Appendix 4-D: LAN Upgrade Test Procedures
The LAN Upgrade Test Procedure checklist is a list of best practices that you should consider when conducting a LAN upgrade.
This appendix is also available at http://www.ciscopress.com/1587200880.
Test at least one port in each CAT 6K 10/100 blade for data and voice traffic. Connect an IP phone and make sure it powers up and registers with the CallManager. Connect a laptop to the IP phone and make sure the laptop can access the network. You can display the configuration of the IP phone by pressing Settings_3 and scrolling through the various configuration parameters. The parameter settings, or lack of settings, indicate how far the phone registration has progressed. Even if the phone does not register, the Ethernet switch portion of the phone will be operational, allowing data from an attached PC to pass through the IP phone. After you disconnect an IP phone from an inline power source, wait 10 seconds before connecting another device. The inline power does not drop to zero immediately after a disconnect and could possibly damage another device. After you put the CAT 6K in production and deploy the IP phones, verify available power in the CAT 6Ks by issuing the show env power command.
