1. AVA DESCRIPTION
The purpose of AVA is to avoid having to configure VLAN on the Alcatel IP terminals (IP Phones V2,
IP Touch). During the boot sequence the IP Phone gets its VLAN configuration and then performs a
DHCP request on this VLAN. This feature is based on DHCP protocol, and as a result the IP Phone
must be configured in dynamic mode.
The AVA feature is available in the OmniPCX Enterprise from Release 5.1 and works only with
eReflexes and IP Touch terminals (in this document, they will be called IP Phones).
From OmniPCX Enterprise Release 6.2, you can also configure AVA on an external DHCP (third
party DHCP).
1.1. AVA sequence quick description

During the initialization phase, the IP Phone asks for a VLAN ID on the native VLAN using DHCP
protocol.
The OmniPCX (or the external DHCP) replies with a DHCP offer, giving the VLAN ID and an IP
address taken from the IP address plan of the native VLAN, from which the DHCP request came.
If the AVA is managed on OmniPCX Enterprise, an IP address has to be reserved on each VLAN
in which at least one IP Phone makes an AVA request. If the AVA is managed on external DHCP,
an address of the range of native VLAN will be used.
The IP Phone then makes a second DHCP request on the VLAN (802.1Q tagged frames) using
the VLAN ID given.
The OmniPCX or third party DHCP server replies and gives an IP address on the VLAN in
question.
1.2. AVA sequence detailed description

Here is the detailed diagram of the AVA DHCP sequence. In this diagram the AVA DHCP server and
a non AVA DHCP server could be an OmniPCX Enterprise or an external DHCP server.

DHCP Action
AVA DHCP
IP Phone
Servers
Non AVA
DHCP Server
DHCP Discover: IP Phone sends its first DHCP frame.
DHCP offer from non AVA DHCP server: If no other

frames are received within ten seconds, the offer will be
accepted and the process continues normally. The IP
Phone will not dialog with tagged traffic.
Note: If a third party DHCP server is used, the frame is
accepted only if the IP Phone is set in "dynamic" mode
and not "dynamic Alcatel" mode.
DHCP offer from AVA DHCP server: VLAN ID is
present in the offer. VLAN ID offer frames are received
by the IP Phone in priority.
DHCP Request: The IP Phone accepts the AVA offer.
Before version 3.17 / 3.60.72(1), the IP Phone tells the
other DHCP servers to release the IP address by
specifying the Call Server address which is in the Next
Server field. There will not be DHCP ACK.
DHCP ACK: The chosen DHCP server confirms the
allocated IP address (after 3.17 / 3.60.72(1))
DHCP Release : The IP Phone releases the address
which is useless, from the DHCP server.
Note: The "DHCP release" is only available from version
3.17 / 3.60.72(1) of IP Touch.
DHCP Discover: IP Phone executes a second discover
DHCP request, this one is in the tagged VLAN using the
previously given VLAN ID.
DHCP Offer from DHCP server which handles the IP
network (there can be one or more than one answer)
(the answer could have been made by the AVA Server).
DHCP Request: The IP Phone accepts the offer from
the server and tells the other DHCP servers it has made
a choice.
DHCP ACK: The chosen DHCP server confirms the IP
address allocated to the IP Phone.

RESTRICTIONS
(1) Version 3.17 is available from version F3.301.22

Version 3.60.72 is available from version F4.401.19.b
CAUTION : If a set in 3.17 or 3.60.72 makes AVA requests on an OmniPCX Enterprise DHCP using
a version lower than F4.401.17, the OmniPCX Enterprise will not reply ACK and the IP Touch will not
restart.
Note: In versions 1.59 to 1.60, 2.55 and 3.12 to 3.14 of IP Touch, a "DHCP Decline" has been
introduced, it can raise problem in certain network architectures, this method was abandoned.
1.3. Network capture snapshots to illustrate the latest AVA mechanism

The following traffic capture snapshots show the AVA sequence in more detail. In these traffic
captures the following were used (see Figure 1):
One switch router which hosts and routes:
10.10.1.0/24 (on native VLAN 1)
10.10.3.0/24 (on native VLAN 3)
10.10.30.0/24 (tagged VLAN 30)
10.10.100.0/24 (on native VLAN 100).
All the router addresses are set at x.x.x.254 and they forward DHCP traffic to the DHCP servers
10.100.1.1.
One IP Phone on a switch port configured with native VLAN 3 (and IP address network
10.10.3.0/24) and tagged VLAN 30 (10.10.30.0/24).
One DHCP server 10.100.1.1 configured for AVA and for giving IP addresses of tagged
network.

