Recommendation 2: Separate LAN synchronization communication
channels using port VLAN (Virtual LAN)
•
Separate the communication channels of CSs and other terminals/computers by using port VLAN to group
switches that the CS is connected to and switches on LAN synchronization communication channels
between CSs.
•
Use Panasonic-certified switches for the switches that the CSs are connected to and the switches on the
LAN synchronization communication channel between CSs.
•
When connecting 32 or more CSs, use gigabit switches for the switches that the CSs are connected to
and the switches on the LAN synchronization communication channel between CSs.

5.4 LAN Synchronization Diagnosis
This feature is used to check whether the planned location of each CS is suitable for actual communication.
Make sure that the CSs are temporarily installed at the locations calculated using the Site Planning Tool and
confirm that all CSs are in LAN synchronization.
Note
PBX registration is not necessary at this point.
Short-term Diagnosis
1.
Turn off DIP switches no. 4 and turn on DIP switch no. 8 for each CS.
2.
Connect each CS in turn to a nearby hub. If the hub does not support PoE (Power over Ethernet), connect
the CS to a power outlet using the AC adaptor.
