Some notes and configuration snippets for deploying the Cisco 79xx series phones

Most settings are taken from Xopr's Asus WL500g running OpenWRT kamikaze RC6 with pivot-rooted USB drive and OpenVPN tunnel. (there's not enough room to host the firmware's on the flash ;)

stuff to know

tested with a lot of factory default resets because firmware and/or configs seem to cache unpredictable
not clear how to enable logging on atftpd for OpenWRT, either as --no-daemon or writing to log files
atftpd on OpenWRT sometimes seemed to crash (testing sccp), resulting in the following behaviour:
- for sip: 'Requesting Configuration' (seems to boot with cached settings)
- for sccp: 'Configuring CM List' (seems to boot with cached settings)
- for factory default: 'Phone Unprovisioned' / UNPROVISIONED
couldn't manage to factory reset the 7905 and 7910

DHCP

dnsmasq

small part in /etc/dnsmasq.conf

dhcp-option=66,LOCAL_TFTPD_IP
dhcp-option=150,LOCAL_TFTPD_IP

Note: when setting the TFT server using command line parameters, don't use extra (escaped) quotes: small part in /etc/init.d/S50dnsmasq (uncomment the args to enable the config file mentioned above

args="-K -F $START,$END,$NETMASK,${lease:-12h} --dhcp-option=66,${ipaddr} --dhcp-option=150,${ipaddr}"

TFTP

atftpd

cat /etc/init.d/S55atftpd
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/atftpd --daemon --port 69 --tftpd-timeout 300 --retry-timeout 5 --mcast-port 1758 --mcast-addr 239.239.239.0-255 --mcast-ttl 1 --maxthread 100

Cisco CP-7900 configuration

Setting up configuration files can be done by using the gencfg.sh script. It uses both SEP.cnf.xml and SIP.cnf template files to create config files that can either set up SIP or SCCP.
