    • Phone boots up on untagged network and option 66 or redirect server is set to send the phone to the PBX for a configuration file.

    • In the template that the phone will use, you have option 132 enabled as shown above in the VLAN DHCP and disabled LLDP

    • The boot will pull its configuration on boot and receive the information to enable options 132 and disable LLDP

    • The IP phone broadcasts a DHCP Discover message to find out if there is a DHCP server available.

    • If the DHCP server sends a DHCP Offer message with the Option 132, the phone will accept the Offer, send a DHCP Request, and save the VLAN ID provided by the DHCP server in the DHCP option 132.

    • After the DHCP server has sent the ACK message to the phone, the phone will release the leased IP address and start a new DHCP Discover cycle using the now known Voice VLAN ID tag.

    • After this process, the phone will send all packets with the VLAN ID learned from the DHCP server in the DHCP option 132.
