Configure Auto-VoIP
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) enables telephone calls over a data network. Because
voice traffic is typically more time-sensitive than data traffic, the Auto-VoIP feature helps
provide a classification mechanism for voice packets so that they can be prioritized above
data packets in order to provide better Quality of Service (QoS). With the Auto-VoIP feature,
voice prioritization is provided based on the SIP call-control protocol or OUI bits.
Configure the Auto-VoIP global and protocol-based port
settings
To prioritize time-sensitive voice traffic over data traffic, protocol-based Auto-VoIP checks for
packets carrying the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) VoIP protocol.
VoIP frames that are received on ports that for which the Auto-VoIP feature is enabled are
marked with the specified CoS traffic class value.
To configure the Auto-VoIP global and protocol-based port settings:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
