You can resolve these issues by isolating the voice traffic onto a separate VLAN.
The switch port that the phone is connected to would be configured to have
separate VLANs for carrying:
Voice traffic to and from the IP phone (auxiliary VLAN, on the Cisco Catalyst
6000 series, for example)
Data traffic to and from the PC connected to the switch through the access
port of the IP phone (native VLAN)
Isolating the phones on a separate, auxiliary VLAN improves the quality of the
voice traffic and allows a large number of phones to be added to an existing
network where there are not enough IP addresses for each phone.
For more information, refer to the documentation included with a Cisco switch.
