Prestige 2002 Series User’s Guide

Your Prestige can add IEEE 802.1Q VLAN ID tags to voice frames that it sends to the network. This allows the Prestige to communicate with a SIP server that is a member of the same VLAN group. Some ISPs use the VLAN tag to identify voice traffic and give it priority over other traffic.
