Comware

We are migrating from an older HP 5406zl switch to the newer 1930 or 1960

• On ports 1-24 I office that use IP phones and computers, most share a single line.
• On ports 25-48 are our equipment copiers etc. There are a few timeclocks scattered.

Here is my scheme

• 50 vlan (default)
• 51 vlan_voice
• 53 Timeclock
• I've set up the vlan /voice vlan and have set the type of phone (Avaya)
• I have tagged port 1-24 with vlan 51 for the phone
• I have tagged the fiber lines that go out to the timeclocks on the site vlan 53

The problem

• The older switch has dhcp and provides addresses for the vlan 51 and vlan 53
• I have a dhcp server for all the computers
• I can NOT figure out how to get the phones to attach to vlan 51 and the timeclocks attach to vlan 53,
• I would expect to assign them by mac address. I have to keep those items on the old switch until
• I figure out how to assign them to the vlan and
• The switch assign them an address.

Hi,

1930 and 1960 are InstantON (SMB product line). You will have better chances in InstantOn forums.

You didn't mention that you also tagged vlan 51 to uplinks. I assume you did.

You should have vlan 53 untagged on ports with timeclock devices.

You can configure DHCP server per network (vlan) on 1960.
