Cause
These errors typically indicate that the phone has completed a factory reset while 802.1X was enabled. A
factory reset deletes the shared secret, which is required for 802.1X authentication and network access.
Solution
To resolve this situation, temporarily move the phone to a network environment that is not using 802.1X
authentication. After the phone starts up normally, access the 802.1X configuration menus to enable device
authentication and to reenter the shared secret. See 802.1X Authentication section for details.
