How do I effect an immediate update of the ATA 186 profile from the TFTP server (prior to the CFGINTERVAL expiration)?
A. You can only ask the ATA to refresh its box profile as soon as it is convenient to do so. Access the refresh web page to perform this. For example, provided you know the IP address assigned to the ATA 186, (assume 192.168.2.170) you can open the 192.168.2.170/refresh page with a web browser in order to ask the ATA to refresh the profile from TFTP server. If the ATA is not in a call activity, it responds with an ok page. Otherwise, it responds with a later page. In either case, the ATA remembers the request made and refreshes itself as soon as it can. If you have physical access to the ATA, you can always power cycle the ATA to effect an immediate profile update from TFTP server.
