Nortel IP Phones Broadcast Storm Advisory

i2002_ip_phoneYou’re going to have to read this document for yourself. Somehow its possible for an i2002, i2004, i2007, 1120e, 1140e and 1150e to throw a loop into the network when the devices are powered by external power supplies as opposed to using a PoE (Power Over Ethernet) switch.

As a rule of thumb I enable Spanning Tree with Fast Learning on all our edge switches since the auto MDI-X feature makes it very easy for a user or inattentive network engineer to physically put a loop in the connect by connecting to edge ports with the same patch cable.

Cheers!

There are only a few phone types defined within the Succession Call Server for all Internet telephones.

The vast majority of Internet telephones are defined as either “i2002” or “i2004“. The 1150e is a special phone designed for Call Centers and is defined as an IPACD The Wireless LAN phones (2210/2211/2212) should be defined as “i2004“. Here’s a list of phones and how their associated TN should be defined;

It took me quite a few minutes to figure out how to define the 1150e the first time we purchased one a few months ago.

Reboot i2002/i2004

A question that has often been asked by those working with these devices;

“How can you reboot/reset an i2002/i2004 without unplugging it?”

Well there is good news. You can reboot them without physically disconnecting the CAT 5e/6 cable (or the power supply if your not using the PoE functionality). The bad news is the key sequence is fairly complicated. The following key sequence will also work for all of Nortel’s Internet telephones (i2002, i2004, i2007, 1120e, 1140e, 1150e).

Here’s the key sequence you’ll need to follow;

  1. Mute key,
  2. Up Navigation key,
  3. Down Navigation key,
  4. Up Navigation key,
  5. Down Navigation key,
  6. Up Navigation key,
  7. Mute,
  8. 9,
  9. Goodbye key

Here’s a graphic that might make it a little easier to understand;


Once you strike those keys the i2002/i2004 Internet Telephone will reboot itself at which time you can reconfigure the phone by striking the four soft keys just below the display while the “Nortel Networks” logo displays on the LCD.
