information about the options on that menu, see the “Network Configuration Menu” section on page 4-5.

Table 4-18 Network Configuration Menu Options

Option Description To Change

Load Server Used to optimize installation time for phone firmware

upgrades and offload the WAN by storing images locally,

negating the need to traverse the WAN link for each phone's

upgrade.

You can set the Load Server to another TFTP server IP address

or name (other than the TFTP Server 1 or TFTP Server 2)

from which the phone firmware can be retrieved for phone

upgrades. When the Load Server option is set, the phone

contacts the designated server for the firmware upgrade.

Note The Load Server option allows you to specify an

alternate TFTP server for phone upgrades only. The

phone continues to use TFTP Server 1 or TFTP Server

2 to obtain configuration files. The Load Server option

does not provide management of the process and of

the files, such as file transfer, compression, or

deletion.
