TFTP Configuring

You can configure many parameters on the Cisco IP Phone models 7902G/7905G/7912G using a profile file stored on the TFTP server. A profile file is a binary file that contains a list of tag, length, and value triplets (TLVs) that represent some of the configuration parameters for the Cisco IP Phone. You can edit a text version of a profile file and then convert it to a binary file for the phone to download.

TFTP configuring works as follows:

1.The Cisco IP Phone 7902G will try to download from the TFTP server the profile file ffxxxxxxxxxxxx. The Cisco IP Phone model 7905G will try to download from the TFTP server the profile file ldxxxxxxxxxxxx. The Cisco IP Phone model 7912G will try to download from the TFTP server the profile file gkxxxxxxxxxxxx. In these file names, each xx is the two-digit lowercase hexadecimal representation of each integer in the phone’s MAC address.

2.If the ffxxxxxxxxxxxx, ldxxxxxxxxxxxx, or gkxxxxxxxxxxxx profile file does not exist, the Cisco IP Phone 7902G will try to download the profile file ffdefault.cfg, the Cisco IP Phone 7905G will try to download profile file lddefault.cfg, and the Cisco IP Phone 7912G will try to download profile file gkdefault.cfg

The ffxxxxxxxxxxxx, ldxxxxxxxxxxxx, or gkxxxxxxxxxxxx profile file can be used to configure a particular Cisco IP Phone. The ffdefault.cfg, lddefault.cfg, or gkdefault.cfg profile file can be used to simultaneously configure multiple phones of the same model with the same information.
