Configuring Voice VLANs

The switch allows you to specify a Voice VLAN for the network and set a CoS priority
for the VoIP traffic. VoIP traffic can be detected on switch ports by using the source
MAC address of packets, or by using LLDP (IEEE 802.1AB) to discover connected
VoIP devices. When VoIP traffic is detected on a configured port, the switch
automatically assigns the port to the Voice VLAN. Alternatively, switch ports can be
manually configured.

Command Usage

• When IP telephony is deployed in an enterprise network, it is recommended

to isolate the Voice over IP (VoIP) network traffic from other data traffic. Traffic
isolation helps prevent excessive packet delays, packet loss, and jitter, which
results in higher voice quality. This is best achieved by assigning all VoIP
traffic to a single VLAN.

• VoIP traffic can be detected on switch ports by using the source MAC address

of packets, or by using LLDP (IEEE 802.1AB) to discover connected VoIP
