Question : ftpserver config for IP phone accessing remote network w/VLAN over VPN

We are going to use DHCP for some new IP phones that will be connected to the HQ network via a hardware VPN.  The HQ network uses a VLAN to keep all phone traffic separated, but the VLAN will not be usable over the VPN.

I just have one question.
 
The DHCP scope in HQ has the following option, which tells the phones where to get their config & firmware from:

ftpservers=10.55.4.76,layer2tagging=1,vlanid=2

Since we are not using VLANs at the two remote sites, I set the scope option to:
ftpservers=10.55.4.76,layer2tagging=0

Since I am shipping the phones to a site with no technical staff, We just need to confirm if that is correct.

Thanks,

Steve

Answer : ftpserver config for IP phone accessing remote network w/VLAN over VPN

Why would you set option 150?  No tftp is needed with shoretel phones.  Shoretel you setup the following DHCP option...

Setup option 156   ftpservers=xxx.xx.xxx.xx, country=1, language=1, layer2tagging=0, vlanid=1

Technically it should ignore the vlanid after the layer2tagging is set to 0 but the specified syntax is correct.

Just make sure you setup the IP Phone Map to map the IP address range that those phones will pull to a specified site.
