Name of problem
B179 with R2.3.2/2.3.3 software does not obtain IP address when connected to Avaya Cajun LAN Ethernet
Switch with VLAN enabled
Products affected
Avaya B179 SIP Conference Phone with R2.3.2 and R2.3.3 software
Problem description
Avaya has identified an issue when the B179 SIP Conference Phone is connected to the Avaya Cajun Ethernet switch with VLAN
enabled. The Avaya Cajun Ethernet switches (P13x and P33x wiring closet LAN switches and C36x stackable LAN switches) strip
off VLAN tags on the access ports; thus causing operational issues when the B179 is configured for VLAN. Under such condition
where the Avaya Cajun switch is configured for VLAN and DHCP Option 242 is configured with VLAN tagging enabled, the B179
will not be able to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.
Avaya is not aware of any VLAN interoperability issue with the B179 and other Ethernet switches.
Resolution
The issue will be resolved in a later release of the B179 software. This PSN will be updated on availability of that software
Workaround or alternative remediation
This issue will not occur if the associated Avaya Cajun LAN switch is not configured for VLAN. Another alternative is to use the
older R2.3.0 and R2.3.1 software on the B179 and leave VLAN disabled in the setting.
