Differences between the GS105 and GS108 models?
Hi, We use several 5- and 8-Port-Gigabit-Ethernet-Unmanaged-Switches (GS105 and GS108). Unfortunately, after an update of the telephone system, the telephones in the offices only work with the GS1...
We use several similar/identical Netgear access switches.
I have been testing them with this phone: Unify OpenScape Desk Phone CP400
At the moment I can narrow down the problem as follows:

Model: GS105v5
NETGEAR ProSAFE 8-Port Gigabit Switch
Model: GS108v3
Phone is NOT working with:
NETGEAR ProSAFE 8-Port Gigabit Switch
Model: GS108v4

Looking at https://wiki.unify.com/wiki/OpenScape_Desk_Phone_CP_FAQ does show a list of codes. As Atos isn't a new child in this industry, I kindly ask you to challenge your IPPBX (aka.
