MRA phones tuck at registering after internet blip
We are just starting to roll out our Cisco 8800 series phones via MRA, and have run into a small problem. As is common with residential ISPs when they do a firmware update, network maintenance, etc overnight the phones get disconnected and even when the internet comes back, the phones are still at "Registering..." on the phones. If the user notices this and powers cycles the phone it comes right back, but it can cause them to miss calls if they don't notice it.

Is there any tunables to address this?

Re: MRA phones tuck at registering after internet blip [ In reply to ]
You can change the Timer Register Expires in the SIP profile to make it a bit longer, but the max you can do is 1 hour. I also changed the Timer Subscribe Delta (seconds), for 5 to 15. Both changes helped (the profile has to be applied and phone reset). But we have a number of people that routinely loose internet for 2-3 hours overnight on a weekly basis. Cisco TAC’s only suggestion is for them to switch ISPs, but since this is in a rural area, it wasn’t an option.
