In a safe network, you can configure the voice VLANs to operate in normal mode to reduce the system

resource consumption in source MAC address checking.

TIP:

H3C recommends not transmitting both voice traffic and non-voice traffic in a voice VLAN. If you must
transmit different traffic in a voice VLAN, make sure the voice VLAN security mode is disabled.

Voice VLAN

mode

Packet type

Packet processing

Normal

Untagged packets or
packets with the voice

VLAN tags

The port does not examine the source MAC addresses of
incoming packets. Both voice traffic and non-voice traffic can

be transmitted in the voice VLAN.

Packets with other VLAN
tags

Forwarded or dropped depending on whether the port allows
packets from these VLANs to pass through.

Security

Untagged packets or
packets with the voice
VLAN tags

If the source MAC address of a packet matches an OUI
address on the device, the packet is forwarded in the voice

VLAN.

If the source MAC address of a packet does not match an

OUI address on the device, the packet is dropped.

Packets with other VLAN
tags

Forwarded or dropped depending on whether the port allows
packets from these VLANs to pass through.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure a voice VLAN, complete the following tasks:

Create a VLAN.

Determine the QoS priority settings for voice VLAN traffic.

Determine the voice VLAN assignment mode.

Configuring the QoS priority settings for voice traffic

The QoS priority settings carried in voice traffic include the CoS and DSCP values. You can configure the

device to modify the QoS priority settings for voice traffic.
Before you configure the QoS priority settings for voice traffic on a port, make sure the voice VLAN
feature is disabled on it.
To configure the QoS priority settings for voice traffic:
