nope, not filtered a bit....

all the 10.10.2.x addresses are the phones themselves... all the 10.10.3.x are the controller cards in the phone system..... 

as far as I know.. the 3300 superstack III has no options for voIP, not even QoS options....  i'll keep looking... if nothing else, i'll VLan the crap, but that's a pain..

It's gotta be the switch.
(filters set up for specific VoiP traffic, SPAN/config option???)

There's similiar traffic from other devices, which all appear to be VoIP
related (data and/or mgmt type ack packets).
But no other application's unicast packets (unless you've filtered down what
you sent).

...interesting.

What MAC level addresses are being used in the packets?
The VoIP app could be using unicast addressing at the network layer and
broad/multicasting for delivery.
