The correct answer is D. Configuration > System Configuration > Provisioning > Set the External Manager Address. When a Cisco TelePresence SX endpoint uses static IP, DHCP-based TFTP discovery is unavailable, so the provisioning server must be set manually via the system configuration menu.
Question
A Unified Communications engineer wants to configure a Cisco TelePresence SX endpoint using static IP addressing to use a different TFTP server. Which path will allow the engineer to complete this configuration?

- BNetwork > TFTP > DHCP RequestTFTPServerAddress > Off
- CNetwork Services > TFTP > DHCP RequestTFTPServerAddress > Off
- DConfiguration > System Configuration > Provisioning > Set the External Manager Address

Why each option
When a Cisco TelePresence SX endpoint uses static IP, DHCP-based TFTP discovery is unavailable, so the provisioning server must be set manually via the system configuration menu.
The 'Network Services > Network 1 > DHCP RequestTFTPServerAddress' path does not exist in the SX endpoint menu hierarchy and conflates unrelated menu trees.
There is no 'Network > TFTP' sub-menu on SX endpoints; this path is fabricated and does not map to any real configuration node.
While 'Network Services' is a real section, the 'TFTP' sub-node under it is not the correct location for TFTP server address configuration, and simply toggling DHCP off leaves the server address unset.
With static IP addressing, the endpoint cannot use DHCP option 150 to auto-discover the TFTP server. Navigating to Configuration > System Configuration > Provisioning and entering the External Manager Address allows the engineer to manually point the endpoint to the correct TFTP/provisioning server, which is the only supported method when DHCP is not in use.
Concept tested: Manual TFTP server provisioning on TelePresence SX endpoints
