Trouble with Computers connected through Phones on GS728TP
I have a site that has upgraded to fiber internet with hosted voice. The service provider has VLANS 10 (data) and 20 (voice) configured on their router. The computers at the site will be connecting back to the switch through the second port on the phones. I've managed to get VLAN 10 DHCP passed to the computers, but have been unsuccessful in getting the phones to pickup DHCP from VLAN20. Port 18 connects to the ISP's router and is tagged for both VLANS. I have one of the phones connected to port 20 and my laptop connected through the phone for testing. I have tried different comninations of tagged and untagged for port 20. Seems the only way to get VLAN 20 DHCP across the port is to set the VLID to 20, which results in the computer pulling its IP from VLAN20 DHCP as well. Any help is greatly appreciated.
- I figured it out. The ISP did not fully configure the phones. They should have specified the VLID in the device once I did this the traffic started passing properly

Hi Citizen0135,
Welcome to our community! :)
I would like to know the VLANs that will be used for data and voice? Do you mean VLAN 10 and 20 are for data VLAN? How about for the voice VLAN? Basically, if you wanted to pass the data traffic to your PC, you may just need to assign the PVID to their corresponding DHCP server.
Example:
VLAN 10 - Office 1
VLAN 20 - Office 2
VLAN 99 - Voice
VLAN membership:
VLAN 99 - Port 1 - T
VLAN 99 - Port 2 - T
VLAN 10 - Port 1 - U
VLAN 10 - Port 2 - U
PVID Configuration (where you wanted it to have a DHCP request for your PC):
Port 1 - PVID 10
Port 2 - PVID 20
On this setup, port 1 will receive an IP from DHCP server of VLAN 10 and port 2 will be receiving from VLAN 20 as it was assigned to their corresponding VLAN.
May the solution help you. :)
Regards,
