Cisco Small Business 200 Series Smart Switch Administration Guide
When Auto Smartport is enabled, depending on Auto Voice VLAN mode, Auto
Smartport is enabled when Auto Voice VLAN becomes operational. If desired, you
can make Auto Smartport independent of Auto Voice VLAN.
The default configuration list here applies to switches whose firmware version
supports Auto Voice VLAN out of the box. It also applies to unconfigured switches
that have been upgraded to the firmware version that supports Auto Voice VLAN.
The defaults and the voice VLAN triggers are designed to have no effect on any
installations without a voice VLAN and on switches that have already been
configured. You may manually disable and enable Auto Voice VLAN and/or Auto
Smartport to fit your deployment if needed.
Auto Voice VLAN
Auto Voice VLAN is responsible to maintain the voice VLAN, but depends on Auto
Smartport to maintain the voice VLAN port memberships. Auto Voice VLAN
performs the following functions when it is in operation:
•
It discovers voice VLAN information in CDP advertisements from directly
connected neighbor devices.
•
If multiple neighbor switches and/or routers, such as Cisco Unified
Communication (UC) devices, are advertising their voice VLAN, the voice
VLAN from the device with the lowest MAC address is used.
If connecting the switch to a Cisco UC device, you may need to
NOTE
configure the port on the UC device using the switchport voice vlan
command to ensure the UC device advertises its voice VLAN in CDP at the
port.
•
It synchronizes the voice VLAN-related parameters with other Auto Voice
VLAN-enabled switches, using Voice Service Discovery Protocol (VSDP).
The switch always configures itself with the voice VLAN from the highest
priority source it is aware of. The priority is based on the source type and
MAC address of the source providing the voice VLAN information. Source
type priority from high to low are static VLAN configuration, CDP
advertisement, and default configuration based on changed default VLAN,
and default voice VLAN. A numeric low MAC address is of higher priority
than a numeric high MAC address.
•
It maintains the voice VLAN until a new voice VLAN from a higher priority
source is discovered or until the Auto Voice VLAN is restarted by the user.
When restarted, the switch resets the voice VLAN to the default voice VLAN
and restarts the Auto Voice VLAN discovery.
