Greetings, I have a 4621SW at my desk. I had to write the configuration file from scratch and in doing so read through a LOT of Avaya documentation.
Without doing 802.1x, you'll have to setup the phone to tag the traffic to put it in a different VLAN. You'll need something like this in your phone configuration to set the secondary (PC) port on the phone to the correct VLAN: SET VLANSEP 1 SET L2QVLAN Y SET PHY2VLAN X X=data vlan Y=voice vlan I don't know if this will resolve your initial question regarding DNS. I am guessing you're having some VLANing issues. I suggest reworking that site to use 802.1x so your Enterasys switch can differentiate between phones and PCs. Then you can trust the Enterasys to do the work for you. www.avayausers.com is a pretty good resource for Avaya related technical questions.

Nick, One further thought is whether or not the phones “switch” is enabled. If it works direct, but not through a phone, I’d say the problem is the phone! Set up a port mirror so you can capture traffic to an analyser and see what you get from the PC.

Hi Patrick, Phone and PC have different IP addresses. We don't use 802.1x or any auth like that - is that what you meant? N.

On the switch, does it see both the PC and the phone and that each has authenticated properly? On the PC, what IP does it say it has in an ipconfig? Is it the same as the phone?

Hi, An odd issue has been reported on one of our remote sites in Manchester. They have a C2H124-48P with a number of Avaya 9630G IP Phones. When they connect a PC directly to the switch, that PC's hostname is registered correctly on the DNS server. However, when the PC is connected via the passthru in the back of the phone, although the phone registers itself ok in DNS, the PC doesn't. I don't have software and firmware revisions to hand but everything is pretty recent - just thought I'd ask to see if anyone had encountered a similar issue? One thing that differs from our site here in London (where we don't have the issue) is that we have a Voice VLAN and a Data VLAN to separate the traffic, whereas in Manchester, at the moment everything's on the same default VLAN. Another thing is that the Enterasys switch is linked to a Netgear core switch (don't ask). We could obviously do packet traces but as we'll have to talk them through doing that, thought it worth asking the list first if anyone has ever encountered a similar issue or can think of any logical reason why this might be so? It could be an Avaya issue I know, but trying all angles. Thanks, Nick.
