Hi, we've setup a new Avaya IP403 phone system to replace the old Panasonic.
We've been advised that if we ever want to move from digital to VoIp then we will need to setup a VLAN to have the two different types of traffic(voice vs data) on a separate (logical?) subnet.
I can see the reasoning(eg delays on VoIP traffic not good for conversations)
Can a 2950 separate/differntiate between traffic 'types' as I can't see the point of having a VLAN which is differentiated by MAC address etc as a solution to this.
Any tips on where I should start--I've already got a few good white papers from Cisco on this. A book would be handy or just advice from people who've done something similar.
Looking at a user environment of 50 users.
TIA
