[asterisk-users] Polycom Phones start to break up after beingup a LONG time

[Danny Nicholas]

This is just a hack, but why don't you schedule a "sip notify
polycom-restart" during "lunch hour"?  You could run it from a cron job
using this line for each phone:

Asterisk -rx "sip notify polycom-check-cfg 100" replacing 100 with the
number of the phone (extension).

That's interesting - I haven't noticed this with any of my installs. What
version of firmware and SIP?

Has anyone else encountered this? I have a fairly large installation (~50
phones, almost all Polycom 501's and a handful of 601's. We're running into
a number of phones on which the outbound voice (Polycom phone user doesn't
hear any problems, but the other end does) is breaking up occasionally --
enough to be noticeable and make you say "what?". In each case, rebooting
the phone has resolved the symptoms, but I'd like to know if there is a
known problem.

most of these phones would be up for several months now (installed this past
summer), and unless there are any power outages, would not be restarted
specifically.

I'm planning on restarting all the phones over the weekend, but as this is a
24-hour operation, we'd like to avoid interrupting phones at all.
