In addition, problems with security may prevent the phone from starting up
properly. See the
“Troubleshooting Cisco Unified IP Phone Security” section on
page 9-12 for more information.
Identifying Error Messages
As the phone cycles through the startup process, you can access status messages
that might provide you with information about the cause of a problem. See the
“Status Messages Screen” section on page 7-4 for instructions about accessing
status messages and for a list of potential errors, their explanations, and their
solutions.
Checking Network Connectivity
If the network is down between the phone and the TFTP server or
Cisco
Unified Communications Manager, the phone cannot start up properly.
Ensure that the network is currently running.
Verifying TFTP Server Settings
You can determine the IP address of the TFTP server used by the phone by
pressing the Settings button on the phone, choosing Network Configuration, and
scrolling to the TFTP Server 1 option.
If you have assigned a static IP address to the phone, you must manually enter a
setting for the TFTP Server 1 option. See the
“Network Configuration Menu”
section on page 4-7.
If you are using DHCP, the phone obtains the address for the TFTP server from
the DHCP server. Check the IP address configured in Option 150.
You can also enable the phone to use an alternate TFTP server. Such a setting is
particularly useful if the phone was recently moved from a from one location to
another. See the
“Network Configuration Menu” section on page 4-7 for
instructions.
