Register cisco phones via LLDP

[miguelbrsantos]

Hello.

I´m trying to connect my cisco phones to a Fortigate 60D and register them via LLDP. Has anyone had any luck with this?

I´ve activated LLDP in the global settings but no magic is happening. Any ideias?

Comands: # config system global # set lldp-transmission enable

Thanks.

I´ve made some progress with this subject but still haven´t got it to work like it should. One of the phones that is connected to the fortiswitch is going to the correct VLAN and registering with my call manager but LLDP does not seem to work on any other of my phones. I don´t see any LLDP activity from any other phones. What i´ve done so far is:

After establishing the fortinlink i´ve added the following configurations:

On my fortigate:

1) Created a LLDP voice profile: config switch-controller lldp-profile edit "voice" set med-tlvs inventory-management network-policy config med-network-policy edit "voice" set status enable set vlan 20 next edit "voice-signaling" set status enable set vlan 20 next edit "guest-voice" next edit "guest-voice-signaling" next edit "softphone-voice" next edit "video-conferencing" next edit "streaming-video" next edit "video-signaling" next end end 2) Enable LLDP: config system global set lldp-transmission enable end config system settings set lldp-transmission enable end 3) Enable LLDP on the fortilink interface: config system interface edit "internal5" set lldp-transmission enable next end On my fortiswitch: config switch physical-port edit "port1" set lldp-profile "voice" set poe-pre-standard-detection disable set speed auto next end

I finally found out what the problem was. Some of my phones were in a firmware version that did not support LLDP. After updating the phone firmware all phones are registering correctly.
