The TFTP process may take as long as 1 to 2 minutes over the Internet or just 20+
seconds if it is performed on a LAN. Users are recommended to conduct TFTP
upgrade in a controlled LAN environment if possible. For those who do not have a
local TFTP server, Planet provides a NAT-friendly TFTP server on the public Internet
for firmware upgrade. Please check the Service section of Planet’s Web site to obtain
this TFTP server’s IP address.

4. Start the TFTP server on the UC IP Phone’s web configuration page.

MAC address of the phone. These two files are initially for automatically
provisioning purpose only, and for normal TFTP or HTTP firmware upgrade.
