Ok... so I want to try to make some Cisco 7960 SIP's work... Here's my question:

In the tftpboot directory there is a sipdefault file already created. Looks like it hasn't been modified since 7/6/2007. Our current network has all Polycoms, which I do not believe utilize that file for boot. Can any one let me know if anything else requires that file? Apparently Cicso's need that file to boot from so I would like to be able to swap it out with my Cisco sipdefault....

Nevermind....

Once I did the manual set up on the website and told the phone to look at my TB for the tftp server it automatically provisioned the phone.... Didn't think that it was supposed to do that by hey... I'm not complaining.

Only thing I have to work on now is the dialplan and making it so that all 6 lines do not show up with the same extension. I changed in to the SIPXXX.cnf file but when i restarted the phone it still showed all 6 lines. It did however make the other changes that I changed within the file..

You can also edit each of

You can also edit each of the phones SIPxxxxxxxx.cnf file and delete the other lines off.

That's what I meant. However, once I did that and rebooted, it still displayed all lines. I then went to manually delete them within the phone and as soon as I took line 3 off, they all dissappeared...

Any idea on how I can get the dialplan to work? It's reading my Polycom ( i think ) but has a 10 second delay. Maybe I should just create a new dial plan for ciscos and tell them to look at that dial plan? Do you have an example that I could maybe use? I'd like it to work just like the Polycom's with that if i'm dialing internally, externally, local, or long distance that it begin dialing after the last number is pressed....

For the Cisco dialplan, you

For the Cisco dialplan, you should have a dialplan.xml file in the tftpboot directory. A simple one is as follows:
To immediately match 9+10digits or 9+1+10digits, and match 5+2digits as internal extensions

  <DIALTEMPLATE> 
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="5.." TIMEOUT="0"/>
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="9,1.........." TIMEOUT="0" Tone="Bellcore-Alerting"/> 
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="9,.........." TIMEOUT="0"/> 
  </DIALTEMPLATE> 
---------------------or....................---------------------

To match "anything" with a 5 second delay after dialing (for an even more simple approach):

<DIALTEMPLATE>
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="*" TIMEOUT="5"/>
</DIALTEMPLATE>

Googling will net you a whole lot more options and results!

My internal extensions begin

My internal extensions begin with a '1' and are 4 digits so would i just change the 5+2 to 1+3?

Try this

Try this:

Keep in mind that with this dialplan, when you dial a 9, you will get a different (higher) dial tone, letting you know you are placing an external call.

  <DIALTEMPLATE> 
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="1..." TIMEOUT="0"/>
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="9,1.........." TIMEOUT="0" Tone="Bellcore-Alerting"/> 
     <TEMPLATE MATCH="9,.........." TIMEOUT="0"/> 
  </DIALTEMPLATE> 

Let me know if this works for you.

Jon

I'll try it when I get in

I'll try it when I get in the office tomorrow. I brought one of the phones home with me so I could try to get it working over the internet and I was able to do that but I can't get it to read any files from my tftp server. I went in and manually changed the server address and it connected... any thoughts as to why I can get it to read the server settings?
