New and Changed Information
New and Changed Information
New Software Features in Release 3.1
Authentication Name Length
The length of the authentication name field has been changed from 31 characters to 50 characters.
The display does not allow you to edit a 50-character string. The long authentication name must be
maintained on the TFTP server configuration file only. Attempting to edit the authentication name from
the display panel truncates the string at 31 characters. The phone must be rebooted to recover the original
value.
Note
Semi-Attended Transfer Capability
The ability to disable semi-attended transfer using the semi_attended_transfer configuration parameter
has been added.
Telnet Capability
The ability to disable Telnet using the telnet_level configuration parameter has been added to provide
greater security.
Installation Notes
For both Cisco SIP IP phones and Cisco MGCP IP phones, follow the instructions in the “Upgrading the
Cisco SIP IP Phone Firmware” section at the following URL:
h ttp://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_ipphon/sip7960/sipadm30/maintain.htm
For these instructions, use P0S3-03-1-00 as the image name for version 3.1.

Caveats
CSCdu68091 : No support for configurable action tag in REGISTER Contact.
Applies to: SIP.
Problem Description : When the phone sends a REGISTER message it does not attach an
action= tag to the Contact header. This can lead to mismatched registrations when another client
registers with the same user ID because the 7960/7940 is always treated as action=none.
Recommended Action : Configure the other client to have action=none to avoid mismatched
registrations.
CSCdv90788 : MWI/Ringer lamp lights briefly when answering call waiting call.
Applies to: SIP and MGCP.
Problem Description : When more than one call is active or on hold and a new call comes in on a
different line, the message waiting indicator (MWI) lamp lights briefly after answering the call.
Recommended Action : None.
CSCdw40309 : Multiple hookflashes cause speaker pops.
Applies to: SIP and MGCP.
Problem Description : Multiple instances of onhook and offhook with the handset causes the
speaker to pop or sometimes be enabled.
Recommended Action : None.
CSCdu02920 —Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache does not update correctly.
Applies to: SIP and MGCP.
Problem Description : During a phone call, the control server is failed over to the backup. The new
Active control server sends a RQNT message to the Cisco IP phone, but the Cisco IP phone still has
the MAC address of the old control server so it replies to the old control server.
Recommended Action : None.
Resolved Caveats - Release 3.1
CSCdw59439 —Contact header should not be used prior to 200 Rec.
CSCdw80802 —When the phone sends an invite (or any message with Session Description Protocol
[SDP]) there should be one attribute line for the codec specified in the m: line.

The following rows are added to Table 3-3 in the Cisco SIP IP Phone 7940/7960 Administrator Guide,
Version 3.0 , and Table 4-2 in the Cisco MGCP IP Phone Reference Guide :
Required or
Optional
Parameter
Description
semi_attended_transfer
Optional
Specifies if a semi-attended transfer is allowed. In a
semi-attended transfer, Phone A calls Phone B. Phone B
answers, and decides to transfer the call to Phone C. If
Phone B completes the transfer while phone C is still
ringing, it is called a semi-attended transfer.
Some proxies do not handle this transaction properly; if
necessary, you can disable this parameter.
Set to 1 to enable (default) and 0 to disable.
telnet_level
Optional
Enables or disables telnet access to the IP phone.
Valid values are:
0—disabled (the default value)
1—enabled
2—privileged. The difference between enabled and
privileged is that the following CLI commands are
only available in the privileged mode:
test
reset
show dump
show strpool
show personaldir
To see which mode the phone is using, enter the tty
command.
Note
The phone must be rebooted after changing this
parameter in order for it to take effect.
