hi daniel,

yr configs shud look like this.....and u havent missed the boat!

>mls qos
>!
>interface fastethernet 0/10
>switchport access vlan 10
>switchport voice vlan 100
>mls qos trust cos

the only change is that there is no "switchport mode access" as this command
would force the port into access mode and it wudnt form a 802.1q trunk with
the IP Phone.This config requires the port to be in the default mode i.e
"Dynamic,Desirable" so the IP Phone can form the trunk as and when
required.........and the CoS value wud then be carried thru.

This is how i understand it.......ppl correct me if i am wrong....

cheers,

sumit.
