Chapter 9 Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Resolving Startup Problems

If you are using DHCP, check the IP addresses distributed by your DHCP server. Refer to the Understanding and Troubleshooting DHCP in Catalyst Switch or Enterprise Networks document, available at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_tech_note09186a00800f0804.shtml

Verifying DNS Settings

If you are using DNS to refer to the TFTP server or to Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you must ensure that you have specified a DNS server. Verify this setting by pressing the Applications button, then selecting Administrator Settings > Network Configuration > IPv4 > DNS Server 1. You should also verify that there is a CNAME entry in the DNS server for the TFTP server and for the Cisco Unified Communications Manager system.

You must also ensure that DNS is configured to do reverse look-ups.

Cisco CallManager and TFTP Services Are Not Running

If the Cisco CallManager or TFTP services are not running, phones may not be able to start up properly. However, in such a situation, it is likely that you are experiencing a system-wide failure, and other phones and devices are unable to start up properly.

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.

To start a service, follow these steps:

Procedure

Step 1 From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose Cisco Unified Serviceability from the Navigation drop-down list and click Go.

Step 2 Choose Tools > Control Center - Feature Services.

Step 3 Choose the primary Cisco Unified Communications Manager server from the Server drop-down list.

The window displays the service names for the server that you chose, the status of the services, and a service control panel to start or stop a service.

Step 4 If a service has stopped, click its radio button and then click the Start button. The Service Status symbol changes from a square to an arrow.

Note A service must be activated before it can be started or stopped. To activate a service, choose Tools > Service Activation.

Creating a New Configuration File

If you continue to have problems with a particular phone that other suggestions in this chapter do not resolve, the configuration file may be corrupted.

To create a new configuration file, follow these steps:
