Hi

apologies if this is in the wrong forum, I was torn between the Voip one and here

I have recently installed a cisco 300 series 48 port switch in one of our branch offices. The switch is configured with 2 vlans VLAN 8 for data and VLAN 9 for voice. We are using Mitel 5312 IP phones which are configured with static values(no DHCP server)

Interfaces 2-48 have been configured as trunk ports with a native vlan 8 for data and to allow vlan 9 for voip. When connecting the phone to the switch everything works great, the phone connects to the PBX and all is good. If I then connect a PC to the back of the phone the PC is unable to communicate with the DHCP server and assigns itself an APIPA.

If I take the phone out of the equation and plug the PC directly into the switch it works fine DHCP assigns the PC the correct details and all is good.

The following is from the running config on the switch:

I tested this before I left the office and did not encounter this issue myself. However the thin clients have been installed in the new office and they are experiencing the issue.

Does anyone have any thoughts to guide me in the right direction? It looks to me like the macro is not applying correctly based on fe3 and fe15. Can I disable this 'auto detect' option and manually tell the switch which vlan to use(I thought I had done this by setting the native vlan).

Normally I would use the following command on the specific interfaces

switchport access vlan 8
switchport voice vlan 9

but the switchport voice command is not recognised.

Thanks

Hi,

Have you tried the following command - "voice vlan state auto-enabled"?
 
Hi,

Ran the command from global config and the problem still exists.

Thanks
 
TBH

I'd use

interface fastethernet0/1
switchport access vlan 8
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan 9

While I can't guarantee that it will work for MITEL phones, it certainly does for Avaya!

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.
 
Thanks Matt, normally this is what I would do however the 300 series switch appears to have a watered down version of IOS that I have not used before so the switchport voice command normally issued on a specific interface or range of interfaces is not recognised.
 
I've never used Mitel phones before so this might be a dumb question but is the PC port on the phone turned off? Your config looks good and if you have already tested the configuration and it worked then it shouldn't be the switch.

Ah well...

(I could be mean and sak why you are using cheap switches :-D)

It's the auto smartport macros, I think. They are more trouble then they are worth. You can either edit the macro or just use no macro auto smartport on all the ports.

 
switchport trunk" with "native vlan 8" and "allowed vlan 9" should give you exactly what you need, the proof being that both phones and PCs work fine off these ports.

The fact the PCs don't work through the phone seems to indicate that the phone config is not correct. The phone needs its LAN port configured to match the switchport config(vlan8 untagged, vlan9 tagged), and its PC port to be set for vlan8 untagged.
