Updating IP Phones firmware
The latest IP Phone firmware files are found on the Nortel Web site. When
the firmware is uploaded to the TFTP Server, the files must be unzipped.
The zip file contains the .bin file. It can also contain other supporting notes
and configuration files.
The latest IP Phone firmware files and configuration files are found on
the Nortel Web site. To obtain firmware files and configuration files, go
to w
ww.nortel.com/downloadingcontent. You must unzip the files before
you upload the files to the TFTP Server. The configuration zip file contains
configuration files (.cfg) for each IP Phone type and a README text
file (.txt), which contains instructions to set up the TFTP Server and to
modify the configuration file correctly so that the IP Phone downloads the
firmware.
For future firmware upgrades, update the firmware file which is stored
on the TFTP Server. Each time the IP Phone is powered on, it checks
with the TFTP Server to ensure it has the proper firmware version, and it
downloads the new software, if necessary.
