Thats right I am how in the light.
Great discussion ! 

I remember in the old days before cdp version 3
the phones had to have vlan trunk configured 
with native vlan for the pc vlan. But that is another
story, but then it was clearer in what mode the phone was
connecting. But it was terrible that you had to be carefull
til filter out unneccesary vlans on all phone ports.

But thank you guys very much.

Now I sense that there is danger
to leave the phone in access vlan only
if you don´t realize what will happen to tagging.

regards. Kristjan

Hi Kristján,

The access vlan x and voice vlan y would be similar to do

switchport trunk enca dot1q
switchport trunk allow vlan x,y
switchport trunk native vlan x

So, the show inter trunk would not show the voice vlan "trunk"
interface, but it sure is there. So you would trust cos on both the
voice vlan config and the complete trunk port config.

alternatively you could trust device cisco-phone if available.

If the voice vlan config was not there no frames would be have the
dot1q add-on and hence no COS field to trust. You would trust trust
DSCP in that case.
