Does the phone have a web interface for configuration?

It's a Cisco phone, it's the way it's done with them unfortunately.
I've updated the firmware overnight using a temporary SIPDefault.cnf and a SIPmac_address.cnf but they are nowhere near right and the phone won't make or receive calls.
From doing a forum search I have found a couple of posts relating to Cisco 7940 and 7960 phones but none with template config files and there's nothing relevant on the wiki.
