TP-Link T2500G-10MPS is a managed L2 switch with eight 10/100/1000Mbps PoE ports with 116W of total power. The switch is equipped with two SFP slots, allowing to connect the main board of the device with single or multi-mode fiber optic cable. It is especially recommended for units that want to use economical solutions that guarantee gigabit data transmission in their network structure. The switch can be used in a small office, but also at home.
TP-Link T2500G-10MPS switch has reliable and functional management mechanism in the second layer. The device is perfect for connecting with other switches and servers supporting gigabit network capacity. TP-Link T2500G-10MPS is also a device providing security mechanisms of our network, with functions such as: Storm Control, port protection, broadcast storm or DHCP Snooping, IP-MAC-Port. The switch also uses a mechanism called QoS, enabling better transmission of audio, video or data in the network.

Introduction
Voice traffic is usually more time sensitive and may be more affected by packet loss than data traffic. You can configure Voice VLAN to optimize the transmission of voice traffic. Voice VLAN can change the priority of 802.1p voice packets and transmit packets in the desired VLAN.
Network requirements
As shown in the figure below, two IP phones are connected to port 1/0/1 and port 1/0/2 of the switch. The PC is connected to port 1/0/3 of the switch. The switch is connected to the Internet through a router via port 1/0/4. IP phones transmit voice traffic while the computer transmits data traffic. Voice traffic requires higher priority than data traffic.
Configuration diagram
To implement this requirement, you can configure it as follows:
1) Create a VLAN 2 and add port 1/0/1, port 1/0/2 and port 1/0/4 to your VLAN.
2) Configure VLAN 2 as Voice VLAN and set the voice traffic priority to 7.
3) Switch on the Voice VLAN on ports 1/0/1 and 1/0/2.
Configuration steps
For the T2600G-28TS, the following sections describe the configuration procedure.
Step 1
Select the L2 FUNCTIONS> VLAN> 802.1Q VLAN> VLAN Configuration menu and click Add to load the next page. Create a VLAN 2 for voice traffic. Enter the name of the VLAN as Voice_VLAN . There is no need to add ports that are connected to IP phones. Just add the uplink port 1/0/4 to your VLAN 2, for example, set it here as an un-tagged port. Click Create .
Step 2
Select the QoS> Voice VLAN> Global Config menu to load the next page. Enable Voice VLAN globally. Set the VLAN ID to 2 and set the priority to 7 . Click Apply .
Step 3
Select the QoS> Voice VLAN> Config Port menu to load the next page. Enable Voice VLAN on ports 1/0/1 and 1/0/2. Click Apply .
Step 4
Select the QoS> Voice VLAN> OUI Config menu to load the next page. Check the OUI table. Make sure that the OUI address of the voice device is in this table. If the source MAC address of the packet matches the OUI address in the OUI list, the switch identifies the packet as a voice packet and processes it based on the voice VLAN configuration.
The console's asynchronous serial port allows devices to be connected to the management console.
Connect the console cable switch to the main computer.
Note: The switch is off.
Step 1 Open Hyper Terminal.
Choose Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Communications -> Hyper Terminal.
Step 2 Create a new connection (e.g. TPLINK) and press OK.
Step 3 Select the serial port that will be used to connect the console to the switch (e.g. COM1).
Step 4
Specify the properties of the COM1 port and press OK.
Bits for a second:
38400 for TL-SG3109, TL-SL3452, TL-SL3428;
9600 for TL-SG5426, TL-SL5428, TL-SL5428E.
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Alloy bits: 1
Flow control : None
Step 5 Turn the switch on and press the Enter button. The Hyper Terminal window will appear (see below).
It is possible to configure the switch via the console port.
WARNING:
Windows 7 and Vista do not have Hyper Terminal. Its module can be copied from the XP system: Copy hypertrm.dll and hypertrm.exe files from the computer on which the XP system is installed and upload them to the computer with Win 7 or Vista. Run hypertrm.exe program. Then you can perform the configuration described in this article.
