Network Statistics
The following network statistics hyperlinks on a phone’s web page provide information about network
traffic on the phone. To display a network statistics area, access the web page for the phone as described
in the “Accessing the Web Page for a Phone” section on page 6-2.
• Ethernet Information—Displays information about Ethernet traffic. Table 6-3 describes the items in
this area.
• Network Information (Cisco Unified IP Phone 6901)—Displays information about network traffic
to and from the network port (10/100 SW) on the phone. Table 6-5 describes the items in this area.
• Network and Access Information (Cisco Unified IP Phone 6911)—Displays information about
network traffic to and from the network port (10/100 SW) on the phone. Table 6-5 describes the
items in this area.
Web Access Enabled Indicates whether web access is enabled (Yes) or disabled (No) for the phone.
Span to PC Port
(Cisco Unified IP Phone
6911 only)
Indicates whether the phone will forward packets transmitted and received on the network
port to the access port.
CDP: PC Port
(Cisco Unified IP Phone
6911 only)
Indicates whether CDP is supported on the PC port (default is enabled).
Enable CDP on the PC port when Cisco VT Advantage/Unified Video Advantage (CVTA) is
connected to the PC port. CVTA does not work without CDP interaction with the phone.
When CDP is disabled in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, a warning is displayed,
indicating that disabling CDP on the PC port prevents CVTA from working.
The current PC and switch port CDP values are shown on the Settings menu.
CDP: SW Port Indicates whether CDP is supported on the switch port (default is enabled).
Enable CDP on the switch port for VLAN assignment for the phone, power negotiation, QoS
management, and 802.1x security.
Enable CDP on the switch port when the phone is connected to a Cisco switch.
When CDP is disabled in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, a warning is presented,
indicating that CDP should be disabled on the switch port only if the phone is connected to a
non-Cisco switch.
The current PC and switch port CDP values are shown on the Settings menu.
