On an IP Office R6 V2 Can anyone explain the benefit of using the VPN on the individual 5621 phones as described on Tech Tip 184 vs a VPN from point to point with Netgear FVS338 Routers.

I have 2 sites one with the IP Office, one with 2-5621 sets as Endpoints. Currently set up over a VPN. Call quality is terrible only on outbound, inbound voice is great. Even when I assign priority to ports 49152-53246.

I have a very difficult customer I am trying to work with as well..Bandwidth is 3-5 MBS down 299KBS up...yes KBS

The customer is refusing to upgrade service. I have disconnected everything on the network and calls sound fine..to me an obvious bandwidth issue but I am trying to find a work around...

Any Ideas?
 
Small calculation....
The codec used is G.729 that gives 30kbs over a IpsecVPN which means bandwith usage grow to 66kbs, available is 299 with a 6:1 overbooking ( optimistic ) which gives a minimum available bandwith of 299:6=50kbs and a call always need 66kbs at minimum.
If the full upload capacity isnot available the sound gets disrupted, 299kbs is by far not enough!
 
Try G.723, although it sounds pretty compressed.
 
Point to point vpn will have the same issues.
They just need more bandwidth.


When you pay peanuts, you get monkeys!

honey, i fried the IP Office !!!

Sarcasm, it's only one of the services I offer.
