I am about to install a new VOIP system at a client that has the following situation:
1. Internet access (only) from cable modem; current connected to WAN1 of RV082. LAN port on RV082 is connected a a 48 port POE Series 300 switch.
2. New VOIP service will come in via a new T1 terminated in the carrier's Cisco router ... customer interface is router's Ethernet port. SIP protocol will be used to communicate with VOIP application running on Windows Server. Internet bandwidth is also available from this T1, but will only be used as a fallback route. "Load Balancing" on the RV082 will ~not~ be configured.
3. Currently, DHCP is running on Windows Server.
4. There are 12 desktop PC's and 15 Cisco SPA504 and 525 phones connected to the Series 300 switch. Phones may or may not have PC connected to their network switch port.
5. Goal is to use separate VLAN's for voice and data. Data connection will be from cable modem bandwidth.
I've only started reading up on the Series 300 switch today, and need to understand more about its built in capacity to recognize voice devices. So it will create its own voice VLAN on its own and give it priority over data?
I am quite confident that separate VLAN's and proper routing can be configured, however, I am somewhat at a loss on where to begin. What resources are available from Cisco to help me? The switches and router are new, and I have the serial numbers if needed to activate access to Support.
Thanks for any tips!
