asterisk users - Jun 2006 - Auto NOTIFY

Hey everyone,

I wrote in last week about our Polycom phones rebooting. I had a nice 
theory with it being the PoE switch but that was thrown out the window 
today when phones even with a power supply rebooted.

So my question now points back to Asterisk. Is there any feature on 
Asterisk that sends a NOTIFY signal to the phones that is automatically 
enabled? Or is it only manual?

Thanks,
Kevin

The following command on the Asterisk console will reboot a polycom phone:

sip notify polycom-check-cfg <ip-addr>

but.... in sip.conf, voIpProt.SIP.specialEvent.checkSync.alwaysReboot needs to
be set to 1.

otherwise... beats the heck out of me!

Ohoh... Kevin, what version of SIP software are you running?
One of my Polycom phones just rebooted itself for no apparent reason.
