[cisco-voip] how to control default load (for factory reset) for phones

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Thanks Brian. I see that those are updated as you mention, but my concern is more about the factory reset behaviour. 

For example, starting point is firmware v9 SCCP installed, at that point if i factory reset a phone, it should bring up v9 SCCP. 

Let's say then, I install v9.5 SIP for testing. The process of installing that firmware updates the default file on the server that it uses in the event of a factory reset. I'm almost positive this happened to me. I don't think I can install software that is already installed in order to update this file. And I'm not sure how modifying the device defaults page will help since it's stuck on SIP. I can see how updating the version would help for the existing protocol. 

I will spend some time with my phones and my existing cluster to see what happens when a factory reset is done on each phone. 

But any other comments would be greatful.

Lelio, 

When a firmware or device pack is installed, the device defaults under Device->Device Settings->Device Defaults should update with the new load names for SIP and/or the SCCP firmware. IF the phone is added in CallManager, whatever protocol it is set for will determine which phone load name (SCCP or SIP) is put in the phone’s SEP<MAC>.cnf.xml config file. 

If the phone is not already added in CallManager and you’re using auto-registration, the file will use what the “Auto Registration Phone Protocol” (SCCP or SIP) is set for under System->Enterprise Parameters.

>From what I recall, the default load, i.e. SCCP vs SIP, is controlled by a file, which is, in turn, created/updated whenever a new firmware or device pack is installed on the server. Can anyone confirm this, or, help me understand how to manipulate these files? 

I want to make sure, going forward, that if I make changes to my system, if we have to reset a phone with factory reset steps, that it doesn't download SIP first, then SCCP, or download a higher version of SCCP only to have to downgrade. 

I've seen this happen on my cluster but have also heard about it on the list as well. 

Thanks!
