/mcpCreate Phone Background Images Refer to your phone documentation for background image specifications and thumbnail image specifications. This includes the image sizes (in pixels), file type, and the appropriate destination TFTP directory for that phone model (the TFTP directory is based on the image specifications). • If you want phone users to have the option to use, or not use, the image that you upload, you must prepare both a full-size image and a thumbnail image according to the specifications for that particular phone model. • If you want to assign the image to specific phones, you need the full-size image only. What to do next If you want phone users to be able to choose their own background image, Edit the List.xml file, on page 612. If you want to assign a specific background image, you don't need to update the List.xml file. Proceed to Upload Backgrounds to TFTP Server, on page 613 Edit the List.xml file If you want phone users to be able to choose their background images, use this procedure to add any new background images that you upload to the existing List.xml file. Each TFTP image directory contains a List.xml file that gets used by the phones that use that TFTP directory. This file points to the specific background and thumbnail image for each background option and can include up to 50 background images. The images are listed using the order in which they appear on the phone. For each image, the file contains an <ImageItem> element that includes these two attributes: • Image: Uniform resource identifier (URI) that specifies where the phone obtains the thumbnail image that will appear on the Background Images menu of a phone. • URL: URI that specifies where the phone obtains the full size image. Example: The following example (for a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7971G-GE and 7970G) shows a List.xml file that defines two images. The required Image and URL attributes must be included for each image. The TFTP URI that displays in the example is the only supported method for linking to full size and thumbnail images as HTTP URL support is not provided. <CiscoIPPhoneImageList> <ImageItem Image=”TFTP:Desktops/320x212x12/TN-Fountain.png” URL=”TFTP:Desktops/320x212x12/Fountain.png”/> <ImageItem Image=”TFTP:Desktops/320x212x12/TN-FullMoon.png” URL=”TFTP:Desktops/320x212x12/FullMoon.png”/> </CiscoIPPhoneImageList Procedure Step 1 Log in to the Command Line Interface Step 2 Run the file get tftp <filename> CLI command where <filename> represents the file and filepath of the List.xml file for the appropriate TFTP directory.
