Hello,
I am running voice and data both on one subnet. I have all of my computers and phones currently using 192.168.100.1 as their gateway. I need to start using 192.168.100.25 for the phones only so they can talk to our IPO on a 2nd subnet. I'm having the hardest time figuring out how to do this... Any suggestions?

Things I have tried:
- Setting up IP Route in Avaya IPO Manager
- DHCP from my Windows server (option 176)

Additionally, is there any way to specify a gateway address in that option 176 control?

Thank you!
 
it gets the gateway right from the DHCP not the 176 options. what ever is in your scope as the DHCP server is what they will get.

Ah, I see. Is there any way to assign a different IP to just the phones then, or is that the only way?
Thanks!

What are you trying to achieve?

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
 
We're in the middle of an office move, but we still have some equipment (and DID lines associated with) our empty building. So, our IP Office units are split up at the moment.

The main gateway (100.1) at our office points all traffic out to one ISP (not ATT). Since this is the "03 Router" entry in DHCP, the phones get this value as well for their gateway (we have mostly Avaya 5610s).

Our seperate VoIP ISP (ATT) is using the gateway of 100.25. I'm trying to find a way for the phones to get this gateway address automatically assigned to them through DHCP.
Because the Gateway IP is not correctly set, when people call the DID numbers that are still associated with the old building, the caller cannot hear the voice of the recipient. I have tested it, and changing that Gateway IP resolves the issue... but, it would take me a few hours to go around to manually switch every phone, and when they get rebooted, I'd be back to square one because of DHCP.

I hope that was clear.
Thanks for your help!
 
Maybe you could get the phones to boot into a different VLAN but then all your switches would need to be configured for that too

To the best of my knowledge you can't issue 2 gateway addresses by DHCP as you want.

However, set a static route in the non ATT router to push all traffic for the IP Office to 100.25.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

I tried to set up that static route as you suggested (in both the non ATT router and the IP Office Manager), but I can't seem to get it to work.
I'll keep poking around.

In the meantime, I had to program each phone individually with the gateway (and IP addresses) that they need in order to work correctly.
