Failed

The phone attempted an 802.1X transaction but authentication failed.
 

Authentication typically fails for one of the following reasons: 

• No shared secret is configured in the phone or authentication server. 
  
• The shared secret configured in the phone and the authentication server do not match. 
  
• Phone has not been configured in the authentication server.
  

File auth error

An error occurred when the phone tried to validate the signature of a signed file. This message includes the name of the file that failed.

• The file is corrupted. If the file is a phone configuration file, delete the phone from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database using Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. Then add the phone back to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database using Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. 
  
  
• There is a problem with the CTL file and the key for the server from which files are obtained is bad. In this case, run the CTL client and update the CTL file, making sure that the proper TFTP servers are included in this file.
  
  

File not found

The phone cannot locate, on the TFTP server, the phone load file that is specified in the phone configuration file.

From Cisco Unified Operating System Administration, make sure that the phone load file is on the TFTP server, and that the entry in the configuration file is correct.

IP address released

The phone has been configured to release its IP address.

The phone remains idle until it is power cycled or you reset the DHCP address. See Network Configuration Menu for details.

 ITL installed

The ITL file is installed in the phone.

None. This message is informational only. The ITL file was not installed previously. For more information about the ITL file, see Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.

Load Auth Failed

The phone could not load a configuration file.

Check that: 

• A good version of the configuration file exists on the applicable server. 
  
• The phone load file being downloaded has not been altered or renamed. 
  
• The phone load type is compatible; for example, you cannot place a DEV load configuration file on a REL-signed phone.
  

Load ID incorrect
