Rebooting a Phone
You can remotely reboot a Cisco IP phone if needed.
Use the following syntax to reboot a phone:
http://phone-ip-address/admin/reboot
Redundant Provisioning Servers
The provisioning server may be specified as an IP address or as a fully qualified
domain name (FQDN). The use of a FQDN facilitates the deployment of redundant
provisioning servers. When the provisioning server is identified through a FQDN,
the Cisco IP phone attempts to resolve the FQDN to an IP address through DNS.
Only DNS A-records are supported for provisioning; DNS SRV address resolution
is not available for provisioning. The Cisco IP phone continues to process A-
records until the first server responds. If no server associated with the A-records
responds, the Cisco IP phone logs an error to the syslog server.
