Hi all, I am working on building a new VoIP PBX. Looking at the current market for phones it seems my best "enterprise" options are the Cisco and Polycom phones. I have some experiance with the Cisco 7940G, but the process of flashing the phone with the SIP firmware left a bad taste in my mouth (not to mention the added expense for the phone). What is the general consensis about

Aloha, Does anyone know how to have a hot keypad on a Cisco 7960? It allows you to dial on-hook without press the SPEAKER button. Very handy once you get used to it! -Matt

Hi all, So I have been reading through the docs available online and the different threads on this list, but I cannot seem to get this phone to work. I have configured the OS79XX.TXT and SIP/SEP*.cnf files (see attached), when I configure the phone to point to my tftp server and reboot it I get this message: Connection received from 10.6.0.224 on port 50608 [09/02 12:16:11.750] Read request

Hi all, I have to transfer thousands of files across my network. We are looking at using rsync via a squid proxy to help improve the network tuning. What I am witnessing now is that with each successive file, the transfer speed resets to 0 and ramps up to 2.5MB/s. Is there anyway that I can group these transfers together to take better advantage of our bandwidth? I should be able to peak at

Aloha, Has anyone written an XML application for a Ciso 7960 phone running SIP? I can't find any examples anywhere! Anyone know of any resources for this? I have read it can render XML & can get input from the keypad & softkeys. Aloha, Matt

Hi all, I am looking for examples of the extensions.conf that puts all incoming calls into a context where extensions can be dials, and all phones in a context where extensions and outside calls can be dialed. i.e. I have seen: [incoming] include => sip-extensions [sip-extensions] include => longdistance [longdistance] .... Doesn't this allow any internal callers to make external

Hi ! On Cisco 7960 (with or without 7914 add-on module) when I press speakerphone button (or select line with line button - which automatically put second line on speakerphone) after about 15-20 seconds of dialtone Asterisk stable dies (seg fault). Tested versions of Asterisk are 1.0.2, 1.0.3 or 1.0.5, chan_sccp is newest form CVS of chann-sccp.sourceforge.net ). Firmware of 7960 is

This is almost certainly not an Asterisk-specific posting, but due to my inability to find a VoIP-focused Cisco list, I'll post here in the hopes of finding a more diverse user community. I am using a Cisco 7960 (version 6.0 SIP firmware) with Asterisk, and have been experiencing situations where the phone locks up. "Locks up" means that the bottom part of the screen

Hello all, I recently purchased a Cisco 7940 IP phone to do some testing with (to validate a migration to asterisk for our internal PBX needs). I understand that I need to update the phone for it to support SIP, so I configured the phone with an IP address and pointed it at my tftp server. When I reboot the phone I am currently getting "TFTP File Not Found SEPDefault.cnf" in the

This may be OT, but I can't seem to find how to do this. I have 7940/7960's with Skinny on them. When you start pressing numbers on the dialpad, you start building a number to dial. When I install SIP, that functionality goes away. You have to hit the speaker button, or lift the handset before you can start dialing. Is there a setting I am missing, or is this just a product of

Interesting notes on the 79xx series. The 7920 is the wireless phone; not mentioned here. For a more complete guide to Cisco's phones, see: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/products_data_sheets_list.html The 7902 is the "very inexpensive" Cisco phone, and it looks like it will be SCCP (Skinny) only. Twiddling my thumbs here waiting for the chan_sccp to

Anybody know the proceedure to factory reset the a 7960 phone running 6.3 SIP software? I've tried holding # when booting the phone and nothing, i can do that on my 8.2 phone but this phone i just got with 6.3 isnt working. Also **# doesnt work either.. -- ~Shaun

Hi, An Cisco 7960 ipphone has been set to SCCP firmware by one of our students. I want to set it to 7.5 SIP firmware and I've been unsuccessful yet. Firmware versions are SCCP 3.0 (Source: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_ipphon/english/ipp7960/addprot/mgcp/frmwrup.htm#wp1045789) ie: Application Load P003F300 Boot Load ID PC030300 When I browse, phone settings, I see

Hi, How well to the Cisco 7905G or Cisco 7912G phone work with Asterisk? Cisco claims both phones do SIP. I was strongly considering Polycom phones. However, it appears to be quite difficult to obtain support or firmware for Polycom phones. On the other hand, I find Cisco is very well supported. Thanks, Adi

Hi All. I have notice a problem with FM feature (screen macros) on Asterisk CVS version. When call goes via IAX and calling part "accept the call" on Dial command with option M, in macros context it's setting MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE, but anyway it hangups both channels. If anyone faced with such problem please let me know. I need to know whether it's bug or just configuration

I have been able to upgrade my Cisco 7905G phones to the SIP Image without any problems, but I just got a 7960, and I can't seem to get to the settings so I can upgrade to a SIP Image. When the phone boots up, it says Configuring VLAN, Configuring IP, TFTP ????..., then Protocol Application Invalid. I noticed on the wiki page "Firmware issues on 7940 - 7960"

I have noticed a problem with the Cisco 7940/7960 phones where if you put your voice-mail box on hold using soft keys and come back you can no longer navigate. I am curious if anyone else can duplicate this problem. Happens reliably for me with the 7940 phones. I use rfc2833 for DTMF. I would think it was a Cisco bug, but for the fact that this did not happen with older version of

Everyone, I have a lab computer I am using to test kvm. It was difficult to install with NetworkManager running. After I turned nm off I got the bridge to work and to stay in place. NetworkManager kept chaning things. I have several things I would like to learn and to tweak with KVM and virtal machines. The first small tweak is how to turn on the keypad on a keyboard. I have tried two

I have started tinkering with samba 4. I have a Windows 2008 active directory domain controller. It is also the main DNS server but is not the wins server.
