The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7931G has an internal Ethernet switch, enabling
forwarding of packets to the phone, and to the access port and the network port on
the back of the phone.
If a computer is connected to the access port, the computer and the phone share
the same physical link to the switch and share the same port on the switch. This
shared physical link has the following implications for the VLAN configuration
on the network:
The current VLANs might be configured on an IP subnet basis. However,
additional IP address might not be available to assign the phone to the same
subnet as other devices connect to the same port.
Data traffic present on the data/native VLAN may reduce the quality of
Voice-over-IP traffic.
Network security may indicate a need to isolate the VLAN voice traffic from
the VLAN data traffic.
