Hi everyone,
I'm gonna need some help with this one, so please be patient as I'm a beginner with Cisco. I have 6 cisco switches already on my network and I just got a 2960S PoE switch that I need to enable for VoIP. The voice vendor is coming in to setup our phone system for VoIP and I need to enable this new 2960S 48 port switch for the VoIP phones, I don't know how to do that, or other taskes needed for this project.

I was told that I need to uplink the new 2960S with the Catalysy 4507R using an ethernet cable and to "trunk the ports" and enable the 2960S as a VTP client - ok great - how?

I was told I also need to use the switch port voice VLAN command for the new VLAN - again, great - but how?

I actually was able to telnet into the switch and I gave it an IP and I created a new vlan but thats all. Where do I go from here? Please help. We are using non Cisco IP phones.
Thanks.

Consultant.

that difficult, huh?

Not really difficult, but if you do something wrong you can bring down the entire network (especially with the VTP configuration). If you don't know what you are doing get someone in that does. Especially if you are on a deadline to have it done before the VoIP guy comes in.