2. RESTRICTIONS
This feature is compatible with switches supporting untagged and 802.1Q tagged frames on the
same port and with routers supporting DHCP relay.
Network design restriction in implementing AVA: If non Alcatel switches are used, there must be
at least one source IP network per assigned voice VLAN: the VLAN request (using DHCP frames) is
coming from a IP subnetwork and only one VLAN can be configured and assigned per IP range.
Examples for a design based on non Alcatel switches
One native VLAN for one Voice VLAN: OK (Figure 2).
Two or more native VLANs for one Voice VLAN: OK in this case, there must be as many IP
scope setup as native VLANs in the DHCP server. In each of them, the option 43 will be
configured to assign the Vlan Id (Figure 2).
One native VLAN for two or more Voice VLAN: NOK (1) in this case, it is not possible to
differentiate between the DHCP source request and so to attribute the correct Voice VLAN Id
(Figure 3).

NOK for non Alcatel switches. For Alcatel switches handling the Vlan Mobile, this design
is also OK.

3. AVA COMPATIBILITY
Since the AVA feature is based on the DHCP protocol, it should work correctly on all network
equipment supporting the features described in paragraph 2 RESTRICTIONS and all third party
DHCP servers.
CAUTION
If AVA is implemented on an third party DHCP server and for IP Phone versions lower than 3.17
(F3.301.22 and below) or 3.60.72 (F4.401.19.b), the release problem of the IP addresses used for
the Vlan allocation is raised. Indeed if a minimal configuration is performed, the addresses used to
supply the Vlan Id are reserved on the server during all the duration of the lease, while they are not
really used. Certain DHCP servers (as ICS) allows to identify the requests resulting from Alcatel IP
Phone and to reduce the lease in some seconds for the addresses used to deliver the Vlan Id. If the
third party DHCP server does not allow such a management, the TFTP server address must be
configured at a different address then the DHCP server's one (we recommend to set up the Call
Server address). This configuration allows to set up the release mechanism of the addresses used for
the Vlan allocation.
There are no more problems from versions 3.17 for OmniPCX Enterprise R6.2 and 3.60.72 for
OmniPCX Enterprise R7.0.
4. CONFIGURATION GUIDE
4.1. Terminal configuration

To implement the AVA feature, the IP Phone must be configured in "dynamic" mode or "dynamic
Alcatel" mode. In "dynamic Alcatel" mode the IP Phone will ignore DHCP responses from third party
DHCP servers only for the first VLAN request (except if the external DHCP server is set up to allocate
Vlan), it means that even if "dynamic Alcatel" is set up on the IP Phone, it can obtain its definitive IP
address from a third party DHCP server.
To use the AVA feature, the IP Phone must use the "Tagged VLAN" option set to OFF in the IP
configuration menu.
4.2. OmniPCX Enterprise configuration

Using mgr or the OmniVista 4760 management tool, the AVA feature must be configured in the
DHCP configuration option.
To deliver a VLAN Id to the IP Phones, an IP range on the OmniPCX Enterprise must be created for
the native VLAN (from which the VLAN request will come from). This IP range must fit the IP network
of the native VLAN.
In the DHCP configuration/All sub network menu, create (if it does not exist) an IP range
with the following options (this IP range must fit the IP network (network and mask) from which the
DHCP VLAN requests will come from):
Specify the VLAN id to give to the IP Phone ("VLAN ID" option).
Ed. 03 / 06 November 2006 11 TC0601

OmniPCX Enterprise
RESTRICTIONS
Specify an IP address to be used during the VLAN attribution process ("VLAN address"). This
address is given to each IP Phone requesting a VLAN ID for RFC compatibility purposes but is
not used by the IP Phone. This address must be a free and valid address in the IP
subnetwork.
Note
Do not forget, if it's not already the case, to enable DHCP Server: in the DHCP Configuration set
the Configuration option to DHCP Server.
CAUTION
If OmniPCX Enterprise IP security is on (only declared Trusted hosts are authorized to access the
OmniPCX Enterprise), every router network IP address from which a DHCP request comes from, must
be declared in the "Trusted Hosts".

4.5. Example of Alcatel router switch configuration (with Vlan Mobility)

(In reference to the figure 1 regarding the IP addresses and Vlan Id).
In this case, we use an explicit Vlan (Vlan 33 ) which is used only for allocating the Vlan Id for AVA
and is not used by the other data equipment.
This mechanism allows to allocate different non tagged Vlan to IP Phones according to there Mac-
Address and thus avoid allocating tagged Vlan from the data Vlan. This design allows the voice Vlan
to be completely separated from the data architecture contrary to the other switches of the market.
