If you connect a laptop to the same SSID, do you get an IP address?

Whats the config like? Who is the dhcp server? Just the phone not getting an ip?

Hello,
It could be that DHCP failed because the encryption between the access point and phone do not match.
For more clarity please refer to the troubleshooting guide for 7921:

we are using wcs to manage 4404 controllers . we have three 4404 at our main site and a separate controller at branch offices.
when i tried to make configs in controllers via wcs and restart them , individually via wcs we loose our PSK. and wireless network goes down.
ie from wcs --> configure -->controller--> select controller ip --> .... and make configs
i have to go to DataCenter and do a hard reboot . and use " template " utility to restore our PSK.
is this a known issue , wcs is having 6.x .
Dhcp server is on core switch . AP's are connected to access layer sw. i can ping from controller to core switch
i will try the following .. use template config utility and change VOICE ssid to broadcast , then set auth to none and try with my laptops.

I don't like to push templates out. There are some templates that I would push out, but sending a template with preshared key or shared secrets have had issues. Make the changes manually on each WLC.

Certainly i am making some mistake. my laptops also dont get ip address. When i give static ip to 7291 every thing works.
i have configured " interface " as wireless-telephony .
associated it with SSID.
Under the interface i have assigned correct dhcp server ip address . it is our hsrp ip address .
under core switches i did make a pool , with DG , DNS , tftp server ip address. etc
applied and saved the configs
controller can ping , DHCP server .
i am not sure what else i have to do ... your help will be appreciated

Try to remove the dhcp proxy from the WLC and see if that helps. You need to be able to get dhcp from a wired client first before you can get the wireless to work. Makes sure you set an IP helper also. Maybe it's an issue with using the hsrp address. Try using the management of the switch.

Also make sure that the core has a split scope. This will prevent duplicate address.
