Avaya IP office 500 - Cisco Switch Express 500 PoE + Avaya IP ph.16xx - DCHP not relelase IP address

[marjox]

Hello.
We need to configure below equipment for testing purpose:
- n. 1 Avaya IP Office 500
- n. 1 Cisco switch 500 24 ports PoE + 2 ports GbEth
- n. 20 Avaya IP Phone 1608
So, we'll be create below VLAN:
- Default (Native)
- Cisco-Guest (VLAN 3)
- Cisco-Voice (VLAN 4)

We'll be set ports 1-24 with SmartPort configuration:
- role: Desktop + IP Phone
- VLAN: Data --> Default & Voice --> Cisco-Voice

We'll try to connect some Avaya IP Phone 1608:
- PoE supply is working well
- Avaya phone searching for DHCP Server (IP address: 192.168.42.1 on IP Office 500) ---> LAN 192.168.42.x , but not discovered..

I thinking is about IP Office misconfiguration (Voice VLAN address,etc...)
I'm not an expert, of course...and i need help form someone expert !!
Can someone share a similar configuration ?

thanks in advance
Mario

IP routing enabled on switch?

IP helper address?

I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.

...so any suggestion ??
Currently we using below Netgear switch 8 ports:
Switch ProSafe® Fast Ethernet PoE 8 Porte / model FS108P
- 4 ports PoE standard IEEE 802.3af
- 8 porte 10/100 Mbps with AutoUplink
...and all working well without configuration !!

thanks to all.

Is the IPO on an untagged voice vlan port?
Are the phones on a tagged voice vlan port?
What is providing DHCP to the phones and how do they get there vlan info?


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

 

[mattKnight]

So how do you intend to do your intervlan routing?

Is the IPO on an untagged voice vlan port? --> we'll be configure Cisco port both VLAN (data & voice)
Are the phones on a tagged voice vlan port? --> ip phones are tagged voice vlan ports
What is providing DHCP to the phones and how do they get there vlan info? Avaya IP Office providing DCHP service to the phones ..

many thanks

Configure an untagged voice vlan on the port. nothing else.

Are the phones on a tagged voice vlan port? --> ip phones are tagged voice vlan ports
That is good.

What is providing DHCP to the phones and how do they get there vlan info? Avaya IP Office providing DCHP service to the phones ..
The phone do start in the data vlan so they should get an option 242 from there so that they know there vlan info.
Configure an option 242 with L2Q=1, L2QVLAN=4
Only then it will start working.

I'll be appreciated.
