Upgrade options
Once the Voice Gateway Media Card loadware and IP Phone firmware has
been verified, there are three upgrade options:
1Upgrade the Voice Gateway Media Card software only. It may only be
necessary to upgrade the Voice Gateway Media Card software. This
option is used most frequently; however, verify if an IP Phone firmware
upgrade is also required.
2Upgrade both the Voice Gateway Media Card software and the IP Phone
firmware.
Note: Defer restarting the cards until the end of the firmware upgrade. If
the IP Phones are registered to the Signaling Server, rebooting the Voice
Gateway Media Card does not affect the telephones as long as they are
not using a gateway channel on the rebooted card. However, if the IP
Phones are registered to the Voice Gateway Media Card, resetting the
card causes the IP Phone to reboot and reregister.
3Upgrade only the IP Phone firmware.
Note: In this case, restart all the IP Phones instead of the Voice Gateway
Media Cards. To do this, select a single test IP Phone and reset the
firmware only on that test IP Phone before completing the procedure on
all IP Phones. If the upgrade works properly, use the umsUpgradeAll
command to complete the upgrade on all the IP Phones.
IP Phone firmware requirements
The IP Phone 2001, IP Phone 2002, IP Phone 2004, IP Phone 2007, and IP
Audio Conference Phone 2033 firmware can be upgraded in the field.
