Description
The Cisco Unified IP Phone has non-volatile
Flash memory in which it stores firmware images
and user-defined preferences. At startup, the
phone runs a bootstrap loader that loads a phone
image stored in Flash memory. Using this image,
the phone initializes its software and hardware.
If the Cisco Unified IP Phone is connected to a
Cisco Catalyst switch, the switch next informs the
phone of the voice VLAN defined on the switch.
The phone needs to know its VLAN membership
before it can proceed with the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) request for an IP
address.
If the Cisco Unified IP Phone is using DHCP to
obtain an IP address, the phone queries the DHCP
server to obtain one. If you are not using DHCP in
your network, you must assign static IP addresses
to each phone locally.
In addition to assigning an IP address, the DHCP
server directs the Cisco Unified IP Phone to a
TFTP Server. If the phone has a statically-defined
IP address, you must configure the TFTP server
locally on the phone; the phone then contacts the
TFTP server directly.
You can also assign an alternative TFTP
Note
server to use instead of the one assigned
by DHCP.
The TFTP server stores the certificate trust list
(CTL) file. This file contains a list of
Cisco Unified Communications Managers and
TFTP servers that the phone is authorized to
connect to. It also contains the certificates
necessary for establishing a secure connection
between the phone and
Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
The TFTP server has configuration files, which
define parameters for connecting to Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and other
information for the phone.
