IPO 8.0 and 9620L as VPN phone

[nixonmi]

Hello,

in case of connecting central site (IPO 8.0 and VPN router) to remote location (9620L IP phone and router) is it mandatory to provide Teleworker or Power User licenses for remote users?
Do you have experience what VPN router or firewall to use for central and for remote locations in case of 50 remote users (1 or 2 user per location)?

Also, in case when on remote location exists VPN router, non-VPN IP phone could be used (1600 IP phone). In that case is it mandatory to provide Teleworker or Power User licenses? Also some proposition for VPN router on remote site.

Regards,

I suppose that in the first case, 9620L VPN phone should have public IP address i.e. router or ADSL modem on remote location?

When you use a 96XX phone as a remote worker then you need a teleworker license (or power user)
When you use a 16XX phone then you must have a router to router VPN.
When you use a 96XX as a VPN phone then you do not need a teleworker license.


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

Thanks for clear answer.

>>When you use a 16XX phone then you must have a router to router VPN.
And it this case it is not needed teleworker license also?

Hello hairlessupportmonkey,

The information from IPO Product description from section about teleworker user profile "The teleworker is also capable of using a VPN phone." was direct me to post this question on forum.

According to your advice, I searched IP Office KB but I didn't find information about VPN phones and user profiles, clearly explained like tlpeter answered.
So please, can you send me a that link, just to know for future.


In case of using 16xx phones behind VPN router, it is not needed teleworker license, isn't it?

What performances would need a cental VPN router will be appropriate on central location in case of 50 remote VPN phones?
IMHO, Cisco 1921 (150 VPN connections) and WAN link of min. 1,5Mb/s symmetrical would be enough?

1,5Mb/s is not enough bandwidth to support that many tunnels with voip calls really, even on the lowest codec
