User interface in failover/failback
• Failover (F/O) transition - Connection to SES/SM failed, the phone detects F/O and blocks new
invites while the phone is in transition.
• Stable in F/O where the non-primary proxy is the active controller.
• Fail Back (F/B) transition to normal - The phone detects that the primary server is up,
regardless if the secondary is up. New invites are blocked while the phone is in transition. The
phone is in a stable Normal mode with SES/SM as the active controller. Any cached changes
(for example, to Contacts or other Avaya Menu options and settings) are updated to the PPM
once the phone is registered back to the primary controller.

condition regardless of whether a user is on a call or not.
• Acquiring Services - The phone has detected a lost connection to the primary controller and
displays an Acquiring Services Screen if the phone is idle.
• Call Preservation - During an active call, the phone has detected a lost connection to the
primary controller and displays a Call Preservation screen.
