  • Page 1 Telephones and Avaya IP Telephones – Issue 1.0 Abstract These Application Notes describe the configuration of the NETGEAR® PROSAFE™ 8 Port FS108P, PROSAFE™ 16 Port FS116P and PROSAFE™ 24 Port FS726TP switch and Avaya 4600/9600 Series IP Telephones registered to Avaya Communication Manager and Avaya one-X Quick Edition G10 PSTN Gateway.
  • Page 2 The NETGEAR PROSAFE 8 Port (FS108P) and 16 Port (FS116P) switches provide 4/8 ports of PoE and 4/8 ports without PoE. These unmanaged switches can be used to power Avaya telephones successfully without configuration;...

  • Page 5 3. Configure the Avaya Media Server and Media Gateway The configuration of the Avaya Media Server and Media Gateway should follow the standard Avaya recommendations for IP Telephony [1]. In general a Quality of Service (QoS) policy must be established across the entire IP network. The Differentiated Services (DiffServ) Code Point (DSCP) values used by Avaya Communication Manager and by the FS726TP must be the same.
  • Page 6 With the unmanaged FS108P and FS116P switches, traffic prioritization is not supported by the NETGEAR products. It is unlikely that the ports for the Avaya Media Server or Media Gateway would be plugged directly into these small switches. More likely the NETGEAR switches would be attached to the LAN and the telephones would access the Avaya Media Server and Media Gateway over the corporate LAN.

  • Page 8 Select the Power over Ethernet Configuration (POE in the left window). The default values should be adequate, but should be verified (see Figure 4). Figure 4: NETGEAR FS726TP PoE Configuration If the Admin Mode is not Enable, select the port and Enable PoE from the Admin pull-down menu.
  • Page 9 Class 0 or Class 3 devices are used, Medium priority should be assigned to one group of the Class 0/3 devices and Low to a second group. Figure 6: NETGEAR FS726TP PoE Priority Assign enough Low Priority ports so that if the Max System Power Available is exceeded, the high priority devices in the enterprise will be powered.
  • Page 10 The Per Hop Behavior (PHB) Value used in on the Avaya Communications Manager (Figure 3), is the decimal value of the DSCP entry in the NETGEAR table. The Audio PHB of 46 decimal is 101110 binary. The Control PHB of 26 decimal is 011010 binary.
  • Page 11 For the uplink port that will be used to connect the FS726TP to the router, select T Tag egress packets. Leave the reminder of the ports out (Not member) of the Voice VLAN. Figure 8: NETGEAR FS726TP Voice VLAN Configuration Select Apply. Repeat the process to create the Data VLAN (100).
  • Page 12 PoE Ports and the uplink port as the default VLAN for those ports. Select Apply. Figure 9: NETGEAR FS726TP PVID (Default) VLAN Configuration Using the Data VLAN as the Default VLAN for the Avaya IP Telephones is essential to the correct operation of a PC attached to the telephone.
  • Page 13 This priority method is not VLAN specific on the FS726TP. Open the NETGEAR web interface and select QoS from the left window. Then select IEEE 802.1P Based QoS from the pull-down menu. Select High from the QoS pull-down menu for Priority 6.
  • Page 14 The telephones and the G10 Gateway are powered by PoE. The configuration of the FS726TP needs two additional settings to support QE. In the left hand menu of the NETGEAR Web Page select Advanced and then IGMP Snooping Status. Disable both the IGMP Function and Block Unknown Multicast Address. Select Apply.

    Edition G10 Gateway port to the PSTN. Verify that the audio quality is acceptable. Power cycle the NETGEAR switch. Verify that all of the Avaya one-X Quick Edition telephone and an Avaya one-X Quick Edition G10 Gateway power up and discover each other. Place phone calls to verify the Avaya one-X Quick Edition telephone and an Avaya one-X Quick Edition G10 Gateway are operational.
  • Page 18 6.3. Verification Steps for the FS726TP PoE After power cycling the FS726TP, attach a PC to the PC port of one of the Avaya IP Telephones. Open a web browser with the IP address of the FS726TP. Select POE from the left hand menu and verify that all of the Avaya IP Telephones are being powered as expected (Figure 4).
