Boris,

This config should be covered in the admin guide, at least it is for Cisco and 
port-security VLAN changes.  The guide says to use the Voice VLAN interface 
command but we’ve inadvertently tested recently a trunk interface and PF 
switched the data Native VLAN on the trunk.  I’ve done a lot of port-security 
straight up switch port, i.e. not VoIP, successful testing over the years in a 
lab environment (we’re still not production), but have been dragging my feet on 
testing Polycom VoIP attached PC’s, I guess the ‘VoIP attached PC dilemma’ has 
me procrastinating, i.e. the admin guides say the VoIP phone reboots on the 
VLAN change port bounce but the attached PC is said to not initiate DHCP’, I 
guess we’re hoping/reasoning that the attached PC’s change location/phone’s 
infrequently enough that we can live with manually forcing the PC to initiate 
DHCP by unplugging the cable or rebooting the machine.  I really need to stop 
procrastinating and test this.
