Hi All,
I'm the IT guy for my company as the previous IT guy had retired but he no longer answering calls, from my previous post, we have pbx and unmanaged switch ( no one has access to this). wan port is going into the switch and lan 1 is going into our switches for the managed side of pbx

so the last few weeks phones been fine, we had a power cut and all phones have gone off and i rebooted pbx and switch. but now all phones are now waiting for dhcp.

i've checked the sys- monitor and the dhcp data,

and i checked the iproute nothing has changed. checked the Lan2 settings and everything is correct,

I've connected a phone directly into the wan port and phone settings is fine, picks up the user extension. connected to switch it is also fine. i've checked all cables to see if there a loop.

this is what im getting.
 
Can you describe the error more detailed? From the Logs it looks like if the IPO offers IPs to the clients but the client doesn't "accept" them. Maybe there is a second DHCP server in the network that also sends DHCP offers that are delivered faster to the phones so that the phones ignore the offers from IPO.
 
I just had a similar problem with Polycoms and a managed switch. Found a setting in the managed switch for Smartport that was identifying the phones and assigning a VLAN to them. Shut it off and the phones came up. The switch wasn’t really programmed to do anything, don’t know if that feature was on before.
