[asterisk-users] Aastra weirds IP 169.x.x.x

[Matt Watson]

You should be safe to upgrade to the latest Aastra firmware - i've never had
problems with any of the Aastra upgrades - that being said, thats probably
better asked to Aastra support instead of here.

As for the 169.254.0.0/16 address...

theres nothing "weird" about these addresses... 169.254.0.0/16 is a block
designated as the link-local address block, operating systems can assign an
IP in this range to themselves automatically when there is either
no statically configured address or they are unable to contact a DHCP
server.  Its the same with the FE80::/10 block in IPv6.  Nearly all of the
time you see these addresses its a problem where your devices are unable to
talk to your DHCP server for some reason.

I'm actually a little surprised that you are able to have those phones
connect to your Asterisk server at all... do you have a
169.254.0.0/16address assigned on your server or a router between the
phones and Asterisk
server?
