This document describes the configuration steps required on a LANCOM managed switch of the GS-23xx series in order to configure a
voice VLAN and automatically assign it to an IP telephone by means of OUI address.
Voice VLAN. If a VoIP telephone is connected to the switch, the switch recognizes the telephone using the manufacturer ID (OUI address) and activates the Voice VLAN on the switch port. As the Voice VLAN is tagged on this port (tagging mode Hybrid), tagging has to be activated on the VoIP telephone. It is also possible to connect additional network devices to this port, which are to communicate in another VLAN. For this purpose there is a separate port on many VoIP telephones a PC can be connected to for example. This can save an additional switch, for example.
Info
An OUIaddress (Organizationally Unique Identifier)consists of the first 24 bits of a MAC address. This is the manufacturer ID assigned by the IEEE. For LANCOM devices the OUI 00 is 00:A0:57.
