No Association to Cisco Aironet Access Points
After power on, if a phone continues to cycle through messages displaying on the phone screen, the phone is
not associating with the access point properly. The phone cannot successfully start up unless it associates and
authenticates with an access point.
The wireless phone must first authenticate and associate with an access point before it can obtain an IP address.
The phone follows this start up process with the access point:
1 Scans for an access point
2 Associates with an access point
3 Authenticates using a preconfigured authentication method (using the configured security mode setting)
4 Obtains an IP address
