Unless Avaya has recently changed the code on the phone, you will need to
make sure the config file that gets pulled also has the Voice VLAN set.

Its been 6 months or so since I did it, but I believe we were using 7960's
for the phones, and they wouldn't work without configuring the Voice VLAN on
the phone, as well as the tftp config file ( I don't recall the name of the
file ).

IIRC the voice VLAN config on the switch is just used for CDP, so you
shouldn't need to add it if your not going to be using Cisco phones.

Subject: OT:Avaya /Cisco Question

Hi everyone, i was looking for a little OT help. I am connecting Avaya
Handsets to Cisco 3750 switch. I know that when you configure Voice-vlan,
cisco phones and switches use CDP to negotiate. SO in the case of
Avaya,there is no CDP, it must be configured on the handset. So do i still
need Voice-vlan command on my switch? Any input would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
