Introduction

An essential report for ensuring good voice quality as it validates the QoS settings on every individual IP Phone. The Phone Data report contains some 42 parameters downloaded from the IP Phone hardware itself. (Those not on the report pdf can be found in the csv export.)

This means that the data presented is verbatim - there is no need to assume that the configuration a phone picks up from DHCP and the 46XXSettings file is applied correctly. These settings, as they apply to each IP Phone are seen in this report.

Uses

This report can be used to:

  • Validate essential QoS parameters aligned with the system design.
  • Identify IP Phone configuration issues prior to looking at the IP network.
  • Easily identify inconsistencies in IP Phone configuration and firmware within and across sites.
  • Ensure IP Phones are in the correct V-LAN.
  • Check the speed and duplex of both Ethernet ports on the IP Phone.
  • See which DHCP scope has been picked up by the IP Phone.
  • Capture the serial number of every IP Phone for asset management.
