Hi Emma,

I do know that Cisco's voice vlan feature is a little funky, but it's a
long time since I've looked at how Netdisco handles it. Doesn't surprise
me that something isn't right (tho if anyone with similar config reads
this and has different output in ND2 - please pipe up, otherwise I
assume what Emma reports is standard behaviour).

Netdisco appears to only
show the data vlan when you look at a switch port vlan membership.
Is
there a known way to get it to show the voice vlan in addition under
VLAN membership?  It does mention the vlan if connected nodes is
selected, you see a phone symbol, its MAC/IP address and in brackets
'on vlan xxx' where xxx is the voice vlan.
So the data comes from two places, which might explain the difference.
Associated with the Node is a VLAN that is stored when we do per-VLAN
MAC address table retrieval. With the Device Port is associated a set of
tagged VLANs and this seems to be missing the voice VLAN - but I suspect
the device isn't actually reporting it in the place we're looking.

There's a special table for the voice VLANs, which SNMP::Info (inside
Netdisco) supports: vmVoiceVlanId. What I guess the Cisco device class
code should do is merge this with the Device Port VLAN table to get the
complete picture.

Emma, please can you post the output of this command on one of the
devices where you see the issue:

~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do show -d <IP-of-device> -e i_voice_vlan

Everyone else - please squeak if you think it's a really bad idea to
merge vmVoiceVlanId with vlanTrunkPortVlansEnabled* (looks like a bunch
of other things are already merged on Cisco anyway, such as dynamic
VLANs). I reckon most network engineers would think of the voice VLAN as
a tagged VLAN and expect to see it in the VLAN Membership column.

Our normal config is to have on the end user ports:
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 10
switchport voice vlan 20

ND2 (2.031000 with SNMP::Info 3.18) shows this when I look at an end user port:

If you look at the MAC table, the phones initially come up on Vlan10, then get the voice vlan via CDP and switch to Vlan20, hence why you see the same MAC on both VLANs.

This is on a 3560X running 15.0(2)SE4 code, we see the same behavior on our 3560Gs and 4500E's as well, all running some variant of 15.X code.

Depends on what switch she has and the mibs I'm sure.

Emma, what type of switch is it?

We are using Cisco switches with Avaya IP Phones. Voice VLAN is 100. Here is how it shows in ND2:




The nodes are both Avaya IP phones (not shown as such - would be nice if they were!) and the VLAN Membership column does not show VLAN 100 (it would be nice if it did). Nodes (phones) are listed correctly as being on VLAN 100:

So in our case, Cisco-Avaya, Emma's report is accurate. (Only that in our case, no phone symbol is displayed...)

All our phones (Avaya models 96xx and 16xx) have MAC addresses starting with: 00:1b:4f:

To this point only, it's on the TODO list:

https://sourceforge.net/p/netdisco/netdisco2/110/

So it would help me to see the output of these on one of your Cisco switches:

~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do show -d <IP-of-device> -e c_cap
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do show -d <IP-of-device> -e c_platform

oliver.
