So i went into the phone and administration settings Ethernet settings and then i went into IPV4 settings and seen a setting for TFTP so i put the TFTP address of my pc where the TFTP32 program is at. In that case try this:Ģ Press the # key and plug the phone back inģ When you see the MUTE light turn on (RED), key in the sequence 123456789*0#Īnd that was all. These phones have a number of reset options under the admin settings (Administrator Settings > Reset Settings > All Settings), however if your phone isn’t working, or there is an admin password, you won’t be able to access those. Then it told me for my phone i need to do. You can see from the 8 screenshot below that it was requesting the “” file, and not finding it.ĩ Now, unzip the firmware files you downloaded, put them in the tftp server’s root directory, and restart the tftp serverġ0 Power cycle the phone, and you should see it come back and request (and find) several different firmware filesġ1 Once it’s up and running, you should be able to put it on your production network and have it successfully upgrade to your production firmware version. You will want the “Firmware files only” option.ģ Using a spare network switch, configure it for DHCP.Ĥ Plug your computer into the switch, and allow it to obtain an IP address.ĥ Configure the DHCP option 150 on the network switch to point to your PC’s IP address.Ĩ When looking in the log files of the tftp server, you should see the phone requesting files. In my case I needed some older firware for the 7970, so I grabbed file cmterm-7970_. I personally like tftpd32Ģ Download some firmware for the phone from. I did a lot of google searches, Read a lot of webpages into i came across a website which i lost the link to and now i can’t find it told me the steps on how to set it up i saved the steps in notepadġ Download a tftp server program to your computer. Sense I’m still a little new to freepbx only started a month ago i have no clue how to program this phone.

But i found out unlike my other Cisco device which is a Cisco spa adapter that has a web interface this one doesn’t. It powered up and no problems i try to go through the menu to set it up with my freepbx server.

Hello i bought a Cisco 9971 from ebay and was really good price.
