Hi
My question is the following:

If I connect the PC directly to a switch port configured as voice/data.
Will it be able to get an IP address from the data VLAN?
Or it should be connected behind an IPPhone or i must configure the port as belonging to the data VLAN only?
 
If you have a switch port configured for Voice and data when you plug the PC behind it, it will be on the data VLAN.

If you have a ip phone it will send CDP packets to the switch to let it know that it is a phone and put it on the voice vlan. Hope this helps
