Hello Guys -
I've been tasked with helping a client implement VOIP at a new location they are building. I have a couple of questions regarding the equipment that needs to be in place for this implementation.
1.) Is it advisable to put IP phones on a different switch and the PC's on a different switch? Or can they be on the same switch with phones on one VLAN and PC's on another VLAN?
2.) Will the QoS be configured on the switch which hosts those multiple VLAN's?
Here is how I am thinking of laying out the equipment.
1.) Use a 24 port POE switch. Create two VLAN's on it, one for voice and one for data.
2.) Configure DHCP on Fast Ethernet 0/0 & 0/1 interfaces on a Cisco 1841 router for assigning addresses to phones and PC's. Interface FE 0/0 will be on data VLAN and interface FE 0/1 will be on voice VLAN.
3.) configure a trunk port on the switch to pass traffic from both VLAN's
Do you guys think this will work? I would appreciate your thoughts and feedback.
