IP Phone Issue... Erased Main Load, phone bricked?
« on: March 09, 2016, 02:06:32 PM »
Hi, was having some issues with an IP phone. As per a co-worker's idea, I tried erasing the main load to reset the phone's firmware. After doing this, however, I can't seem to find any way to set the IP phone's options. Holding the volume keys just brings up something that says "Press and hold * to RESTORE DEFAULTS" and that is apparently the only thing I am able to manipulate. I can't find any way to alter IP settings for the phone now. Any help?

You can't do anything until you get the Main Load on there.

You need a DHCP server with option 125 to allow for the phone to upgrade itself.
Did you have any static settings set in the phone?

Sarond is correct, the phone must get it's options via DHCP, either Option 43, 125, or 128+, you can't load main any other way to my knowledge. Once the main is loaded you can specify settings like normal.
