Configuring a port to operate in automatic voice
VLAN assignment mode
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you configure a port to operate in automatic voice VLAN assignment mode, follow these
restrictions and guidelines:
•
Do not configure a VLAN as both a voice VLAN and a protocol-based VLAN.
A voice VLAN in automatic mode on a hybrid port processes only tagged incoming voice
traffic.
A protocol-based VLAN on a hybrid port processes only untagged incoming packets. For
more information about protocol-based VLANs, see
•
As a best practice, do not use this mode with MSTP. In MSTP mode, if a port is blocked in the
MSTI of the target voice VLAN, the port drops the received packets instead of delivering them to
the CPU. As a result, the port will not be dynamically assigned to the voice VLAN.
•
As a best practice, do not use this mode with PVST. In PVST mode, if the target voice VLAN is
not permitted on a port, the port is placed in blocked state. The port drops the received packets
instead of delivering them to the CPU. As a result, the port will not be dynamically assigned to
the voice VLAN.
•
As a best practice, do not configure both dynamic MAC-based VLAN assignment and automatic
voice VLAN assignment mode on a port. They can have a negative impact on each other.
