sip_notify.conf

Asterisk has the ability to reboot a SIP phone remotely by sending it a specially formatted, manufacturer-specific NOTIFY message (defined in sip_notify.conf) consisting of an event. The phone receives this event, which it interprets as a reboot request. Other phones are supported, but as of this writing only phones by Polycom have been verified to work with this method.
