This requires the switch (and port) to have CDP enabled by the way." Can also be done with LLDP, should you have non-Cisco IP phones. I can vouch for 4500's and Avaya IP phones speaking LLDP to each other. -Geoff On Fri, Aug 28, 2009 at 5:43 PM, Peter Rathlev<pe...@rathlev.dk> wrote: > On Fri, 2009-08-28 at 15:20 -0700, Yuri Bank wrote: >> interface FastEthernet0/4 >> description phone >> switchport access vlan 77 >> switchport trunk native vlan 55 >> switchport mode access >> switchport voice vlan 66 >> >> In this configuration, data is placed on vlan 55?
