I know this topic has been covered many many times and I read hours worth of documents without much success. I have a brand new 7960 phone that currently runs this firmware version: P0030301MFGx (image shipped from manufacturing) This is very very old. I am trying to upgrade to the latest 8.2 Firmware and I have the following files from Cisco in /tftpboot : OS79XX.TXT P003-08-2-00.bin P003-08-2-00.sbn P0S3-08-2-00.loads P0S3-08-2-00.sb2 OS79XX.txt contains: P003-08-2-00 According to many documents I should be creating a SIPDefault.cnf file to put the image\_version and so on. My understanding is that this is wrong, since SIPDefault is used only by phones that run SIP firmware already. SCCP phones look for SEPDefault instead. I created a SEPDefault.cnf that contains: ; sip default configuration file #Image Version image\_version:P003-08-2-00 ; #Proxy server address proxy1\_address: 192.168.0.99 ; proxy\_register: 1; Beyond this point, things get fuzzy for me. I noticed the phone was trying to download a SEP.cnf.xml file and according to some docs, I created a file called: SEP000AB8F37FF5.cnf.xml In that file the only line I have is: P003-08-2-00 After all this, I erased the phone config and unplugged it. When plugging it back in, TFTP server logs show this: Oct 18 06:15:47 home tftpd[88204]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//OS79XX.TXT](https://OS79XX.TXT): success Oct 18 06:15:48 home tftpd[88211]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//SEP000AB8F37FF5.cnf.xml](https://SEP000AB8F37FF5.cnf.xml): success That’s it. Those two lines repeat themselves over and over at intervals of 45 seconds. What am I doing wrong ? ---

update. I was missing the XMLDefault.cnf.xml. I created that with the following data: 2000 2427 2428 CP7902080001SCCP051117A CP7905080001SCCP051117A P00405000700 SCCP11.8-0-1-0S CP7912080001SCCP051117A cmterm\_7920.4.0-02-01 P00503011200 cmterm\_7936.3-3-9-0 P00308000100 SCCP41.8-0-1-0S SCCP41.8-0-1-0S P003-08-2-00 SCCP41.8-0-1-0S SCCP41.8-0-1-0S SCCP70.8-0-1-0S SCCP70.8-0-1-0S cmterm\_7985.4-0-2-0 ATA030203SCCP051201A following this, I started to get further: Oct 18 06:44:46 homepr tftpd[98263]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//OS79XX.TXT](https://OS79XX.TXT): success Oct 18 06:44:46 homepr tftpd[98265]: 192.168.0.95: read request for SEP000AB8F37FF5.cnf.xml: File not found Oct 18 06:44:46 homepr tftpd[98267]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//XMLDefault.cnf.xml](https://XMLDefault.cnf.xml): success Oct 18 06:44:50 homepr tftpd[98273]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//P003-08-2-00.bin](https://P003-08-2-00.bin): success Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98314]: 192.168.0.95: read request for CTLSEP000AB8F37FF5.tlv: File not found Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98316]: 192.168.0.95: read request for SEP000AB8F37FF5.cnf.xml: File not found Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98318]: 192.168.0.95: read request for SIP000AB8F37FF5.cnf: File not found Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98320]: 192.168.0.95: read request for MGC000AB8F37FF5.cnf: File not found Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98322]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//XMLDefault.cnf.xml](https://XMLDefault.cnf.xml): success Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98324]: 192.168.0.95: read request for P003-08-2-00.loads: File not found Oct 18 06:45:22 homepr tftpd[98326]: 192.168.0.95: read request for [//P003-08-2-00.sbn](https://P003-08-2-00.sbn): success This is where I am at. Now. Those last two lines keep on repeating each other. It wants the file P003-08-2-00.loads but I have P0S3-08-2-00.loads Searched with Google for P003-08-2-00.loads and only two matches came up stating that file name was an error…
