IP Phone Deployment Best practice is to put phones on their own VLAN, called “Voice VLAN” - Traffic separation so phones don’t have to hear broadcast from departmental VLANs - IP Phones on private campus routed IPv4 space - DHCP options won’t conflict Use Iris to enable/disable voice VLAN
Dual-Mode Ports - Department network (untagged) - Voice network (tagged).
