[cisco-voip] 7912

[Jim McBurnett]

One thing to remember on the 7912s is that the non A models have a
software switch.
With that said, if they go into a high broadcast or high multicast
environment you MUST use storm control on the ports and you may still
have quality issues.

This concerns the Native VLAN assigned port the phone connects to.
Had this happen, and had to make a number of network changes to solve
the issue.

Later,
Jim

As long as you're happy with their limitations they work fine and we've
quite a large number of them. One other limitation is that they only
support 16 items in the RingList.xml, the 17th item onwards won't be
listed on the phone.
They do actually support "dumb" power over ethernet from devices such as
the 3Com single port midspans and we've a couple set up this way in
places where there are only 1 or 2 phones fed from a comms cabinet.
