How to configure Voice VLAN to optimize the transmission of voice traffic on TP-Link Smart and Managed Switches

NC

To configure Voice VLAN on TP-Link Smart and Managed switches, follow these steps:

  1. Create Voice VLAN: First, create a new VLAN specifically for voice traffic. Assign a unique VLAN ID to the Voice VLAN.

  2. Enable Voice VLAN feature: Enable the Voice VLAN feature on the switch. This can usually be done through the web interface or through the command line interface (CLI).

  3. Configure Voice VLAN membership: Configure the ports that will be used for voice traffic to be members of the Voice VLAN. This can be done either by configuring the port to be an access port for the Voice VLAN or by configuring the port to be a trunk port and allowing only the Voice VLAN to pass through the port.

  4. Configure QoS settings: Configure Quality of Service (QoS) settings to prioritize voice traffic over other types of traffic. This can include setting a higher priority for voice traffic or limiting the bandwidth of other types of traffic.

  5. Configure Voice VLAN tagging: If your phones support VLAN tagging, configure them to tag their traffic with the appropriate VLAN ID.

  6. Configure the voice device settings: Finally, configure the settings on the voice devices (e.g., IP phones) to use the Voice VLAN. This can usually be done through the device's web interface or through a configuration file.

After completing these steps, your Voice VLAN should be up and running, and voice traffic should be prioritized over other types of traffic. Test the connectivity and quality of your voice traffic to ensure that it is working properly.
