Wow, that reply should help you solve that problem lickety split!

 

Try turning off GARP on the phone, disable web access and turn off voice
vlan access.

Just a note

I Hate 500 Express it is a very bad switch and it has a lot of strange
configuration setting plus no useful troubleshooting capabilities at
all.

Hi all,

 

Some end user plugged the pc port and switch port of an IP Phone to a
Catalyst CE500 port at the same time causing our client's switch on a
loop.

 

CE500--------7912 IP Phone

  |                        |

  |------------------------|

 

We can't prevent end user making accidental mistakes like this which
might cause network failure. 

 

I was wondering if Cisco IP phones are sending BPDU so that the CE500
will errdisable the port. Doesn't it?

 

Any way to prevent the this from happening? 

 

Thanks,

Jeff
