Processor Ethernet on duplex servers works effectively only when the branch gateways and IP telephones are on the current release of the firmware.
Use the following IP telephone models to ensure optimal system performance when you use Processor Ethernet on duplex servers:
J129, J139, J159, J179, and J189.
9608G, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G.
1608, and 1616.
9610, 9620, 9630, 9640, and 9650 telephones with firmware 3.0 or later. Any later 96xx and 96x1 models that support Time to Service (TTS) work optimally.
4601+, 4602SW+, 4610SW, 4620SW, 4621SW, 4622SW, and 4625SW Broadcom telephones with firmware R 2.9 SP1 or later. 46xx telephones are supported if the 46xx telephones are not in the same subnetwork as the servers.
All other IP telephone models must reregister if a server interchange occurs. The 46xx telephones reregister if the telephones are in the same subnetwork as the servers.
