Configuring VLAN Settings
Configuring VLAN Settings
Cisco Small Business SPA300 Series, SPA500 Series, and WIP310 IP Phone Administration Guide
If you use a VLAN, your IP phone voice packets are tagged with the VLAN ID. (This
section does not apply to the Cisco WIP310.)
Configuring Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
CDP is negotiation-based and determines which VLAN the IP phone resides in. If
you are using a Cisco switch, Cisco discovery protocol (CDP) is available and
enabled by default. CDP:
•
Obtains the protocol addresses of neighboring devices and discovers the
platform of those devices.
•
Shows information about the interfaces your router uses.
•
Is media and protocol-independent.
If you are using a VLAN without CDP, you must enter a VLAN ID for the IP phone.
Configuring LLDP-MED
The
Cisco SPA300 Series and
Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED) for deployment with
Cisco or other third-party network connectivity devices that use a Layer 2 auto-
discovery mechanism. Implementation of LLDP-MED is done in accordance with
IEEE 802. 1 AB (LLDP) Specification of May 2005, and ANSI TIA-1057 of April 2006.
Cisco SPA IP phones operate as LLDP-MED Media End Point Class III devices with
direct LLDP-MED links to Network Connectivity Devices, according to the Media
Endpoint Discovery Reference Model and Definition (ANSI TIA-1057 Section 6).
Cisco SPA IP phones support only the following limited set of TLVs as LLDP-MED
Media Endpoint device class III:
•
Chassis ID TLV
•
Port ID TLV
•
Time to live TLV
•
Port Description TLV
•
System Name TLV
•
System Capabilities TLV
