asterisk users - Oct 2006 - Cisco 7971G-GE & SEP{MAC}.cnf.xml

I have been forced to introduce a Cisco 7971G-GE into my network, because
"it has a pretty screen."  I have wasted nearly three days fighting
with the
thing based upon the information on voip-info.org and a few other forums.

 

Asterisk is reporting a 401 Unauthorized.  Which typically means bad
username/password combination.  Unfortunately, all of the usernames and
passwords I see in the config file, are as they appear in the sip.conf.  

 

Is it possible to get further debug information from Asterisk regarding the
401-ie.  What Asterisk doesn't like about it?

 

The chances that the information I have obtained from voip-info.org or the
other forums that discuss the 7971G-GE and Asterisk could be incomplete.
Would anyone happen to have a working configuration for the 7971G-GE
(running SIP70.8-0-4SR1S) they would care to share, or allow me to purchase.

 

I really need to get the child who signs my paycheck his "pretty
screen."

 

Thanks in advance,

 

kw

 Downgrade the firmware. 8.0.2SR1 is reported to be working at
multiple location and I have a 7970 back in my office that is working
as well.

 Multiple folks have reported issues with the later versions of the firmware.

Hi Kelvin!

I have Cisco 7970 and firmware SIP70.8-0-2SR1S and I use "Another
SEP<mac>.xml.cnf example" from this page
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+phone+cisco+7970+SIP
I suggest you to try the same firmware and same conf file.

Best regards,
