[cisco-voip] CTL question

[Ed Leatherman]

I have the packet cap file, was just wondering if it was possible to pull the transfered files out of it to look at all at once—

Phone that previously was not working now starts working and registers. Seems like there is something wrong with the config file that was generated when they were first configured? I would have though a TFTP restart would have fixed that. Seems like we may have a work around for this even if we can't figure out what happened.

> We ran out of maintenance window waiting for publisher to restore and db replication, so I left the TFTP server alone for another weekend. Also since pub is not registering phones or running TFTP, I did not resign the CTL file to avoid any more cluster wide phone reboots. I plan on resigning it after I migrate TFTP this weekend.
> Up until now i haven't had any issues with leaving the CTL file alone; however this morning we tried deploying some brand new 8945's and they are coming up with authentication error on their config files, which I can't figure out why at this point. I can't reproduce the issue on my office phone (also a 8945), it happily downloads the current config files without complaint, even if I delete CTL/ITL.
> Am I barking up the wrong tree here with this? shouldn't the phones just be checking the TFTP server's signature, which didnt change, against the CTL or ITL?
> I asked the technician to delete the security files on the 8900s in case for some reason they had a CTL or ITL from the factory, said it didnt help. I'm having him bring a couple phones back to troubleshoot with and verify though.
