Chapter 1 Overview of the Cisco IP Conference Station 7935 Understanding the Requirements for Installing and Setting Up the Cisco IP Conference Station 7935 Accessing TFTP Server In addition to assigning an IP address, the DHCP server also directs the IP Conference Station to a TFTP Server. You must configure option 150 on the DHCP server for the TFTP information to be passed from the server to the client. If the IP Conference Station has a statically-defined IP address, you must configure the alternate TFTP server locally on the IP Conference Station, and the IP Conference Station then goes to that alternate TFTP server directly. Requesting the Configuration File The TFTP server has configuration files (.cnf file format) for telephony devices, which define parameters for connecting to Cisco CallManager. If you have enabled auto-registration in Cisco CallManager, the IP Conference Stations access a default configuration file (SEPdefault.cnf.xml) from the TFTP server. If you have manually entered the IP Conference Stations into the Cisco CallManager database, the station accesses an .xml file corresponding to its device name. Contacting Cisco CallManager The configuration file defines how the IP Conference Station communicates with Cisco CallManager. After obtaining the file from the TFTP server, the station next attempts to make a TCP connection to the highest priority Cisco CallManager on the list. Understanding the Requirements for Installing and Setting Up the Cisco IP Conference Station 7935 To install and configure the IP Conference Station, you must configure some network setings, set up Cisco CallManager, and make changes locally on the IP Conference Station.

Accessing TFTP Server
In addition to assigning an IP address, the DHCP server also directs the
IP Conference Station to a TFTP Server. You must configure option 150 on the
DHCP server for the TFTP information to be passed from the server to the client.
If the IP Conference Station has a statically-defined IP address, you must
configure the alternate TFTP server locally on the IP Conference Station, and the
IP Conference Station then goes to that alternate TFTP server directly.
Requesting the Configuration File
The TFTP server has configuration files (.cnf file format) for telephony devices,
which define parameters for connecting to Cisco CallManager.
If you have enabled auto-registration in Cisco CallManager, the
IP Conference Stations access a default configuration file (SEPdefault.cnf.xml)
from the TFTP server. If you have manually entered the IP Conference Stations
into the Cisco CallManager database, the station accesses an .xml file
corresponding to its device name.
Contacting Cisco CallManager
The configuration file defines how the IP Conference Station communicates with
Cisco
CallManager. After obtaining the file from the TFTP server, the station next
attempts to make a TCP connection to the highest priority Cisco CallManager on
the list.
Understanding the Requirements for Installing and
Setting Up the Cisco IP Conference Station 7935
To install and configure the IP Conference Station, you must configure some
network setings, set up Cisco CallManager, and make changes locally on the
IP Conference Station.
Refer to the following table for information on these procedures.
