Report a Phone Problem Remotely
You can initiate a phone problem report remotely. The phone generates a problem report using the Cisco
Problem Report Tool (PRT), with the problem description “Remote PRT Trigger”. If you have configured an
upload rule for problem reports, the phone uploads the problem report according to the upload rule.
You can see the status of the problem report generation and upload on the phone administration web page.
When a problem report is successfully generated, you can download the problem report from the phone
administration web page.
