Thanks for the reply. My final config was pretty close but the nortel
phones will mark the packets with DSCP 6 when 802.1q is turned off (which it
is in mine as well) so I just changed my auto qos to trust dscp instead of
cos.

Hello Rik,

I also had some problems with Ericson IP Phones integrating into the cisco
switch infrastructures.

But at the end of the day, this is what I resolved: Most of the 3rd Party IP
Phones don't have an "Intelligent Switch" in built capable of marking and
extending cos. It looks like they either have a hub or a normal switch
within the phones that gives the capability of connecting your PC into
IPPhone and then using a single link into your switch.

This was my fix: I configured auto-qos on the switch and then marked all the
traffic from the phones with our choice of cos values. You can do this with
the mls qos cos 5 and mls qos cos override commands.
