Polycoms need to reboot if you do much more than pick up the handset
and dial a number. A change of config of any scale certainly qualifies
here.
===That is a bit disappointing!

If you alter the sip.cfg file on your TFTP/FTP/HTTP server, the
Polycoms should pick up the fact that config file has changed and reboot
when it detects this.
===I think the phone should pick up the change on the boot server but
the fact is it doesn't unless you manually reboot it.

Unfortunately the Polycom's propensity to reboot at the drop of the hat
is one the things I really dislike about the phone - especially when
coupled with the fact that they take so /long/ to reboot.

I must admit, I'm surprised that they don't handle the config file
changing for them on the server better - I had thought they were better
than that.

It reminds me of the "good" old days of Microsoft Win95 and NT.

Yes, I just tested it an hour ago.
