Identify Phone Issues with a URL in the Phone Web Page
When the phone doesn't work or doesn't register, a network error or any misconfiguration might be the cause.
To identify the cause, add a specific IP address or a domain name to the phone admin page. Then, try to access
so that the phone can ping the destination and display the cause.
Procedure
In a supported web browser, enter a URL that consists of your phone IP address and the destination IP that
you want to ping.
Enter a URL in the format:
http:/<Phone IP>/admin/ping?<ping destination>
where:
Phone IP = actual IP address of your phone.
/admin = path to access admin page of your phone.
ping destination = any IP address or domain name that you want to ping. Only alphanumeric characters,
‘
-
’
,
and
“
_
”
are allowed as the ping destination. Otherwise the phone shows an error on the web page. If the <ping
destination> includes spaces, only the first part of the address is used as the pinging destination. For example,
“
http://<Phone IP>/admin/ping?192.168.1.1 cisco.com
”
will actually ping 192.168.1.1.
