Telephones – Avaya mobile client

by

We are currently seeing some strange behaviors out of the Avaya Mobile Client on mobile phones and on some computers. We have Avaya support looking at the issue. The behaviors consist of incomplete calls or error messages on the client. If you receive any message on the client to log out, update, or a red triangle ignore unless Telecom posts a message or contacts you to do otherwise.

Outbound Phone Call Issue – Tuesday, October 25, 2022

by

We are currently experiencing issues with outbound phone calls. The issue appears to be random, and the calls end up getting dead air instead of completing. In most cases upon a second try the call completes. ATT is actively investigating the problem. We will be performing a system reboot tonight after 9pm in an attempt to fix the issue. The reboot will take down all in and outbound calling for about 10 minutes. All on campus calling should not be affected. We will continue to monitor the issue as the day progresses.

10/28/2022 – We have put in a temporary fix and all calls should complete as normal. We continue to work with the vendors to make a more final fix for the issue.
