Mitel 5212 setup on watchguard

Hi,

We use Mitel 5212 IP Phones. we are trying to get them to work on a custom VLAN setup on a watchguard m500 firewall. We have created the custom vlan and the ip scope which works fine. I have mimicked the DHCP options from our windows based dhcp server, however this didn't work. On the DHCP windows based DHCP server the options are:

128 Mitel TFTP xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
129 Mitel RTC xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
130 Mitel IP Phone Identifier MITEL IP PHONE
132 VLAN for Mitel IP Phone 0x3
133 priority for Mitel IP Phone 0x6

On the firewall dhcp scop options 9All custom)
Code       Name                                 Type            Value
128         Mitel TFTP                           IP                  xxxxxx
129         Mitel RTC                            IP                    xxxxxx
130        Mitel IP Phone Identifier  Text              MITEL IP PHONE
132        VLAN for Mitel IP Phone   Hex              3
133        Priority for Mitel IP phone Hex             6

When the phone eventually boots it gets a crazy VLAN id. Any clues as to what I am issing, or a how to guide on getting the IP phones to work?

Cheers,
Paul

What VLAN are the phones getting? 48?
Try entering the VLAN value as 03.

Hi the phones get a very random vlan number 581345...… I have spoken with watchguard, who want me to upgrade the fireware version before continuing. Ill try changing the vlan number to 03 and get back to you.

Thanks for your help,
Paul
