Vpn Configuration Settings - Cisco 8961 Administration Manual

Chapter 7 Configuring Settings on the Cisco Unified IP Phone
(When the power is lost or reset under some circumstances, the stored credentials are cleared.)
When a phone is at the Sign In screen, the screen stays lit and does not enter a power-save mode. This
alerts the user that the phone is unregistered. If the phone remains in this state for a long time, the image
may persist in the display for a short time after the user logs back in and then the image fades.
Select the Sign In softkey to connect.
Step 2
(If you press Cancel while the phone is attempting the connection, the connection attempt stops, and the
Sign In screen appears again. Then if you press Cancel, the VPN menu appears and shows the VPN field
as Off. The phone does not attempt a connection again until you set the VPN Enabled field to On.)
