*/I am trying to get an ip phone up that is in Italy. I can see packets coming from the phone from italy. However I need to look at the 802.1q/p bits that are inserted into the MAC frame to make sure they are being tagged. I can’t seem to see the 802.1q field on any of the packets. I am using Cisco trunking on ports going to the router and IP Phones using dot1q encapsulation. I am also using SPAN to port mirror the trunk to see the traffic. I can see all the traffic but that I can’t see the VLAN information or the COS bits. Can you please help me?/*
