9620L Phones - Waiting on LLDP 4

[robspwing]

Hi All,

Thanks in advance. We are running IPO 500 R7. We just purchased some 9620L phones and during the initial boot up the phone will hang at the Waiting on LLDP for about 60 seconds.

I did check out the the other post here that took me to this:

my current 96xxupgrade.txt is newer than the one in the link above so that did not help.

I also see in the tek-tips post that you should add string 242 in the DHCP options. However, we use the IPO to hand out the IP address instead of using a DHCP server.

I can press * to program and scroll to the VLAN ID and enter the correct VLAN ID and reboot the phone and it will work but I was trying to bypass doing that step.


one more thing-- on the 9620L phones that we do have working, I do not see a log off button..any idea where that is?

Thanks

Doc, we better back up. We don't have enough road to get up to 88.

we have two companies under one roof and we split the VLANs for voice and data for each company.
(180 users in Company A and 75 users in Company B)

We wanted to make sure that we did not run out of IP's also by using one DHCP scope.

We user both Lan1 and Lan2 on the IPO for the DHCP server option.

For ease I would have used a class B addressing scheme. You can only have the handsets in one VLAN at a time, they will boot in the native VLAN until told otherwise by a DHCP server/LLDP, they can't be told two different VLAN's and expected to know which one to use, how could they. You need a class b or keep networks seperate and statically assign one companies handsets VLAN id at the start

DO you do DHCP for each company on the same server? are they on different scopes? depending on how your switch ports are set up you may be able to put different 242 strings into different Data scopes. how do your PC's know what VLAN to come up in?

PC's are blind to VLAN's they are in whatever is their native/untagged VLAN for the port they are connected to

We set the VLAN at the switch level for the pc's and the phones.
On the IPO we have LAN1 for VLAN 300 and LAN2 for VLAN 350

VLAN 300 and 350 are both for voice, we created two due to having two companies under one roof and we did not want to run out of IP's on one VLAN.
