New user of powerconnect 7048P Vlan and routing problems.
Hello All,
I bought a powerconnect 7048P to run as my core switch with my vmware, and then be able to support my 9971 phones and wifi access points with POE. So far every thing was working fine, however now I need to create my voice vlan and get routing working there is where I am running into issues.
My internal network is 10.0.0.0/16
my domain controllers (DNS, DHCP, etc) are at 10.0.2.1 and 10.0.2.2
My current switch config is:
!Current Configuration:
!System Description "PowerConnect 7048P, 5.1.0.1, VxWorks 6.6"
!System Software Version 5.1.0.1
!System Operational Mode "Normal"
!
configure
vlan 5-10,20,30,40
exit
vlan 5
name "WLC_Vlan"
exit
vlan 6
name "AP1_Vlan"
exit
vlan 7
name "AP2_Vlan"
exit
vlan 8
name "AP3_Vlan"
exit
vlan 9
name "AP4_Vlan"
exit
vlan 10
name "Guest_Vlan"
exit
vlan 20
name "Voice_Vlan"
exit
hostname "coresw"
slot 1/0 6 ! PowerConnect 7048P
sntp unicast client enable
sntp client poll timer 128
sntp server 10.0.2.1
sntp server 10.0.2.2
clock summer-time recurring USA
clock timezone -8 minutes 0
stack
member 1 6 ! PCT7048P
exit
ip name-server "10.0.2.1"
ip name-server "10.0.2.2"
ip default-gateway 10.0.0.1
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 253
ip helper-address 10.0.2.1 domain
ip helper-address 10.0.2.2 domain
ip helper-address 10.0.2.1 dhcp
ip helper-address 10.0.2.2 dhcp
ip helper-address 10.0.2.1 ntp
ip helper-address 10.0.2.2 ntp
interface vlan 1
ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.0.0
exit
interface vlan 20
ip address 10.20.0.1 255.255.0.0
ip netdirbcast
ip local-proxy-arp
exit
username "craig" password REMOVED privilege 15 encrypted
voice vlan
ip ssh server
power-usage-history sampling-interval 30
!
interface Gi1/0/38
gvrp enable
switchport mode general
voice vlan 20
voice vlan auth disable
exit
snmp-server engineid local REMOVED
snmp-server agent boot count 2
enable password REMOVED encrypted
exit
So, my issues are, for the life of me I can't get DHCP from my phone on the voice vlan over to my DHCP servers on 10.0.2.1 and 2.2. When I hook up a machine to the port it properly places it in vlan 1 and everything works fine. WHen I plug in a phone, it identifies the vlan as 20, and I never see an ip-helper DHCP request to the server. I did create the scope and range in DHCP for the 10.20.0.0 requests as well.
Any thoughts on what I am missing?
Thanks
Craig

In order to communicate across VLANs with routing you will need to set an IP on the VLAN interfaces that are routing this will make the VLAN layer 3 (routing) capable.
console(config)# interface VLAN 5
console(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.0
The VLANs will need different subnet ranges that are not overlapping. The IP set on the VLAN will be the default gateway of all devices in that VLAN. Something to consider is subnetting the 10.0.0.0 /16 network into smaller subnets where you can assign those separate subnets to your different VLANs. VLANs by there nature are a segregated subnet.
Also you will need to enable routing on the switch globally.
console(config)#ip routing

Hello,
You will notice from this point in the configuration :
interface vlan 1
ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.0.0
exit
interface vlan 20
ip address 10.20.0.1 255.255.0.0
ip netdirbcast
ip helper-address 10.0.3.10 tftp
ip local-proxy-arp
exit
i have ip addressses assigned to both vlans 1 and 20. I did not have the ip routing global command, and that I have added along with a ip helper-address for a tftp server. Still nothing!

Here is an example of how the voice port is set up. By default VLAN 1 is the native untagged VLAN if you were to use a different VLAN for the data you would want to add that to the configuration as untagged.
interface ethernet Gi1/0/38
spanning-tree portfast
switchport mode general
switchport general allowed vlan add 20 tagged
voice vlan 20
exit
Here is a thread that is similar.

If the VoIP phones support CDP, you should Disable CDP on the phones. The Powerconnect devices are not compatible with that proprietary protocol.
