It also explains how to clean and maintain your phone. For additional troubleshooting information, refer to the Using the 79xx Status Information For Troubleshooting tech note.
Page 162: Symptom: The Cisco Unified Ip Phone Does Not Go Through Its Normal Startup Process
Symptom: The Cisco Unified IP Phone Does Not Go Through its Normal Startup Process When you connect a Cisco Unified IP Phone into the network port, the phone should go through its normal startup process as described in the “Verifying the Phone Startup Process” section on page 3-13, and the LCD screen should display information.
Page 163: C H A P T E R 9 Troubleshooting And Maintenance
Checking Network Connectivity If the network is down between the phone and the TFTP server or Cisco Unified Communications Manager, the phone cannot start up properly. Ensure that the network is currently running. Verifying TFTP Server Settings You can determine the IP address of the TFTP server used by the phone by pressing the Settings button on the phone, choosing Network Configuration, and scrolling to the TFTP Server 1 option.
Page 164: Verifying Dns Settings
If the Cisco CallManager service is not running, all devices on the network that rely on it to make phone calls will be affected. If the TFTP service is not running, many devices will not be able to start up successfully.

Page 166: Symptom: Cisco Unified Ip Phone Unable To Obtain Ip Address
Verifying the Physical Connection Verify that the Ethernet connection to which the Cisco Unified IP Phone is connected is up. For example, check whether the particular port or switch to which the phone is connected is down and that the switch is not rebooting.
Page 167: Verifying Dhcp Settings
Verifying Voice VLAN Configuration If the Cisco Unified IP Phone appears to reset during heavy network usage (for example, following extensive web surfing on a computer connected to same switch as phone), it is likely that you do not have a voice VLAN configured.
Page 168: Checking Power Connection
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.
