Upgrading the Cisco ATA Signaling Image

This section describes two methods for upgrading the Cisco ATA software for the SCCP protocol:

•Upgrading the Signaling Image Via Cisco CallManager, page 7-2—This is the Cisco-recommended method for the SCCP protocol. This method is the most efficient method and requires no configuration-file changes.

•Upgrading the Signaling Image Manually, page 7-4—This method can be used if you want to manually upgrade the image of one Cisco ATA. However, this method is not recommended in the Cisco CallManager environment because of configuration changes that are required before and after performing the upgrade.

This section also describes procedures for verifying a successful image upgrade:

•Confirming a Successful Signaling Image Upgrade, page 7-6—Procedures for using your Web browser or the voice configuration menu are included.

Note If the Cisco ATA is loaded with a SCCP image version earlier than ata186-v2-15-ms-020911b and has registered to a Cisco CallManager, upgrading the SCCP image to ata186-v2-15-ms-02911b or later may cause the Cisco CallManager to show a "Not Registered" status. This status may appear even if the Cisco ATA has successfully completed the registration process. In this scenario, you must restart the Cisco CallManager to update the to the proper Cisco ATA registration status. (For more information, see the “Restarting the Cisco CallManager” section on page 8-4.)

Caution Do not unplug the Cisco ATA while the function button is blinking. Doing so can cause permanent damage to the device. The function button blinks during an upgrade.

Note The term Cisco ATA is used throughout this manual to refer to both the Cisco ATA 186 and the Cisco ATA 188, unless differences between the Cisco ATA 186 and Cisco ATA 188 are explicitly stated.
