HTTP Status Code Handling on Resync and Upgrade
As part of both GET and POST requests, the phone automatically includes basic identifying information in
the User-Agent field of the request header. This information conveys the manufacturer, product name, current
firmware version, and product serial number of the device.
The following example is the User-Agent request field from a CP-8841-3PCC:
User-Agent: Cisco-CP-8841-3PCC/11.0 (00562b043615)
User Agent is configurable, and the phone uses this the value if it has not be configured (still at default).
When the phone is configured to resync to a configuration profile by using HTTP, it is recommended that
HTTPS be used or the profile be encrypted to protect confidential information. Encrypted profiles that the
phone downloads by using HTTP avoid the danger of exposing confidential information that is contained in
the configuration profile. This resync mode produces a lower computational load on the provisioning server
when compared to using HTTPS.
The phone can decrypt profiles encrypted with one of these encryption methods:
• AES-256-CBC encryption
• RFC-8188 based encryption with AES-128-GCM ciphering
Note
The phones support HTTP Version 1.0, HTTP Version 1.1, and Chunk Encoding when HTTP Version 1.1 is
the negotiated transport protocol.
HTTP Status Code Handling on Resync and Upgrade
The phone supports HTTP response for remote provisioning (Resync). Current phone behavior is categorized
in three ways:
• A—Success, where the "Resync Periodic" and "Resync Random Delay" values determine subsequent
• B—Failure when File Not Found or corrupt profile. The "Resync Error Retry Delay" value determines
• C—Other failure when a bad URL or IP address causes a connection error. The "Resync Error Retry
