Q. What is the difference between restarting and resetting a phone?A. A restart only re-registers the phone with the Cisco CallManager whereas a reset does a complete re-initialization of the phone. In the case of a reset, the phone fetches its configuration file again from the TFTP path which will not happen if you restart the phone. Using the sequence **#** also makes the phone fetch its configuration file from the TFTP path.
