Cannot Ping One Cisco IP Phone

We have one Cisco IP Phone that we cannot ping from our computers.  All other phones we can ping.  I can ping the phone from the switch.  It seems to be a layer 3 problem connecting to that one phone&#39;s IP Address.  All the settings on the phone and in the call manager are the same for 2 identical phones.  Just cannot access the one phone.  Cannot access the phone&#39;s device manager through http either.

IP telephony (Internet Protocol telephony) is a general term for the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Using the Internet, calls travel as packets of data on shared lines, avoiding the tolls of the PSTN. The challenge in IP telephony is to deliver the voice, fax, or video packets in a dependable flow to the user.
