VLAN Management Voice VLAN 12 Unlike Telephony OUI mode that detects voice devices based on telephony OUI, Auto Voice VLAN mode depends on Auto Smartport to dynamically add the ports to the voice VLAN. Auto Smartport, if enabled, adds a port to the voice VLAN if it detects an attaching device to the port that advertises itself as a phone or media end points through CDP and/or LLDP-MED. Voice End-Points To have a voice VLAN work properly, the voice devices, such as Cisco phones and VoIP endpoints, must be assigned to the voice VLAN where it sends and receives its voice traffic. Some of the possible scenarios are as follows: • A phone/endpoint may be statically configured with the voice VLAN. • A phone/endpoint may obtain the voice VLAN in the boot file it downloads from a TFTP server. A DHCP server may specify the boot file and the TFTP server when it assigns an IP address to the phone. • A phone/endpoint may obtain the voice VLAN information from CDP and LLDP-MED advertisements it receives from their neighbor voice systems and switches. The switch expects the attaching voice devices to send voice VLAN, tagged packets. On ports where the voice VLAN is also the native VLAN, voice VLAN untagged packets are possible. Auto Voice VLAN, Auto Smartports, CDP, and LLDP Defaults By factory defaults, CDP, LLDP, and LLDP-MED on the switch are enabled, auto Smartport mode is enabled, Basic QoS with trusted DSCP is enabled, and all ports are members of default VLAN 1, which is also the default Voice VLAN. In addition, Dynamic Voice VLAN mode is the default to Auto Voice VLAN with enabling based on trigger, and Auto Smartport is the default to be enabled depending on Auto Voice VLAN. Voice VLAN Triggers When the Dynamic Voice VLAN mode is Enable Auto Voice VLAN, Auto Voice VLAN becomes operational only if one or more triggers occur. Possible triggers are static voice VLAN configuration, voice VLAN information received in neighbor CDP advertisement, and voice VLAN information received in the Voice VLAN Discovery Protocol (VSDP). If desired, you can activate Auto Voice VLAN immediately without waiting for a trigger. Cisco Small Business 200 Series Smart Switch Administration Guide 168

VLAN Management
Voice VLAN
Cisco Small Business 200 Series Smart Switch Administration Guide
168
12
Unlike Telephony OUI mode that detects voice devices based on telephony
OUI, Auto Voice VLAN mode depends on Auto Smartport to dynamically
add the ports to the voice VLAN.
Auto Smartport, if enabled, adds a port to
the voice VLAN if it detects an attaching device to the port that advertises
itself as a phone or media end points through CDP and/or LLDP-MED.
Voice End-Points
To have a voice VLAN work properly, the voice devices, such as Cisco phones and
VoIP endpoints, must be assigned to the voice VLAN where it sends and receives
its voice traffic. Some of the possible scenarios are as follows:
A phone/endpoint may be statically configured with the voice VLAN.
A phone/endpoint may obtain the voice VLAN in the boot file it downloads
from a TFTP server. A DHCP server may specify the boot file and the TFTP
server when it assigns an IP address to the phone.
A phone/endpoint may obtain the voice VLAN information from CDP and
LLDP-MED advertisements it receives from their neighbor voice systems
and switches.
The switch expects the attaching voice devices to send voice VLAN, tagged
packets. On ports where the voice VLAN is also the native VLAN, voice VLAN
untagged packets are possible.
Auto Voice VLAN, Auto Smartports, CDP, and LLDP
Defaults
By factory defaults, CDP, LLDP, and LLDP-MED on the switch are enabled, auto
Smartport mode is enabled, Basic QoS with trusted DSCP is enabled, and all ports
are members of default VLAN 1, which is also the default Voice VLAN.
In addition, Dynamic Voice VLAN mode is the default to Auto Voice VLAN with
enabling based on trigger, and Auto Smartport is the default to be enabled
depending on Auto Voice VLAN.
Voice VLAN Triggers
When the Dynamic Voice VLAN mode is Enable Auto Voice VLAN, Auto Voice
VLAN becomes operational only if one or more triggers occur.
Possible triggers
are static voice VLAN configuration, voice VLAN information received in neighbor
CDP advertisement, and voice VLAN information received in the Voice VLAN
Discovery Protocol (VSDP). If desired, you can activate Auto Voice VLAN
immediately without waiting for a trigger.
