We would be starting from scratch so I'm just trying gather information now for decisions that could need to be made down the road. No current purchases in the works but some very early talk.

I know that. We just haven't done it yet. Too many other things to do. And as the old saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it.". It is working well. I'm not saying that it couldn't be better because it certainly could. It has not become a big enough issue to spend the time and effort required to mess with VLAN for the phones.
