Cisco 7941 - trying to pull from wrong TFTP Server

Max Lippmann

Hey guys,

i recently bought a Cisco 7941 phone and i am now trying to upgrade the firmware to the SIP Protocol supported one. I already have a Cisco 7960 phone successfully set up, so I think my setup is working..

First of all, I downloaded a slightly older SCCP Version (SCCP41.8-0-4SR3AS) and reset the phone via 3491672850*# completely. This worked fine, the display is blank and the phone is looking for the firmware files via TFTP.

So I downloaded tfpt32, hook up the computer and phone to a switch, set the ethernet adapters ip to 192.168.1.1 / 255.255.255.0 static and ran tftp32.

I configured the DHCP exactly like this:
IP pool starting address: 192.168.1.2
Size of pool: 250
Boot File:
WINS/DNS Server: 0.0.0.0
Default router: 192.168.1.1
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Additional Option: 150 | 0x0101A8C0

The device tree of the tftp root Folder is like this:

Now, my Problem is, that the 7941 tries to catch up a TFTP Server from 0.101.8.1, instead of 192.168.1.1 as a conclusion that the tfpt Server receives no request at all and the phone can't find any firmware.

Screenshot from Wireshark:

As a conclusion: nothing is working - is there a mistake in my settings?

Thanks

Max

Hi,

You need to configure option 150 correctly.

Right now it is 0x0101A8C0.

Please specify an IP in ipv4 format.

it would then take the option 150 ip and download its configuration files from there.

Please rate and mark correct if helpful.
