mgaudette · ‎02-07-2013

Hi,

I`ve followed the instructions found here to disable the PC port of my phone.Basically I added the following in my prov. files:

The thing is, no matter what value I put I can`t disable the PC port. I can set it to 10 half-duplex, for example, but not disable it outright. I tried setting device.net.etherModePC.set to "-1" and "Disabled" to no avail.

Any tips? I am clearly using the correct method since the speed of the port changes, but what value should I use to disable completely the PC port from a provisioning file?

Hello mgaudette,

I did a quick test with a SPIP560 running UCS 4.1.0 and the Port Status is shown correctly as inactive if disabled.

Please raise a ticket with Polycom support via your Polycom reseller if you are unable to verify the same functionality.

Hello mgaudette,

I did a quick test on a SPIP650 running UCS 4.1.0

<PCport device.set="1" device.net.etherModePC.set="1" device.net.etherModePC="Disabled" />

and

<PCport device.set="1" device.net.etherModePC.set="1" device.net.etherModePC="-1" />

disable the PC port without issue.

I suggest to check your log files and if the issue persist log a Ticket via your Polycom reseller with our Support team.

Best Regards

Hi Stephen,

I tested it again. The PC connected to the port didn`t seem to reach the network, but on the phone's status page (Status - Ethernet) the PC port showed as "active". Is this normal behavior?

SteffenBaierUK · ‎02-11-2013

Hello mgaudette,

I did test this and the connected PC was unable to gain any connectivity through that network port.

It may be your Operating system or the drivers for the Network card causing what you describe.

If you require further support or details please work with your Polycom reseller.

Best Regards

I`m sorry, I wasn`t clear: the phone`s status for the network PC port says "Active". Not the PC.
