3.2.1 LAN Port Settings
The OpenScape Desk Phone CP200/205/400/600 phone provides an integrated switch which
connects the LAN, the phone itself and a PC port. By default, the switch will auto negotiate
transfer rate (10/100/1000 Mb/s autosensing, configurable, Gigabit not available on
OpenScape Desk Phone CP200) and duplex method (full or half duplex) with whatever equip-
ment is connected. Optionally, the required transfer rate and duplex mode can be specified
manually using the LAN Port Speed parameter.
The PC Ethernet port (default setting: Disabled) is controlled by the PC port mode parameter.
If set to "Disabled", the PC port is inactive; if set to "Enabled", it is active. If set to "Mirror", the
data traffic at the LAN port is mirrored at the PC port. This setting is for diagnostic purposes. If,
for instance, a PC running Ethereal/Wireshark is connected to the PC port, all network activities
at the phone’s LAN port can be captured.
When PC port autoMDIX is enabled, the switch determines automatically whether a regular
MDI connector or a MDI-X (crossover) connector is needed, and configures the connector ac-
cordingly.
Data required
• LAN port speed: Settings for the ethernet port connected to a LAN switch.
Value range: "Automatic," "10 Mbps half duplex", "10 Mbps full duplex", "100 Mbps half du-
plex", "100 Mbps full duplex", "1 Gbps full duplex" (OpenScape Desk Phone CP205, Open-
Scape Desk Phone CP400 and OpenScape Desk Phone CP600 only) .
Default: "Automatic"
>
In the default configuration, the LAN port supports automatic detection of cable con-
figuration (pass through or crossover cable) and will reconfigure itself as needed to
connect to the network. If the phone is set up to manually configure the switch port
settings, the cable detection mechanism is disabled. In this case care must be taken
to use the correct cable type.
>
Do not use this connection for further OpenScape Desk Phone CP or OpenStage
phones!
>
Removing the power from the phone or a phone reset/reboot will result in the tem-
porary loss of the network connection to the PC port.
