Installing the Cisco IP Phone Models 7905G and 7912G

Most frequently, the configuration parameter-value pairs for each phone are contained in a configuration file known as a profile that is stored on a TFTP server on the network. When the phone powers up, it contacts the TFTP server and downloads its profile. To do so, however, the phone must first receive a basic configuration that instructs it to download its profile from the TFTP server and informs it of the server location. This basic configuration can be preprogrammed on the phone before it is shipped to the end user, or it can be performed by the end user when the phone is installed.

For more information about configuring a phone, see Chapter 3, “Configuring the Cisco IP Phone Models 7905G and 7912G for SIP.” For detailed information about profiles, see Chapter 6, “Configuring the Cisco IP Phone Models 7905G and 7912G Using a TFTP Server.”
