I think what he meant was that you can use your DHCP server to pass a TFTP boot server in a DHCP request. So if the remote router passes DHCP requests to your server, and your server returns the boot server, your phone should get it's config fine.

Unless I misunderstood what Jerry was saying.

I remember there was some talk of this on the TAUG group a while back. The BIND server has the ability to pass a certain option number and value that the phone will interpret as a TFTP boot server.

pass via dhcp

if you have control of their router, just redirect dhcp requests to
your boot server and control all from there.
