TFTP Resync

The phone supports multiple network protocols for retrieving configuration profiles. The most basic profile
transfer protocol is TFTP (RFC1350). TFTP is widely used for the provisioning of network devices within
private LAN networks. Although not recommended for the deployment of remote endpoints across the Internet,
TFTP can be convenient for deployment within small organizations, for in-house preprovisioning, and for
development and testing. See
preprovisioning. In the following procedure, a profile is modified after downloading a file from a TFTP server.
Procedure
Step 1 Within a LAN environment, connect a PC and a phone to a hub, switch, or small router.
Step 2
On the PC, install and activate a TFTP server.
Step 3 Use a text editor to create a configuration profile that sets the value for GPP_A to 12345678 as shown in the
example.
<flat-profile>
<GPP_A> 12345678
</GPP_A>
</flat-profile>
Step 4 Save the profile with the name basic.txt in the root directory of the TFTP server.
You can verify that the TFTP server is properly configured: request the basic.txt file by using a TFTP
client other than the phone. Preferably, use a TFTP client that is running on a separate host from the provisioning
server.
Step 5 Open the PC web browser to the admin/advanced configuration page. For example, if the IP address of the
phone is 192.168.1.100:
http://192.168.1.100/admin/advanced
Step 6
Select the Voice > Provisioning tab, and inspect the values of the general purpose parameters GPP_A through
GPP_P. These should be empty.
Step 7
Resync the test phone to the basic.txt configuration profile by opening the resync URL in a web browser
window.
