7941G/61G Pre-Config SSH client login

Ian Cowley

These phones respond to an SSH client with a login prompt even before they have successfully downloaded a configuration.

Is there a default logon user/pwd in thsi situation?

are u using a SCCP Phone or SIP. Not sure if anyone has the login info for this one. I tried a good set of username's and non worked. Looks like it is meant for the DE's when they want to do some advanced troubleshooting. Anything specific ur trying to do by doing a ssh login ??

It was a 7941G SIP (8.0(2)) unit, until I put the wrong firmware on it! DOH!

I'm trying to find a way to recover it with access to a Call Manager, as I don't want to go and mess around on our client's CM systems.

I'm a data networker and just play with voice!

That should have read :-

...I'm trying to find a way to recover it withOUT access to a Call Manager!!

IC

try

username: default

password: user

This is the only one I know about. Also, if the Phone is registered, you can access it via web and set the username and password

try this as well to recover the ip phone

create a SIP.cnf file and have the following lines added to it

image_version:

phone_password: cisco

telnet_level: 2

Copy this file along with the Firmware files (Download the zip file from http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/ip-7900ser) and extract it to the TFTP Folder. And save the SIP.cnf file in the same folder.

You dont have to use CallManager for it, but any other TFTP Server should also work.

Have the DHCP Server give the IP Address of this host in option 150.

Unfortunately when it boots it picks up the HDCP and TFTP info OK, but then tries to download the CM related files not the SIP files

(SIP files and SIPdefault.cnf SIP[MAC].cnf)

hi,

look at this security advisory

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070221-phone.shtml

and update your ip phone firmware

Ironically I want the username and password to try and reset the phone back to SIP.

Anyone know what the username/password is?(default/user isn't it)

Or what an HTTP URL is that by-passes the logon

IC

Try "ciscocisco" or "123cisco"

hi,

you do not need username/password to reset back to sip

look here

Thanks I have all this.

The phone boots up with DHCP OK and accesses the TFTP server, but tries to download the various, app*, jar* and sm* files. It ignores the SIP files as configured in OS79XX.TXT

Its looking like a fancy doorstop!

did you try to factory reset the phone

with this -- i did it often and sometimes this helps --

Phone stays with the 'RAF'[circle with dot] symbol and reboots every few mins.

All failing (but it should not fail) you can try one last method (I take no respectabilities if that turns the phone in a dead doorstop):

Rename the sip files as the files that the telephone is trying to download. That should definitely SIPpify it.
