#31 Support for Voice VLANs
I have noticed that when using Switchmap (which is great by the way) if a port has a Voice VLAN, it does not show it. It shows the native vlan that the port is set to access, but not the Voice VLAN. Can that be added? and can it show what device is on what VLAN? Of course this is to show the VLAN of a phone with a computer tethered to it. Thanks for a great product. If I can help with this piece, please let me know.

At my site, we have Cisco switches, Cisco VOIP phones, auxiliary VLANs on the switch ports that are connected to phones, and computers connected to many of the phones. SwitchMap produces output like the attached screenshot, which shows some typical phone interfaces. In the attachment, port Gi2/5 is a good example. You're right, Switchmap doesn't show the auxiliary VLAN number. Do you see something similar? If so, you want to see the auxiliary VLAN number, right? I just want to be sure I understand the request. BTW, this is output from the most recent code, which I should've released but haven't.
I've considered showing the auxiliary VLAN in the VLAN column. For port Gi2/5, the auxiliary VLAN number would be on a new line in the VLAN cell, right above the "8". It would line up with the lines in the "LLDP" and "MAC Address" columns, but the reader might have a hard time associating the top and bottom lines in table cells that are so far apart. I've considered reordering the columns so that the "VLAN", "LLDP" and "MAC Address" columns are next to each other. Then I could also change the table cells such that those cells have a "top" and "bottom" subcell, separated by a thin horizontal line. It would take some work but would address your issue and hopefully look nice.
