Cisco Small Business SPA300 Series, SPA500 Series, and WIP310 IP Phone Administration Guide
Phones should be updated to the latest firmware before using any administration
features. There are several ways to update your firmware:
SIP Phones
• Cisco SPA9000 Voice System Setup Wizard—If you are using the
Cisco SPA IP phones with a Cisco SPA9000 Voice System, see the
Cisco SPA9000 Voice System Setup Wizard User Guide for instructions.
(The Setup Wizard does not support Cisco SPA300 Series IP phones; you
must use a different process to upgrade that firmware.)
• Autoprovisioning—A configuration file that includes firmware upgrade
information is downloaded by a phone when it is powered on or configured
to do so. The configuration file (also referred to as a profile) includes
parameters that direct how and when the phone firmware is to be updated.
See the "Updating Profiles and Firmware" section on page 161
information.

• Firmware Update Executable File—Download the firmware update utility
from the related product page on

subnetwork as the Cisco SPA IP phones.
