Cisco IP Phone Does Not Register with Cisco Unified Communications Manager

If the phone proceeds past the first stage of the startup process (LED buttons flashing on and off) but continues
to cycle through the messages that displays on the phone screen, the phone is not starting up properly. The
phone cannot successfully start up unless it connects to the Ethernet network and it registers with a Cisco
Unified Communications Manager server.
In addition, problems with security may prevent the phone from starting up properly. See
Procedures, on page 180
