Best way to configure 4 CE500 and 1 2960G

[malarie]

Hi,

I have 4 CE500 and 1 2960G. I would like to know an example of a good connction configuration.

Right now my setup is far from optimal because I had some problems. For some reasons I could not have my IP phones to register with the Call Manager if all 4 CE 500s were connected in the 2960G. I needed to connect all my CE500 switches together using a random port (not the 1GB port) in order for them to register with the Call Manager.

This setup wont work with my ip phone if I dont link the CE500s together using a random port :( I dont know why.

try upgrading the IOS of all of the CE500 (get the latest version)then, trunk the switch to switch connections (for CE500 make it a switch)

hope this helps

rgds,

ben
