Cisco 2960S FPS-L PoE switch with Avaya 9811g VOIP setup

[Syed Azam]

Hello,

I am connecting a setup for data/voice connecting Catalyst 2960S-FPS-L PoE switch with Avaya 9811g series VOIP phone. As per my knowledge cisco switch works well with Cisco phone as it has got some builtin "Macros" and Intelligent PoE recognition when we connect device getting the details of another device through CDP. I understand I have to create data and voice vlan with QOS then enable trunking on the interface to other switch that is also 2960. Little confuse if is there any compatibility issues with Switch and Avaya phone regarding protocol/data/voice...?

Do I have to do PoE config for each port on the each interface?

any help or detail config will help.

Thanks in advance.

PoE, by default, is enabled.

Just make sure the Avaya unit support CDP.

They don't. The replacement is LLDP

yeah, Phone support LLDP, Switch support CDP. So hopefully LLDP will work well CDP on layer two.

Thanks will get back once I am done with config...

Hi I am back after good research. created two vlan data and voice with trunk on interface1/0/48 given below config..

connection b/w 2960s FPS Switch and Avaya 9611g IP Phone.

lldp/cdp is enable on switch

So I created this config if some one can take a look .

expert advise if something wrong?..

I am only concern with Voice and PoE as voice is my priority. do i have to map something for voice quality?

also if i create another Trunk port one allow voice other allow data both cable will go to switch will that be issue?
