Use VLANS for Traffic Segmentation
34
ProSAFE Easy-Mount 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Web Managed Switch
The following are two operational modes for IP phones:
• IP phones that are configured with the VLAN mode enabled ensure that the phone uses
tagged packets for all communications.
• IP phones that are configured with the VLAN mode disabled ensure that the phone uses
untagged packets for all communications.
Select the Voice VLAN and Class of Service
A single VLAN can function as the voice VLAN. By default, VLAN 1 is the voice VLAN. If you
created other VLANs, you can select another VLAN as the voice VLAN.
To select the voice VLAN and Class of Service:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is
off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch Using a Web
Browser on page 6.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the password field.
The switch’s default password is password.
The Switch Information page displays.
5. Select VLAN > Voice VLAN > Properties.
The Voice VLAN Properties page displays.
6. In the Voice VLAN ID menu, select the voice VLAN.
By default, VLAN 1 is the voice VLAN.
7. In the Class of Service menu, select the Class of Service (CoS) tag that applies to traffic on
the voice VLAN.
The CoS tag is a value from 0 to 7 that must be reassigned for packets that are received
on the voice VLAN. The default value is 6.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
