FAQ IP Phone

General

How can I turn off the phone’s screen during the day?

The whole Cisco IP phones are configured in order that the screen stay lit during the day.

However, if you wish that your IP phone switches in power saving mode during the day, you can send a request by email to the Service Desk [email protected]

My IP Phone rings only once, what should I do?

If your phone rings only once when someone calls you, you have to verify that the “Do not disturb” mode is not enabled. To disable it press the DND button.

Some phone settings are disabled on the IP phone configuration website, is this normal?

In the “Phone settings”, the options “Service”, “Sound Settings”, “Voicemail Notification Settings” and “Phone contacts” are displayed as “disabled by your administrator”. This is normal, these configuration settings are not available.
