Typically, a phone resets if it has problems in connecting to the network or to Cisco Unified Communications
Manager.
Phone Resets Due to Intermittent Network Outages
Problem
Your network may be experiencing intermittent outages.
Solution
Intermittent network outages affect data and voice traffic differently. Your network might be experiencing
intermittent outages without detection. If so, data traffic can resend lost packets and verify that packets are
received and transmitted. However, voice traffic cannot recapture lost packets. Rather than retransmitting a
lost network connection, the phone resets and attempts to reconnect to the network. Contact the system
administrator for information on known problems in the voice network.
Phone Resets Due to DHCP Setting Errors
Problem
The DHCP settings may be incorrect.
Solution
Verify that you have properly configured the phone to use DHCP. Verify that the DHCP server is set up
properly. Verify the DHCP lease duration. We recommend that you set the lease duration to 8 days.
