I need to upgrade one of the 7945 ip phone to have SIP firmware instead of SCCP.
Currently this phone has SCCP45.8-3-5S firmware.
But when I looked at the “Device Defaults Configuration” in UCM, we have the option for SIP Protocol. The firmware is called SIP45.8-3-5S, located under the SCCP firmware
How can I push this firmware to have SIP45.8-3-5S. It seems that the Sip firmware is already available inside UCM?
Should I change the Phone Load Name” in Phone Configuration to SIP45.8-3-5S?
We are going to use this Cisco Phone for another platform but we need to have SIP firmware in it.
Thanks,

You don't need to use SIP as the control protocol for the phones to be able to use a SIP trunk from a ITSP. You'll get more features out of CUCM with SCCP as the phone control protocol and on top off that a more stable setup.

Hi
To switch to SIP, you need to do two things:
1) Switch the configuration on CCM from SCCP to SIP (you may recall when you add phones you tell CCM they are SCCP).
2) Get the SIP firmware on the phone.
There is an automated process to do this via BAT; documented here:

Thank you for the reply.
I have the instruction below but have few questions.
Switch the configuration on CCM from SCCP to SIP -> Does it mean that i have to swith all of the phones to SIP? Can we only do it for 1 phone?
My phone is setup as auto register with SCCP firmware.
My goal is to have 7945 phone with SIP firmware. We will use this phone in another platform.
Can this bulk administration procedure do only for 1 phone? I am just worry that i will make a change on all phone instead of 1 phone,
Complete these steps in order to convert the SCCP IP Phones to SIP:
Go to Cisco CallManager Administration and choose Bulk Administration > Phones > Migrate Phones > SCCP to SIP.
Click Find after you select/enter the appropriate search criteria to list the phones that need to be migrated.
Click Next and choose the phone template from the drop-down.
Enter the job description in the Job Information area.
Click Run Immediately in order to migrate phone records immediately or click Run Later in order to migrate at a later time.
Click Submit in order to create a job for migrating the phone records.
Note: After you submit a job for migrating phones from SCCP to SIP, make sure that you reset these phones. In order to reset the phones, choose Bulk Administration > Phones > Reset/Restart Phones > Query.
When the Migrate job is submitted, choose Bulk Administration > Job Scheduler in order to schedule and/or activate this job.
If it remains in the Pending state, you might need to activate the Bulk Provisioning Service under the Serviceability > Tools > Service Activation page. Refer to Activating Bulk Provisioning Service for more information.
Go to Cisco CallManager Administration, choose System > Enterprise Parameters and change Auto Registration Phone Protocol to SIP (SCCP is the default). Then restart the Cisco CallManager service. Refer to Autoregistration with Multiple Protocol Support for more information.
Note: In order to revert back to SCCP, you need to delete the SIP phone, set Auto Registration Phone Protocol to SCCP and then let the phone re-register as SCCP.

Hi
The clue is in the steps you listed:
2. Click Find after you select/enter the appropriate search criteria to list the phones that need to be migrated.
The phones shown when you do the 'find' will be switched. You see one phone, one phone is switched to SIP.

Dears,
Hope you are doing well all,
So if I convert my IP phone 7945G from SCCP to SIP client is it will work, then after that should I'll be able to use the SIP server? and where should I change the settings on the phone it self or on the CUCM?
Please correct me if I'm wrong,
Thanks in advanced,

Why do you want to change to SIP?
You will have less features and more bugs doing it.

I need to have 7945 phone for another phone system platform. I will not use it for UCM.
I am just wondering since we have the SIP option at "Device Default" for 7945.
I only need one phone. I dont plan to migrate other phones but just worry about the bulk administration procedure if it will effect other phones.

Can you satisfy my curiosity, after 1 year and an half you haven't converted the image yet ?
11-11-2012 11:34 AM
Hi Paolo,
Many thanks for your reply,
My concern is that after I convert the image of my phone it will still CM client,
The outgoing calls will be routed through the route pattern,
So what is the main benfet of this convertsion,
My case that I don't have a voice GW in my setup so I will ask the SIP provider to provide me with SIP trunk to route it though the CM,
Because he provide me with DID numbers with user name and password,
Thanks in advanced,
Ahmed
