										 Not being an IP phone guru by any definition of the word, does anyone know whether the Cisco CP-7940 Unified IP Phone will work in conjunction with FreePBX running on a Raspberry Pi? I see the term SIP, but don't really know if the Cisco 7940 fits into that niche. Thanks in advance for any advice. Steve G./N4TTY 									 |

										Thanks Jim!  Guess I missed the 'model' number of the phone when I watched your video to get my PBX running.  Now I just need to find the 'SIP' firmware and the 'how to' to flash the phones.

										 No problem.  It should be up soon.  I'm finishing the editing as I type this reply.  When done, there will be a link posted with the firmware and configuration files as well. 
Are your phones already running SIP or are they still on the default SCCY Cisco Firmware? 									 |

										Don't have the phones yet, but thinking of buying 4 of them at what I consider a fair price.  They have the standard Cisco Firmware [the vendor reports 8.1(2.0)], if that sounds familiar.  Think they might be re-programmable using your process?  If so maybe I should go ahead and get them on the way.									 |

										 Sounds like they already have SIP loaded on them. So it'd just be a matter of configuring them by following a 10-minute video. 
If they don't, you will have to install a TFTP server on one of the nodes, set the tftpboot path to the /tmp directory, upload the firmware files to the /tmp directory, and plug that phone into the TFTP server node so it can grab the needed files. 
As for Jim or Paul...I've gotten to the point to where I go by both so all is good. 									 |
