IPv6 Load Server Used to optimize installation time for phone firmware upgrades and
off load the WAN by storing images locally, negating the need to
traverse the WAN link for each phone's upgrade.
You can set the Load Server to another TFTP server IP address or name
(other than the IPv6 TFTP Server 1 or IPv6 TFTP Server 2) from
which the phone firmware can be retrieved for phone upgrades. When
the Load Server option is set, the phone contacts the designated server
for the firmware upgrade.
Note The Load Server option allows you to specify an alternate
TFTP server for phone upgrades only. The phone continues to
use IPv6 TFTP Server 1 or IPv6 TFTP Server 2 to obtain
configuration files. The Load Server option does not provide
management of the process and of the files, such as file
transfer, compression, or deletion.
Note When you configure both an IPv6 Load Server and a Load
Server (for IPv4), the IPv6 Load server takes precedence.
Use
Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration to
modify.
IPv6 Log Server Indicates the IP address and port of the remote logging machine to
which the phone sends log messages. These log messages help in
debugging the peer to peer image distribution feature.
Note The remote logging setting does not affect the sharing log
messages sent to the phone log.
Use
Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration to
modify.
