Any idea how to set up a cisco 7902 phone using SCCP? I can ping the phone through the network and I can view al its setting using a web browser but I can't get a dialtone.
When I view the phone's TftpServer, it is noted down as 0.0.0.0. How do i change the 7902's TFT server so i know it will at least that my 7920 phone can communicate with my asterisk pbx? Thanks.
Check out Asterisk phone cisco 79xx.
This is not an asterisk issue. In your /etc/dhcpd.conf file, add the following line:
option tftp-server-name "ip.of.tftp.server";
Make sure your TFTP server is running and all necessary ports are open on your firewall (you can check by using iptables -L )You can add this inside or outside of a subnet {}, it doesn't matter. The 7902s are pretty much plug and play if you can get them talking to the tftp server.

tftp is a trivial/simple ftp program that serves the config files to your phone. this is NOT part of asterisk and you need to install in seperatly. use "atftp" and do not run it with inetd
dhcpd.conf is the config file for another program needed to dynamicly configure your phones IP address. this is also NOT part of asterisk
333Can't find etc/dhcpd.conf
I've already configured the sccp.conf, extenssions.conf, and modules.conf and I receive no dialtone.
I mean, at what point of setup or most basic configuration can I get a dialtone from my cisco 7902? I've been messing with this phones for days and i can't get I just dial anything or ring it. Please help. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Regarding the suggestion you have made, am I suppose to know what is the --> tftp-server-name <-- of the ASTERISK PBX Server that I installed or is that entire line just added into hdcpd.conf exactly the way you have suggested?
If i have to know tftp-server-name, how do I find that out? Thanks.
ps.
the 7920 phone i said is a typo. I only have three 7902 phones that I would like to have them communicate to each other. Thanks again.
