But, in
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/c3550/12225sec/3550scg/swvoip.htm
Says:

The voice VLAN feature enables access ports to carry IP voice traffic
from an IP phone. The switch can connect to a Cisco 7960 IP Phone and
carry IP voice traffic. Because the sound quality of an IP phone call
can deteriorate if the data is unevenly sent, the switch supports
quality of service (QoS) based on IEEE 802.1p class of service (CoS).

Also in
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat3750m/12114ax/3750mscg/swqos.htm
Explains this Magical Auto-Qos method for Trusting and IPPhone, IMHO (do
not trust me), I think that this Cisco-Phone is a template coded for you..

I'm just guessing here for the information that you can find in
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat4000/12_1_20/cmdref/ch2a_ins.htm,
here you can find that: cisco-phone: Connects the interface to a Cisco
IP phone and automatically configures QoS for VoIP. The CoS labels of
incoming packets are trusted only when the telephone is detected <- (off
course this is done via CDPv2)

HTH
