Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is the IP address setting used to reboot a phone when the phone requests a download of its configuration file and firmware. The TFTP/Config Server article, which provides the IP addresses used for programming your phones, is organized by the instance (cluster) that is assigned to your organization.
To change the TFTP setting on the Cisco model 7942 and 7962 phones used in your Sky phone system, use the following instructions :
- Press the Settings button on the telephone.
- Select Network Configuration from the menu that appears.
- In the Network Configuration menu, scroll down to select Alternate TFTP.
- If Alternate TFTP is set to No, go to step 5. If Alternate TFTP is set to Yes, go to step 6.
- Press * * # and then set to Yes. Do not press the Save soft key.
- Scroll up to select TFTP Server 1.
If you are configuring a backup TFTP 2 server, scroll down to select TFTP Server 2. - Press the Edit soft key.
If you do not see the Edit soft key, press * * #. - Type the TFTP address to equal the value of your desired instance (cluster).
Make sure to press * on the keypad OR press the period (.) soft key to enter the periods that separate the numeric TFTP values. - Press the Validate soft key.
- Press the Save soft key.
Your phone will now reboot with the TFTP address you have entered.
