IP Phone Prioritization

Use the IP Phone Prioritization section to enable or
disable traffic prioritization for NBX or other IP
phones. Table 14 lists the available options for this
section.
CAUTION: To ensure that the Switch recognizes the
NBX or other IP phone during phone initialization, do
not connect any data source to the phone until the
phone has finished booting up.
Once the phone is available for use, any data source
(for example, a computer) can then be connected to
the phone's pass-through port. This only applies if
you use a single wall jack for your network connec-
tion and use the pass-through LAN port on the IP
phone.

List of Detected Phones

This section displays the MAC addresses of IP phones
that are detected and given priority by the Switch. To
display a phone that is connected to a port, select the
port from the drop-down list.
Description
Select to automatically detect and
prioritize traffic from all NBX
phones that are connected to the
Switch.
By default, this option is selected.
If you are not using NBX phones
and you know the Organizational
Unique Identifier (OUI) for the
phones, select this option, and then
type the OUI in the fields provided.
If this option is selected and the
OUI specified, the Switch will auto-
matically detect these phones and
prioritize traffic to and from them.
An OUI (sometimes called 'vendor
ID') is the first 24 bits of a MAC
address for a network-connected
device (in this case, a phone), which
indicate the specific vendor for that
device.
