I've been trying to install a 2050 phone for a customer for about a week now. This is a BCM 450 6.0 system. It seems the procedure has changed installing these phones. I have been trying to use the node locked method. After I generating the key code and following the steps to install I think I must of missed something because the phone will not register And shows a licensing failure.

When I registered the site on the avaya site for 2050s I added the Mac of the phone but not the Mac of the phone system. I then generated the key code. Could this be my problem? Any help would be appreciated.
 
pjazz - does the customer have a lic. server ?
I have not had the pleasure doing this myself with the new procedure.

I would think you would need a IP user lic on the BCM
and a lic. within the lic server also. ( 2- licences)

- I2050 rls 3 or 4 you need a lic server.

It's only dialtone!!!
 
There is no license server. Thats why I was trying to use the node locked method. The system does have Ip client licenses avialable but with the new system it seems the 2050 key code have to be uploaded under the resources heading then Ip sets.
 
With "node lock", the 2050 licence is tied to the MAC address of the PC which is running the 2050 and no licence server is used. Once that licence is generated in KRS, it needs to be loaded into the PC via TFTP/HTTP.
 
Today I was working on a new 450 6.0 and was able to connect with a 2050 softphone. The system is licensed for 50 IP clients, the softphone I have been using on other systems and demos in our office for the last few years and I'm not sure which version it is. It booted up just like normal, the OOTB 450 needed to have the DN range for IP sets defined in Telephony resources and I was good to go. In the IP terminal setup, I told the system to auto assign DNs and gave a simple password for testing. Worked like a charm.
 
I worked with the node-locked thru TFTP with no joy. Ended up running the 2050 configuration tool from a command line and indicating the license file I had copied to the root of the C drive on the softphone computer.
 
I found out in my situation that ver 4.0 is not supported on Win 7 64 bit machines per avaya. Customer does not want to down grade. Working with avaya on this was brutal. There's alot of steps and I'd like to kill the person who designed the process.

with windows 7 you could try running the I2050 in XP mode.
It might be worth a shot.
