Security mode and normal mode of voice VLANs
Depending on their inbound packet filtering mechanisms, voice VLAN-enabled port can operate in the
following modes:
Normal mode: In this mode, voice VLAN-enabled ports receive packets carrying the voice VLAN tag
and forward packets in the voice VLAN without checking their source MAC addresses against the OUI
addresses configured for the device. If the PVID of the port is the voice VLAN and the port works in
manual VLAN assignment mode, the port forwards all received untagged packets in the voice VLAN.
In normal mode, the voice VLANs are vulnerable to traffic attacks. Vicious users may forge a large
amount of voice packets and send them to the device to consume the voice VLAN bandwidth, affecting
normal voice communication.
Security mode: In this mode, only voice packets whose source MAC addresses match the recognizable
OUI addresses can pass through the voice VLAN-enabled inbound port, but all other packets are
dropped.
In a safe network, you can configure the voice VLANs to operate in normal mode, reducing the consumption
of system resources due to source MAC addresses checking.
HP does not recommend you transmit both voice traffic and non-voice traffic in a voice VLAN. If you have
to, ensure that the voice VLAN security mode is disabled.

How a voice VLAN-enable port processes packets in security/normal mode
Voice VLAN mode
Packet type
Packet processing mode
Security mode
Untagged packets
If the source MAC address of a packet matches an
OUI address configured for the device, it is
forwarded in the voice VLAN; otherwise, it is
dropped.
Packets carrying the voice
VLAN tag
Packets carrying other tags
Forwarded or dropped depending on whether the
port allows packets of these VLANs to pass through
Normal mode
Untagged packets
The port does not check the source MAC addresses
of inbound packets. In this way, both voice traffic
and non-voice traffic can be transmitted in the voice
VLAN.
Packets carrying the voice
VLAN tag
Packets carrying other tags
Forwarded or dropped depending on whether the
port allows packets of these VLANs to pass through
Configuring the voice VLAN
Configuration task list
Before configuring the voice VLAN feature, you must create the corresponding VLAN and configure the link
type of each port to be assigned to the VLAN. VLAN 1 is the default VLAN, and you cannot create it or
configure it as a voice VLAN. For more information about port link types, see the chapter “Port management
configuration”.
