While he says the right thing that VLAN is stupid for VoIP....... Well it is still Curtis..

Perfect example of certs meaning nothing (if it's true).

Perfect example of someone giving me misinformation yet again. I was told that VLAN's are supposed to be used for VoIP QoS

I can't tell if you're serious or not.

If it makes me look ignorant (or proves me to be ignorant) it's typically true

You work for a govt entity. I would distrust anything IT related they say to you by default. Govt IT is awful. I work for a DoD contractor and it's even bad at this level. @coliver is also govt I think but he's an exception to the rule.
There are some who do know what they're talking about but they're hard to find

Ok, it's just odd because this is a topic that has been discussed ad nauseum here and the other site.

Well this is from way back. I don't do anything VoIP related so it's just a piece of information I've carried with me, not really understanding VoIP. That will change though as I'm going to implement it at home soon.

I don't really read the VoIP stuff here (or anywhere) because I have never managed it. I already have a lot to learn even without VoIP

VoIP as we know it today was from 1995. Curtis has a trend of claiming to work in industries before things existed, but then turns out that they were in use at the time.

That's gotta be around the #3 most common topic on SW. RAID, IPOD and VLANs are the big three that I can think of that the same misinformation is given, the same corrections given and it is on continuous repeat.

oh, I know. this is a fairly standard claim from him. you will see it all the time.

Understanding VoIP would not be a factor. It's understanding VLANs, once you know what they are, you know they don't apply like this regardless of the protocol.

Like he remembers the Internet being invented in 1998.

I have not needed to even use VLAN's for any of my jobs if you think about it. Small business even in mindset. We use them here but it was already setup before I was here, as was everything else

Danny Cohen did VoIP in 1973, just one year after modern IP was developed in 1972.

But you still need to know NOT to use them. That's all you need to know.

@wirestyle22 I dont think you should feel bad for thinking this. If you rewind 10+ years vendors like Allworx (grrrr) would deflect every quality issue as a result of you not deploying VLANS and QoS on your 12 phone network. Hah! And I am talking about Allworx with a PRI attached who is telling you your LAN is some kind of bottleneck.
Allworx had and may still have a header issue.
I still come across customers with band issues that have some legacy VLAN/QoS configured (and configured wrong most of the time).
So, point being, you really couldnt fault someone for having this "misinformation".

@bigbear I just came back from a 4 day vacation so the self-loathing is pretty low right now but thanks
