Service Outage - High Severity: 1224 Graham Rd Mitel VoIP Phones Not Working

Incident Report for Washington University - IT

Resolved

WashU and BJC technical teams were able to confirm additional information about the equipment at the Graham site. The Mitel phone system, supported by a third party vendor (Ring Central), is connected to a Charter Spectrum network connection procured by the clinic. Spectrum did a network upgrade and the timing lines up with when the phone system issue began, implying that the phone system did not get reconnected properly during that upgrade. The clinic staff will need to work with Spectrum and Ring Central to resolve the issue, as neither service is supported by WashU or BJC. The major incident will be canceled and the staff has been advised who to contact if they need more information from WashU.

We appreciate your patience during this incident.
