I took the plunge and purchased a Cisco 7962 to see if I could get it working with our 7961s and older models.

I'm using the config file for the 7961 described on the voip-info.org wiki.

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+phone+cisco+79x1+xml+...

This has worked great with our 7961s, but it doesn't appear to work well for the 7962. I'm able to load the 7962 SIP firmware from the config file to replace the SCCP firmware from the factory, but the other options don't appear to have any affect.

I watched the logs on the TFTP server, and the phone is requesting the same files, including the SEPMACADDRESS.cnf.xml file, which it uses to at least grab the appropriate firmware.

I don't have access to a Call Manager so I'm not able to grab the config file it might generate.

Has anyone been able to get this phone to work with Trixbox/Asterisk?

Cisco 7962 - working config
Thu, 11/15/2007 - 11:18pm

Go it working with the config on the page above. I had to remove the natEnabled entry, as well as a timeFormat24hr line I had added to get the date format working correctly. Said the phone was Unprovisioned until I did that. Worked for a Cisco 7975 as well.

Try the config for the 7975:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk%20phone%20c...

Scroll down to Asterisk + SIP + Cisco 7975 and use the conf.xml file there. I'm using it with a 7962 and it works fine - just be sure to change the load information from:

SIP75.8-3-3SR2S

To something like this:

SIP42.8-3-3SR2S.load

The 7942/7962 use the same load from Cisco.

still not working
Mon, 05/05/2008 - 4:32am

there are 2 problems:
- it can't dial numbers form keypad, because it sends only first digit in INVITE message (speeddial works ok),
- it can't set preferred codec, it shows codec from xml config in menu, but always uses g711ulaw, as seen in ethereal dump.

I think, that in case I enabled g711ulaw codec in proxy I could use it, but i want g711alaw working.

any idea what could cause this problems?

not sure

Do you have a dialplan.xml file setup? If not, put the following in a file with that name and safe it to your tftp directory.


Not sure about the codec. I've only used ulaw and I've never had a problem setting it up. In sip_general_additional.conf, it appears FreePBX allow both ulaw and alaw, so as long as you have the

g711alaw

it should use alaw.

dialing is good
Mon, 05/05/2008 - 11:42pm

i've included dialplan.xml and dialing is working.
...but codec isn't :/

problem is, that i'm using corporate sip pbx so it must be g711alaw :/
i can set this codec as preferred (it appears in phone settings), but 7962 won't use it as preferred codec.

thanks for help, regards,
Leszek
