Troubleshooting and maintenance
TFTP server settings
Problem
The TFTP server settings may not be correct.
Solution
Check the TFTP settings. See
IP addressing and routing
Problem
The IP addressing and routing fields may not be configured correctly.
Solution
You should verify the Internet Protocol (IP) addressing and routing settings on the conference phone. If you
are using DHCP, the DHCP server should provide these values. If you have assigned a static IP address to
the conference phone, you must enter these values manually. See
DNS settings
Problem
The DNS settings may be incorrect.
Solution
If you are using DNS to see the TFTP server or to Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you must ensure
that you have specified a Domain Name System (DNS) server. See
Cisco Unified Communications Manager and TFTP servers are not running
If the Cisco Unified Communications Manager or TFTP services are not running, conference phones may not
be able to start up properly. However, in such a situation, it is likely that you are experiencing a system-wide
failure and that other conference phones and devices are unable to start up properly.
If the Cisco Unified Communications Manager service is not running, all devices on the network that rely on
it to make conference phone calls will be affected. If the TFTP service is not running, many devices will not
be able to start up successfully For more information, see
Configuration file corruption
Problem
If you continue to have problems with a particular conference phone that other suggestions in this chapter do
not resolve, the configuration file may be corrupted.
