Configuring Auto VoIP

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) allows you to make telephone calls using a computer network over a
data network like the Internet. With the increased prominence of delay-sensitive applications (voice, video,
and other multimedia applications) deployed in networks today, proper QoS configuration will ensure
high-quality application performance. The Auto VoIP feature is intended to provide an easy classification
mechanism for voice packets so that they can be prioritized above data packets in order to provide
better QoS.
The Auto-VoIP feature explicitly matches VoIP streams in Ethernet switches and provides them with a better
class of service than ordinary traffic. If you enable the Auto-VoIP feature on an interface, the interface scans
incoming traffic for the following call-control protocols:
• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
• H.323
• Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP)
When a call-control protocol is detected the switch assigns the traffic in that session to the highest CoS
queue, which is generally used for time-sensitive traffic.

Auto VoIP Global Configuration

Use the Auto VoIP Global Configuration page to configure the VLAN ID for the Auto VoIP VLAN or to reset the
current Auto VoIP VLAN ID to the default value. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) enables telephone calls
over a data network. Because voice traffic is typically more time-sensitive than data traffic, the Auto VoIP
feature helps provide a classification mechanism for voice packets so that they can be prioritized above data
packets in order to provide better Quality of Service (QoS). With the Auto VoIP feature, voice prioritization is
provided based on call-control protocols (SIP, SCCP, H.323) and/or OUI bits. When the device identifies voice
traffic, it is placed in the VLAN specified on this page. The Auto VoIP feature does not rely on LLDP-MED
support in connected devices.

Use the buttons to perform the following tasks:
• If you change the Auto VoIP VLAN field, click Submit to apply the change.
• To reset the VLAN to the default Auto VoIP VLAN, click Reset, and confirm the action.
• Click Refresh to refresh the page with the most current data from the switch.
To retain the changes across the switch's next power cycle, click System > Configuration Storage > Save.
