Upgrading Cisco Phone Firmware without upgrading CME

Needed to reflash a 7961 from SIP Firmware (8.4.2) to SCCP (I snagged 8.5.3.  I know 9.x is out, but one thing at a time…).

This took way longer than I thought… I’d forgotten than since I have nicely organized firmware files (eg: flash:/phone/MODEL/) that I needed to alias the tftp-server commands. So we ended up needing:

tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/SCCP41.8-5-4S.loads alias SCCP41.8-5-4S.loads
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/apps41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn alias apps41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/cnu41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn alias cnu41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/cvm41sccp.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn alias cvm41sccp.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/dsp41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn alias dsp41.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/jar41sccp.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn alias jar41sccp.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/term41.default.loads alias term41.default.loads
tftp-server flash:/phone/7941-7961/term61.default.loads alias term61.default.loads

telephony-server
load 7961 SCCP41.8-5-4S
create cnf-files
exit

And a few reboots later, happy phone on new firmware.
