ghess Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I want to set up an FTP Boot server but am not getting too far. I have installed FTP on the server, placed the files there that the phone needs, tested logging in at the comand prompt, and pointed the phones to the ftp with option 66 in dhcp and in the server menu on the phone. Every time though i get the error could not contact boot server, using existing configuration. Any idea what i am doing wrong? Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Don't use FTP. Better use TFTP or (if you have PBX 2.1 or higher) HTTP. The PBX has a built-on TFTP server than can also perform software updates and on-the-fly generation of the configuration data for Polycom phones. See http://wiki.pbxnsip.com/index.php/Polycom.

Kristan Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 You'll need to change the config on the polycom to use TFTP though as it won't do it by default - it's under admin->network->server (or something like that...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
