Note: A firmware download does not occur with IP Phones performing
a Virtual Office login or Media Gateway 1000B (MG 1000B) login to a
remote system. No firmware upgrade takes place during a Virtual Office
Login or MG 1000B user registration with the LTPS. The registration is
allowed because the IP Phone firmware version must be 1.33 or later to
perform a Virtual Office login or MG 1000B user registration.
The umsUpgradeAll command has no impact on Virtual Office Login
IP Phones. These IP Phones are not reset. If the Virtual Office Login is
on the same Call Server, then the IP Phone firmware is upgraded after the
user logs out. If the Virtual Office Login is between different Call
Servers, then the IP Phone just registers back to its home LTPS and
follows the normal firmware rules for regular registration.
When the umsUpgradeAll command is executed, MG 1000B user
IP Phones that are on active calls are flagged. After the IP Phones
become idle, the IP Phones are switched by the Call Server back to the
MG 1000B for the firmware upgrade.
Follow the steps in Procedure 46 to upgrade IP Phone firmware
Procedure 46
Upgrading the IP Phone firmware
1Disable the Voice Gateway Media Cards before updating the firmware.
Use the LD 32 DISI command to disable the card.
2Verify that all Voice Gateway Media Cards that require a firmware
upgrade have established a signaling link with the Call Server.
To verify the link is available between the Call Server and the card, Telnet
to each card and log into the card. From the command line, type
pbxLinkShow. The status of the Call Server link appears. If the link is
active the window displays the following:
RUDPLinkState = Up
3In the Element Manager navigator, click IT Telephony > Software >
