Device Configuration Menu
The Device Configuration menu provides access to eight submenus from which you can view a variety of settings that are specified in the configuration file for a phone. The phone downloads the configuration file from the TFTP server.
For instructions about how to access the Device Configuration menu and its sub-menus, see Display Settings Menu.
Unified CM Configuration Menu
The Unified CM Configuration menu contains the options Unified CM1, Unified CM2, Unified CM3, Unified CM4, and Unified CM5. These options show the Cisco Unified Communications Manager servers that are available to process from the phone, in prioritized order. To change these options, use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, Cisco Unified CM Group Configuration.
For an available Cisco Unified Communications Manager server, an option on the Unified CM Configuration menu will show the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server IP address or name and one of the states shown in the following table.

Used to optimize installation time for phone firmware upgrades and offload 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 TFTP Server 1 or 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 TFTP Server 1 or 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. |

The Peer Firmware Sharing feature provides these advantages in high speed campus LAN settings:
Peer Firmware Sharing may also aid in firmware upgrades in branch/remote office deployment scenarios over bandwidth-limited WAN links.
When enabled, it allows the phone to discover similar phones on the subnet that are requesting the files that make up the firmware image, and to automatically assemble transfer hierarchies on a per-file basis. The individual files making up the firmware image are retrieved from the TFTP server by only the root phone in the hierarchy, and are then rapidly transferred down the transfer hierarchy to the other phones on the subnet using TCP connections.
This menu option indicates whether the phone supports peer firmware sharing.
Settings include:

From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose Device > Phone > Phone Configuration. |
|
Note The remote logging setting does not affect the sharing log messages sent to the phone log.
