What to do if AudioCodes 450HD becomes unusable after power failure during firmware upgrade?
- RRhonda BurnettAug 23, 2025
If your AudioCodes IP Phone becomes unusable because it was powered off during a firmware upgrade, you can recover the firmware. Ensure your DHCP server supports Options 66 (TFTP server address) and 67 (firmware file) and that these options are configurable. Verify that the TFTP server is running and the firmware file for recovery is in the correct location before connecting the phone. Connect the phone to the IP network, and then to the power outlet. The phone will send a TFTP request to the IP address indicated in DHCP Option 66 to retrieve the firmware file indicated in DHCP Option 67. After the firmware upgrade completes, the phone should boot up successfully.
