[cisco-voip] quick sanity check on factory reset

Mon Sep 12 17:08:15 EDT 2011

Sure you can upload just the default file.  But you have to grab the zip file firmware that you would use for CME, extract it and put it up there.  Sometimes it’s easier just to let it do its thing.

for some reason, i don't like the idea of having to install just to change the default file, i'd try to figure out a way to edit the file manually so you can change it at will.....

that's just me. ;)

I highly recommend making sure the last firmware you install on a cluster being one of the special bridge firmware.  It makes it nice so you can reliably factory reset phones with old code or new code.

Just make sure you set the device defaults back to the “production firmware”

Solution:

Installed SCCP firmware 8.5(2) on all TFTP nodes
Set firmware version in device defaults to the desired end-result firmware – in this case 9.0(3)
Reboot phone previously factory reset

Kind of a ‘clunky’ solution for those of us who have a stock of unopened phones with firmware version lower than 8.3(3).

Thanks for the input everyone.  Sometimes it helps to think ‘out loud’.

If you factory reset, it does not get rid of the bridge requirement.

Install 8.5.2 firmware on to your system, but then change the device defaults back to 9.0.3.   Your phones will get the firmware in the default loads file, then register and get the database default load and all will be happy.

Which version was the bridge to the newer signature files, I thought it was it 8.3.3? Only thing I can think of offhand is to be careful of that. I had someone do a factory reset on a phone running older firmware and it would not load the default from our live CUCM tftp server (version 9.2.1ish). I had to get it upgraded from a separate TFTP to the bridge version - kinda surprised I thought the factory reset would have wiped everything and caused it to accept any firmware.

This should factory reset without issue, correct?
