Hello all, I'm in the process of deploying the Asterisk VoIP PBX where I work. I have evaluated a few phones, and eventually decided on the Cisco 7940G and Cisco 7912G. Because there are many people that sit relatively closely, I feel it is important that the phones have several different ring tones to choose from so employees can assign a unique ringtone to their phone. On the Cisco 7940 phones I accomplished this by creating a RINGLIST.DAT with the ringtones, and placing that, along with the rings themselves, on the TFTP server. This same configuration does not seem to work on the Cisco 7905G I have in my posession (and presumably the 7912G's which I have not ordered yet, as they are 99% same as the 7905G). The phone never requests RINGLIST.DAT from my TFTP server and do not display the ringers I have specified. The Cisco 7905G phone I have does have a menu option for Ring Types, but only one ringer is available to choose in that menu. Because this menu option exists, I would think it is possible to add more. However, I have not found any documentation on how to add more Ring Tones. If anyone knows how to do it, I would appreciate it if they are willing to help me.
Thank you, Eric Kotz snipped-for-privacy@erickotz.com
