SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) is a voice priority mechanism for WLANs.
SVP is an open, straightforward QoS approach that has been adopted by
most leading vendors of WLAN APs. SVP favors isochronous voice packets
over asynchronous data packets when contending for the wireless medium
and when transmitting packets onto the wired LAN.

The following items are displayed on this page:
SVP Status — Enables/disables SVP on the access point.
◆
VLANs (virtual local area networks) are turned off by default when first
installing the access point. If turned on they will automatically tag any
packets received by the LAN port before sending them on to the relevant
VAP (virtual access point).
The access point can employ VLAN tagging support to control access to
network resources and increase security. VLANs separate traffic passing
between the access point, associated clients, and the wired network. There
can be a default VLAN for each VAP (Virtual Access Point) interface, and a
management VLAN for the access point.
Note the following points about the access point's VLAN support:
The management VLAN is for managing the access point through
◆
remote management tools, such as the web interface, SSH, SNMP, or
Telnet. The access point only accepts management traffic that is tagged
with the specified management VLAN ID.
All wireless clients associated to the access point are assigned to a
◆
VLAN. Wireless clients are assigned to the default VLAN for the VAP
interface with which they are associated. The access point only allows
traffic tagged with default VLAN IDs to access clients associated on
each VAP interface.
