[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960 and Asterisk...not working...
Chuck, The first thing I would do is to upgrade the load to version 6 or higher. I'm running the latest...version 7.2. (I'm very happy with it) Are you using TFTP to load the configuration or manually configuring the 7960? I know it's a pain to setup TFTP just for a quick test. However, it's well worth it. If you have a CCO account you can find the latest load and config files here: http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/sip-ip-phone7960 After getting the infrastructure in place the following link was all I needed to get my 7960 phones working properly: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk%20phone%20cisco%2079xx However, the 7960 does have some basic error logging. I'm not sitting in front of it right now so I can't tell you the key combinations. Hint: I went from version 3.2 like you to 7.2. However, as an interim step I had to go to 6.0 first.

Hi! I have Asterisk up and running and have KPhone, IAXtel and FWD connected to it and working. I have a Cisco 7960 with version 3 (App. Load ID POS3-2-00) software. I have configured the 7960 correctly, I think; I have set everything - name, shortname, auth.name and display name set to 200. I have set the password to 200. I've set the proxy address/port to 192.168.1.117/5060. I can't seem to get the phone to connect to Asterisk, though Kphone works fine. Does anyone have an idea of what I am doing wrong?

Is there a place to get the software load for the Cisco phone without having a support contract? Buying the phone was costly enough, but now needing to pay for the software to "fix" it is really poor!

Yes, that's tough. A couple things though... 1. To be fair...My 3.2 load did work against Asterisk. I just feel that troubleshooting should begin with the latest bug fixes applied if possible. 2. You may be able to contact Cisco technical support to get the latest firmware / files. Before I put a contract on "one" of my phones just for the purposes of downloading the latest loads I was able to convince one of the techs to provide me the latest load and supporting files for free. - It's worth a shot!

They're not content to charge a premium price for their hardware; they make you pay for their bugfixes, too. In the ideal world companies that treat their customers this way would not be able to compete, but Cisco's de facto monopoly in the router market allows them to treat their customers as if they were their inmates. Not much choice until somebody else comes along with something as good or better for the same price, and makes them compete.
