IP Phone Configuration and Troubleshooting Guide
NetVanta 7000 Series and ADTRAN-approved Polycom Phones
Overview
The purpose of this guide:
• Explain the default configuration.
• Explain how to configure the NetVanta 7000 Series products for a Polycom phone.
• Explain how the phone acquires the configuration from the NetVanta 7000 Series product.
• Provide guidance for troubleshooting phones that will not fully boot, register, etc.
• Explain how to restore a phone to the factory defaults.
Default Configuration
The NetVanta 7000 Series product ships with the following default configuration for phones:
• DHCP server
- Enabled
- Option 66 pointing to tftp://10.10.20.1 for a boot server for Polycom phones
NOTE - “tftp://” must prepend the IP address in the ascii string for DHCP option 66
ex: tftp-server tftp://10.10.20.1
• FTP server
- Enabled
- Pointing to CompactFlash
®
filesystem
• Polycom Phone Default Configuration (“polycomboot.cfg”)
- Phone VLAN is 2
- Boot Server contact method is FTP
- Default Boot Server is 10.10.20.1/Polycom
- FTP username and password are “polycomftp” and “password”
Contacting the Boot Server
Polycom phones initially boot and learn from DHCP Option 66 to use TFTP to contact the boot server. This is because
TFTP does not require a Username and Password. This will allow a phone to download a file called “polycomboot.cfg”
from Flash memory. This file contains the boot parameters listed above and will statically configure these values on the
phone so that when it reboots it will retain the newly learned boot parameters.
