ackground: Voice VLAN is a feature that separates voice and data traffic on a network, ensuring optimal performance for voice communication. This is particularly important for VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) systems. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to configure Voice VLAN on a Nebula switch.

Topology and Scenario: We will configure Voice VLAN on a Nebula switch within a business environment that uses VoIP phones. The goal is to ensure that voice traffic is prioritized and segregated from data traffic for better call quality.

Steps:

  1. Log in to the Nebula control center using your account credentials.
  2. Navigate to Switch > Configure > Switch settings.
  3. Scroll down and find Voice VLAN, start to assign the VLAN ID also the OUI of the IP phone MAC vendor.

  1. Next, go to Switch > Configure > Switch ports.
  2. Change the port type to Access and change the VLAN type to "Voice VLAN".

Note: Ensure that the connected VoIP phones are configured to tag their traffic with the Voice VLAN ID. This setting is typically found in the phone's network configuration.

By following these steps, you can successfully configure Voice VLAN on your Nebula switch, enhancing the performance and quality of your VoIP communications.
