If i have 2 vlans setup on a 2650 and have this switch connected to another switch which is not vlan aware, what happens to vlan traffic when it reaches this other switch?

(vlan1 is untagged default vlan and vlan2 is a tagged voip vlan)

Thanks
 
Can you give us more info? Especially which VLAN's ports are connected to the non vlan aware switch? If you have it connected to the VLAN 1 untagged default VLAN, then the units should communicate.
 
If the frames sent to the non-vlan aware switch are untagged the non-vlan aware switch will treat them as normal and forward the frames based on source/destination mac addresses

Nice
