Network Configuration Area Items (continued)

 

 

 

Item

 

Description

 

 

 

Span to PC Port

 

Indicates whether the phone will forward packets transmitted and received on the network

 

 

port to the access port.

 

 

 

PC VLAN

 

VLAN used to identify and remove 802.1P/Q tags from packets sent to the PC.

 

 

Forwarding Delay

Indicates whether the internal switch begins forwarding packets between the PC port and

 

 

switched port on the phone when the phone becomes active.

 

 

 

LLDP: PC Port

 

Indicates whether Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is enabled on the PC port.

 

 

LLDP-MED: SW Port

Indicates whether Link Layer Discovery Protocol Media Endpoint Discovery

 

 

(LLDP-MED) is enabled on the switch port.

 

 

LLDP Power Priority

Advertises the phone’s power priority to the switch, enabling the switch to appropriately

 

 

provide power to the phones. Settings include:

 

 

Unknown—default

 

 

Low

 

 

High

 

 

Critical

 

 

 

LLDP Asset ID

 

Identifies the asset ID assigned to the phone for inventory management.

 

 

 

CDP: PC Port

 

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.

 

 

Note 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.

 

 

Note 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.

 

 

Note 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.

 

 

Note The current PC and switch port CDP values are shown on the Settings menu.

 

 

LLDP Power Priority

Advertises the phone’s power priority to the switch, enabling the switch to appropriately

 

 

provide power to the phones. Settings include:

 

 

Unknown—default

 

 

Low

 

 

High

 

 

Critical

 

 

 

LLDP Asset ID

 

Identifies the asset ID assigned to the phone for inventory management.
