[Asterisk-Users] Remote rebooting a Cisco 7940

[Michael Løjtnant]

Hi,

I have seen a couple of scripts that should be able to remotely reboot the 79xx phones, but I haven't been able to make it work for my 7940.

Anyone able to guide me in the right direction?

I am running the SIP 7.1 firmware.

I am running the SIP 7.1 firmware.

Telnet to the phone's ip address, enter the password and type reset.

Get the phones ip off a 'sip show peers' on asterisk or on the phone hit
Settings->3->5 for the ip address. The default password is cisco.

Ahh, of course :-) A little fiddling around with expect and I can reboot it from a webpage now :-)

Thanks.

Best Regards
Michael
