<div dir="ltr"><div>Bill I don't think you situation is comparable to most. You are not using a converged network which is one of the big reasons to go with an IPT system. You have two physical networks one for voice and one for data.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I want to have one physical and two logical networks like I can with Cisco phones and Cisco switches. The phone boots up and changes to the voice vlan and the phones are on the data vlan. I don't care to tell the customer that they must manually configure this but can they still use DHCP for all of the IP info and just manually set the voice vlan? </div>
<div>ALso if I do this how do I set it up on the HP switch side? Is it a trunk or an access port with two vlans? <br><br></div>

<br>CDP is not needed. I don't understand what you mean about hard-code the configuration. DHCP provides the options the phone needs to contact Call Manager.<br><br>I was watching the other thread about Adtran and some of the stuff people said seems quite like FUD. Cisco appreciates this scare-tactic marketing but the truth is that you can use any LAN switch. Using Cisco gear will make your life easier though.

I have a customer that has a significant investment in HP switches. Has anyone used these in a Cisco IPT network? I understand about the CDP issue but what if I hard code the configuration or can I set it as a DHCP option like an Avaya IP phone? anyone tried?<br>
