Patrick,
I have heard from two different clients who deployed Avaya and had many issues
with the firmware on their phones. You might want to see if this is a known
issue with your Avaya rep and see about obtaining a firmware upgrade for the

You can use client class processing on the DHCP server to not offer any leases
to Avaya phones on the pools ( or vlans ) that are NOT meant for the phones.
For the pools (or vlans ) that ARE meant for the phones you can allow all
client classes.
The Avaya phones have a client class identifier
Patrick,
Can you provide the model of switch and config, sanitized if necessary?
The most likely cause is vlan egress, so I would start there.
I'm not familiar with the bootup sequence of Avaya phones, but usually the
phone would only switch to the correct voice vlan if its received the vlan
What's your DHCP setup? Do you have one DHCP server? If so, does it have an
interface in the Voice VLAN or are you using DHCP relay?
If you're using DHCP relay, then ensure your DHCP server port isn't
egressing the Voice VLAN or you'll run into this:

The phones work fine if I set the port vlan to the voice vlan. The issue
