 as the switch/dhcp server and 10.104.1.67 as the laptop/tftp server. 

Thoughts?

Even better! Thanks Wes. 


I'm thinking this will be a quicker way to upgrade our inventory phones rather than trying to configure them in CallManager.

Workaround #2: use http to retrieve the file. 

Example: 
http://mycmserver:6970/XMLDefault.cnf.xml 

This works on all versions after 04.1(03)ES37. See CSCsb38067 for a bit of background.

FYI 


The other day I tried to grab the cnf.xml file from CUCM via TFTP command line, and Windows 7 was telling me there was no such command as TFTP. As it turns out, the TFTP client (and the Telnet client) was not enabled by default. Here's how you enable it: 


    1. Click start and type "windows feature" in the search box 
    2. Click on "Turn Windows features on or off" 
    3. Scroll the list, and check the box for TFTP Client (and Telnet Client if you need it) 
    4. Click OK

Just PumpKIN/tftp get XMLDefault.cnf.xml from UCM TFTP. 



e.g. 

U:\>tftp 10.59.192.18 GET XMLDefault.cnf.xml c:\temp\XMLDefault.cnf.xml 

Transfer successful: 5990 bytes in 1 second, 5990 bytes/s

Thanks so much everyone for the help. 





Just curious, is there somewhere on my current CCM TFTP server where I can get a sample from my system?

Attached a screenshot of what XMLDefault.cnf.xml would look like.

Is it possible to upgrade the firmware on a 7940/60 without CCM TFTP server? 

Can I do it with a TFTP server on a laptop and manually setting the TFTP address on the phone? 

What else do I need in the root directory of the TFTP server other than the software? Some XML config file? 

I searched the archives and NetPro but no luck.
