Troubleshooting Cisco Unified IP Phone Security
Step 2
Modify DHCP and IP settings:
a.
Disable DHCP. See the
“Network Configuration Menu” section on page 4-5
for instructions.
b.
Assign static IP values to the phone. See the
“Network Configuration Menu” section on page 4-5
for
instructions. Use the same default router setting used for other functioning Cisco Unified IP Phones.
c.
Assign a TFTP server. See the
“Network Configuration Menu” section on page 4-5
for instructions.
Use the same TFTP server used for other functioning Cisco Unified IP Phones.
Step 3
On the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server, verify that the local host files have the correct
Cisco Unified Communications Manager server name mapped to the correct IP address.
Step 4
From Cisco Unified Communications Manager, choose
System > Server
and verify that the server is
referred to by its IP address and not by its DNS name.
Step 5
From Cisco Unified Communications Manager, choose
Device > Phone > Find
and verify that you have
assigned the correct MAC address to this Cisco Unified IP Phone. For information about determining a
MAC address, see the
“Determining the MAC Address for a Cisco Unified IP Phone” section on
page 2-13
.
Step 6
Power cycle the phone.
Checking Power Connection
In most cases, a phone will restart if it powers up by using external power but loses that connection and
switches to PoE. Similarly, a phone may restart if it powers up by using PoE and then gets connected to
an external power supply.
