Hi
I have seen lots of examples of ip phone ports set up like this..
interface FastEthernet0/4
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 150
switchport mode trunk
switchport voice vlan 200
spanning-tree portfast
end
and this is kind of what I expected, whan having no experience in VOIP,
assumed that an ip phone would have to trunk if it was also handling a PC in
a different VLAN.
But when I read the "Configuring Voice VLAN" section of the IOS docco, I
don't recall it making references to this need, and in fact CDP is used to
handle the phone.
Thus is this perfectly valid?
interface FastEthernet0/4
switchport access vlan 150
switchport voice vlan 200
spanning-tree portfast
end
I occasionally get the phones obtaining a DHCP address from VLAN 150, rather
than 200. Would this be some breakdown in the CDP negotiation between
phone->switch?
Anybody seen this before?
