• The Voice VLAN cannot be Smartport enabled.
• The Voice VLAN QoS decision has priority over any other QoS decision,
except for the Policy decision.
• A new VLAN ID can be configured for the Voice VLAN only if the current
Voice VLAN does not have candidate ports.
• The interface VLAN of a candidate port must be in General or Trunk mode.
• The Voice VLAN QoS is applied to candidate ports that have joined the
Voice VLAN, and to static ports.
• The voice flow is accepted if the MAC address can be learned by the
Forwarding Database (FDB). (If there is no free space in FDB, no action
occurs).
Voice VLAN Workflows
The device default configuration on Auto Voice VLAN, Auto Smartports, CDP, and
LLDP cover most common voice deployment scenarios. This section describes
how to deploy voice VLAN when the default configuration does not apply.
Workflow1: To configure Auto Voice VLAN:
STEP 1 Open the VLAN Management > Voice VLAN > Properties page.
STEP 2 Select the Voice VLAN ID. It cannot be set to VLAN ID 1 (this step is not required for
dynamic Voice VLAN).
STEP 3 Set Dynamic Voice VLAN to Enable Auto Voice VLAN.
STEP 4 Select the Auto Voice VLAN Activation method.
NOTE If the device is currently in Telephony OUI mode, you must disable it
before you can configure Auto Voice Vlan
STEP 5 Click Apply.
STEP 6 Configure Smartports as described in the Common Smartport Tasks section.
STEP 7 Configure LLDP/CDP as described in the Configuring LLDP and Configuring
CDP sections, respectively.
STEP 8 Enable the Smartport feature on the relevant ports using the Smartport > Interface
Settings page.
