All of my IPO 500's v6 are setup with LAN1 port. I've seen some posts that recommend using the WAN port instead. It looks like LAN1 and LAN2 both have the same QoS options. Is there any advantage to using LAN2?
 
Nope .IPO is basically a router in a closet with dual ethernet interfaces .
 
Lan 1 should be used for telephones and applications all the time.
The second lan port can be used for sip trunks or putting the IPO in the customer network when it has it;s own network.


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!
 
And LAN2 has a Firewall, LAN1 doesn't

I'm just doing that thing you mencioned: "The second lan port can be used for sip trunks or putting the IPO in the customer network when it has it;s own network"
How can I do that?
I have my 172.70.70.x for voice and 192.168.3.x for data, but with voicemail pro and contact store in same segment as voice and I need internet to send recordings to email. How can I reach the data segment through the WAN?
With a router rule, if I put in 192.168.3.x I can ping 172, but not viceversa.
Thnks in advane
 
You need an iproute in the IPO.
make it like this:

192.168.3.0
255.255.255.0
192.168.3.xxx where xxx is the default gateway.
Lan 2



BAZINGA!

I did that and got error: The ip address enteres is outside od the destination LAN subnet range.
and showed error in gateway ip address.
 
What if you try this:

0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0
192.168.3.xxx
Lan 2

The ip address enteres is outside od the destination LAN subnet range" that only shows when you enter a gateway on a different subnet to the systems LAN port :)

same error with that too.
The only thing that I can reach from voice 172.x.x.x is the router 192.x.x.x
 
thnks amriddle01 and tlpeter, I saved config with that error and still can´t reach the other segment.
 
The route

0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0
192.168.3.xxx
Lan 2

Must work.
Delete it, save and make a new one.
Sometimes it will show an error from a previous setting.

Peter's route of:

0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0
192.168.3.xxx
Lan 2

Will only work if the systms LAN2 port has a 192.168.3.x address, I imagine it doesn't which is why you are getting the error. That's why we need to know what the IP's of the systems ports are and what the gateways address is on the two subnets :)

Andy the voice lan is a 172.xxx.xxx.xxx network and the data on lan 2 is a 192.168.3.x network

BAZINGA!

If that was the case they wouldn't be the error about the gateway, just because someone has decided that those are the vlan's doesn't mean all the programming required to make it happen has also been done, I always assume not hence the question about addresses :)

Just wonder if IPO LAN2-Lan setting is not in 192.168.3.0/24 network ?
 
This route "192.168.3.0
255.255.255.0
192.168.3.xxx where xxx is the default gateway.
Lan 2"

Is also wrong/not required as the system does not need a route for local traffic :)

I'm really sorry. The error disappear, I totally forgot the lan2 ip.
Now, I think my error is in gateway address.
Lan 1: 172.70.70.5
mask: /24
gateway: 0.0.0.0

lan 2: 192.168.3.55
mask: /24
gateway: 192.168.1.254

ip route: ip: 0.0.0.0
mask: 0.0.0.0
gateway: 192.168.3.254
lan 2
