Level365 supports VLAN (Virtual LAN) configurations for VoIP deployments. VLANs are commonly used to separate voice and data traffic, helping support organized, scalable, and efficient network design.
How VLANs Are Used with VoIP
In most environments, VLANs are used to separate voice traffic from data traffic. This helps:
- Improve call performance by reducing interference from other network activity
- Allow prioritization of voice traffic across the network
- Simplify network organization and management
Separating voice traffic into its own VLAN is a common industry practice for VoIP deployments.
When to Use VLANs
VLANs are typically used when:
- Multiple devices share the same network
- Network traffic is segmented or managed across different device types
- Voice traffic prioritization is desired
- A structured and scalable network design is in place
VLANs provide a flexible way to organize and manage network traffic while supporting consistent VoIP performance
Typical Level365 Deployment
When VLANs are used with Level365 services, the most common setup includes:
- IP phones assigned to a dedicated voice VLAN
- The Level365 EdgeMarc Session Border Controller connected to an untagged (access) port on the network
- The local network handling VLAN tagging and segmentation
