Hey guys,

 

New in this forum and thought i'd give this place a shot and see if I can get another pair of eyes to look into this issue that I have with some of our phones.

 

Came into work yesterday (Monday) and all of a sudden getting some phones that are no longer connecting with BToE. As far as I know, we didn't run any type of updates on the phones or the PC's. 

For example this phone is running UC: 5.6.0 , updater : 5.8.0  and BToE : 3.6 , it was all working fine up until Monday. 

 

What's strange is that if I disable the local windows firewall, BToE connects fine, as soon as I enable it, it disconnects. We haven't made any changes locally to windows firewall so this is where i'm stumped. Any help is highly appreciated!

Hello @TheNewGuyAtWork ,

 

welcome to the Polycom Community.

Both the community's Must Read First and the community's FAQ reference the basic minimum information a new or follow up post should contain.

This ensures the questions having to be asked are limited and any new or follow up post contains the right amount of details to ensure any voluntary participant within the community does not spend additional time chasing basic information.

As a reminder the basic information asked for:

 

  • Provide the exact Software Version of your Phone
  • Provide the Phone Model
  • Provide the Call Platform (aka openSIP,Skype for Business Online, Skype for Business on Premise, Lync)
  • Additional Polycom Infrastructure (RPRM,PDMS or BToE)
  • If applicable provide a backup of the phone in question

UC Software 4.0.0 or later via the Web Interface Utilities > Phone Backup & Restore > Phone Backup > Phone Backup. Please rename into .TXT or Zip the file to attach.
Since UC Software 5.9.0 simply provide this via the Web Interface Diagnostics > Download Support Information Package

  • If possible provide a Log and either attach them or use the Code Tag.Consult the Troubleshooting Section found within the FAQ if applicable
  • If possible provide the MAC Address or Serial of the device
  • Provide details for example if the issue is a day 1 issue or only happened after an upgrade or any other relevant details
  • For questions around Support please check here

 

Whilst providing some of these details may not directly impact any possible answer the community can provide, it does enable Polycom to have an overview of the current software used. In addition providing all details at the same time allow us to check logs or look up a potential support partners if an issue needs to come into support. It also enables us to verify the entitlement for using features.


Please ensure you always check the FAQ's and/or utilize the community search before posting any new topics or follow up post’s.

 

Stating all of the above you most likely already found your own answer. Someone or some change in your firewall policy is preventing the BToE process to work.

 

Jan 26, 2016 Question:Can I troubleshoot BToE or changes settings ?

Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.
