Registration issues
- If the base is flashing red, means there are SIP registration errors. Check the SIP log on the DECT base and check the full log on UCX. If SIP registration requests are not reaching the UCX, check if firewall on the UCX is enabled. Disable the UCX firewall.
- If the SIP Extension has issues registering:
- Go to Security – IP Block List page on the UCX, check if the IP address has been blocked.
- Go to the Extension page on the UCX and check if NAT Mode is set to Yes.
- After successful registration, if the SIP Extension suddenly un-registers after a few minutes, go to the Extension page on the UCX and change the Qualify Frequency to a lower value, e.g. 40 (default is 60 seconds).
- If the extensions appears to be registered but unable to receive calls:
- Go to Network Settings page on the DECT Base Station, change Keep alive time to a lower value, should be less than the Firewall/NAT session timer.
- Go to PBX Configuration – SIP Settings page on the UCX, check if IP Configuration is set to Static IP.
Audio issues
- If using Cloud UCX, go to Network page on the DECT base, make sure Use Different SIP Ports is set to Enabled. Save and reboot.
- If on premise with UCX and DECT base in the same network, make sure Use Different SIP Ports is set to Disabled. Save and reboot.
Multi Cell
- Only the primary needs to be provisioned from the provisioning tool, the rest will auto-sync. Fill in the Primary MAC field.
- The primay base station and DECT chain will change on its own to optimize and reduce hops in the system.
- Once the system has been optimized and fully operational, delete the base station entry in the DECT Provisioning Tool on the Partner Portal.
- If handsets have call connection issues, verify that Multi-Zone is disabled for all the base stations. When disabling Multi-Zone, the base station has to be rebooted.
Coverage issues
