hi

i have already read that pdf and many other but the model i use ( cisco WS-C3548-XL) doesnt support mls qos command or voice vlan without trunking the ports... i can see only switchport priority ....command for QoS.

is it the IOS version or the device ?

Unfortunately the 3500XL (& 2900XL) run IOS 12.0 and must be configured differently from the current range of switches (2950 and up) with regards to Voice VLANs. To enable Voice VLANs like you would on access ports on a 2950 or later you must configure the ports on the 3500XL & 2900XL as trunks. QoS is also not configurable on this platform - the 3524XL-PWR and 3548XL support QoS but it cannot be configured, all other 2900XL & 3500XL don't support QoS.

!!!!!2950 or later typical config

interface FastEthernet0/1

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 10

switchport voice vlan 100

!

!!!!!3500XL/2900XL Voice VLAN Access port

interface FastEthernet0/1

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

switchport trunk native vlan 10

switchport voice vlan 100

switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,100,1002-1005

!

In both examples above the Access VLAN is 10 and the Voice (Tagged) VLAN is 100, note the configuration differences on the XL series to achieve the same functionality.

The 3548XL has been EOS since July 2002, and was EOL July 2007. The recommended replacement products are now also EOS (2950 & 3550) so you should really look at replacing these with 3560/3750 series switches.
