I have an issue got a with various versions of 7.0/7.1 on several systems I have upgraded the main systems to 8.0 UR5, although hot desking was tested from 7.1.4.9_1 and 8.0 UR5 all ok locally there are issues with the 7.0/7.1 systems where an 8.0UR5 Hot Desk Profile works on some systems but not on others in the Network even though the systems in question are both running 7.1.4.9_1
Mitel states the workaround is to statically IP the TFTP svr on the phone to the version 8.0UR5 MN3300, however I have tested this by homing a handset to the 7.0/7.1 system and logging in the 8.0 UR5 Hot Desk profile which works ok.
Mitel recommends upgrading all systems at the same time to the same load which causes an unacceptable risk factor issues as this network runs into double figures in terms of numbers of MN3300's.
I have thought about replacing the Main Load for phones on the 7.0/7.1 systems with the 8.0 UR5 file but unsure of the consequences on the MN3300 itself, or just changing the DHCP TFTP IP address to point to the nearest version 8.0UR5
MN3300.
Not sure if its the revison of phones or an inter version interoperability software issue, but this raises questions of backward compatibilty with Mitel MN3300's.
I am also a disciple of the same version O/S within a cluster methodology before anyone asks, it was not possible in this as I did not have full control of the MN3300 Network.
Any suggestions or relavent experiences would be gratefully receivedas this will help restore the faith as this has been a well received Network installation but this issue around upgrades and software versions with Hot Desking has shaken confidence badly in the Mitel MN3300.
