802.1X Not Enabled
Phone cannot obtain a DHCP-assigned
IP address
These errors typically indicate that
802.1X authentication is not enabled
on the phone. To enable it, see the
“802.1X Authentication and Status”
section on page 4-51.

Manager

Factory Reset Deleted 802.1X Shared Secret
Phone cannot obtain a DHCP-assigned
IP address
These errors typically indicate that the
phone has completed a factory reset
(see the
“Performing a Factory Reset”
section on page 9-21
) while 802.1X
was enabled. A factory reset deletes
the shared secret, which is required for
802.1X authentication and network
access. To resolve this, you have two
options:
•
Temporarily disable 802.1X
authentication on the switch.
•
Temporarily move the phone to a
network environment that is not
using 802.1X authentication.
Once the phone starts up normally in
one of these conditions, you can access
the 802.1X configuration menus and
re-enter the shared secret (see the
“802.1X Authentication and Status”
section on page 4-51
).
