Episode 97: Networked Devices — VoIP Phones, Printers, and Controls

This episode explores networked devices beyond standard workstations and servers. VoIP phones, network printers, and control systems are introduced as endpoints that rely on network connectivity for proper function. While these devices may seem routine, they introduce unique challenges and appear in exam objectives because they must be supported and secured within enterprise environments.The discussion expands with examples such as configuring Quality of Service (QoS) to support VoIP calls, managing print servers to handle shared devices, and ensuring control systems are isolated from general traffic. Troubleshooting issues include misconfigured VLANs affecting phones, driver conflicts on printers, or access problems in management interfaces. By understanding these device types, you’ll be prepared to handle exam questions and provide practical support in operational networks.
