Configuring Cisco IP Phone Voice Traffic
You can configure a port connected to the Cisco IP Phone to send CDP packets to the phone to configure
the way in which the phone sends voice traffic. The p hone can car ry v oice traf f ic in IEEE 802. 1Q frames
for a specified voice VLAN with a Layer 2 CoS value. It can use IEEE 802.1p priority tagging to give
voice traffic a higher priority and forward all voice traffic through the native (access) VLAN. The Cisco
IP Phone can also send untagged voice traffic or use its own configuration to send voice traffic in the
access VLAN. In all configurations, the voice traffic carries a Layer 3 IP precedence value (the default
is 5).
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure voice traffic on a port:
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 interface interface-id Specify the interface connected to the phone, and ent er i nte rface
configuration mode.
Step3 mls qos trust cos Configure the interface to classify incoming traffic packets by using the
packet CoS value. For untagged packets, the port default CoS value is used.
Note Before configuring the port trust state, you must first globally enable
QoS by using the mls qos global configuration command.
Step4 switchport voice {detect
cisco-phone [full-duplex] | vlan
{vlan-id | dot1p | none | untagged}}
Configure how the Cisco IP Phone carries voice traffic:
•detect—Configure the interface to detect and recognize a Cisco IP
phone.
•cisco-phone—When you initially implement the switchport voice detect
command, this is the only allowed option. The default is no switchport
voice detect cisco-phone [full-duplex].
•full-duplex—(Optional) Configure the switch to only accept a
full-duplex Cisco IP phone.
•vlan-id—Configure the phone to forward all voice traffic through the
specified VLAN. By default, the Cisco IP Phone forwards the voice
traffic with an IEEE 802.1Q priority of 5. Valid VLAN IDs are 1 to
4094.
•dot1p—Configure the phone to use IEEE 802.1p priority tagging fo r
voice traffic and to use the default native VLAN (VLAN 0) to carry all
traffic. By default, the Cisco IP Phone forwards the voice traf f ic wit h an
IEEE 802.1p priority of 5.
•none—Allow the phone to use its own configuration to send untagged
voice traffic.
•untagged—Configure the phone to send untagged voice traffic.
Step5 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Verify your QoS and voice VLAN entries.
Step7 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
