How do I setup my Network for VOIP 2

[gingersnap1027]

Hi All,

I am trying to get VOIP running on my Avaya G3siV12 or Communications Manager 2.0 PBX. I have a MedPro and separate CLAN up and running in their own VLAN. I'm trying to get the phone running and all it does is reboot.

Do I need this network to be routable?

THe phone needs to poll for DHCP and when it hits the native VLAN on the network it needs to either be directed to the voice vlan via a short option 176 string ... or it needs to have the entire option 176 string if its already in the proper vlan.


The option 176 will look something like this:

"MCIPADD=XXX.XXX.128.34,XXX.XXX.128.35,XXX.XXX.128.36,MCPORT=1719,HTTPSRVR=XXX.XXX.145.16,HTTPDIR=/tftproot/"

Depending on your setup you may use FTP ins6tead of TFTP in which case it would look more like:

"MCIPADD=XXX.XXX.128.34,XXX.XXX.128.35,XXX.XXX.128.36,MCPORT=1719,TFTPSRVR=XXX.XXX.128.52,TFTPDIR=/"
p/code]

I've obviously masked our IP with XXX.XXX. You can find more detailed info in the Lan Administrators guide and the admin guide for 46xx series IP phones.

Sorry about the typo there. It should looks like:

Depending on your setup you may use FTP ins6tead of TFTP in which case it would look more like:

"MCIPADD=XXX.XXX.128.34,XXX.XXX.128.35,XXX.XXX.128.36,MCPORT=1719,TFTPSRVR=XXX.XXX.128.52,TFTPDIR=/"

Thats what I get for not previewing my posts.

get your distributor explain to you how VOIP works in the Avaya and what you need to do in the network. (qos,dhch,tftp,www)

What is your current network? How are the phones plugged in? If you have a separate subnet range in the phone VLAN have you set a helper address for the DHCP server?

I've had that happen when there's been no VOIP Resource available
do a list trace station and then reboot the handset, see if you get any denials

read this guide it contains everything you should need to know
