Verifying Phone Startup

After receiving power and network connectivity, the phone executes a boot-up sequence. During this sequence, phones with screens display the Cisco logo and then “Initializing Network.” All of the lights on the phone will flash.

After your phone is successfully connected to the network and receives a basic configuration, the extension number appears on the display screen (on models with a display screen) and the phone has a dial tone.

On models with screens, the phone displays the standard menu for the phone. The date, name and number of the phone display on the top line of the LCD screen. At the bottom of the LCD screen, softkeys are displayed over their associated soft buttons.

On models with no screen, such as the Cisco SPA 301, you should hear a dial tone when picking up the handset or pressing the speakerphone button.
