Port Configuration With IP Phone and PC On Same Port

FoxtrotRomeo

Hello all,

We just installed a hosted VOIP system using Cisco 7900 series IP phones.  We are having a strange issue with a few computers where they pull DHCP information from our VOIP provider's DHCP server on the Internet and not our LAN DHCP server. 

The switchports areconfigured as:

switchport mode access

My rationale behind this is that the phones would use CDP to get their VLAN info from the providers Cisco router and the PCs would just ride on the default VLAN.  But this is not the case.  Computers randomly keep getting DHCP info from the provider's router.  Do I have to use voice vlan x and make the switchports trunks?

Hi All

 

Do you need spanning-tree portfast configured for such a port?

And if so why?

 

Thanks
