Remove VoIP Setting for PowerConnect 5448 Switch as Recommended by Equallogic

By admin, May 22, 2012 5:38 pm

I was told Power Connect 52xx/54xx series switches are optimized for VoIP and they are no longer recommended by Equallogic as 50% of the available buffers are reserved for VoIP unless you change the setting and REBOOT the switch.

I haven’t tried the following VoIP setting recommended by EQL as I don’t want to mess around my optimized configuration file.

Besides, I think there is an alternative way which I’ve completely disabled VoIP setting using PowerConnect 5448 GUI. There is a check for you to disable VoIP in the Switch session under the GUI.

Go to each switch and do the following:

Put the switch into admin and configuration mode.

enable
configure

Disable/remove iSCSI and VoIP optimization

voice vlan oui-table remove 00036b
voice vlan oui-table remove 00096e
voice vlan oui-table remove 0001e3
voice vlan oui-table remove 000fe2
voice vlan oui-table remove 0060b9
voice vlan oui-table remove 00d01e
voice vlan oui-table remove 00e075
voice vlan oui-table remove 00e0bb

Exit from configuration mode

exit

Save the configuration

copy running-config startup-config

When ready, type ‘reload’ to reboot

reload
