VOIP question 1

[donnier]

We have an option 61c-release25-issue 15+.We setup a small
LAN with a few i2004's connected to a swith into the PBX.
My question is,we have a remote site connected with a data
T-1. If we take the i2004 switch and connect that into our
main LAN(our LAN team will not let me go direct into there
netwok)can I connect one i2004 at our remote site and have it find the PBX? Thanks for the help

IF you can ping your IP-line card from the remote site, then yes.
We have 2 IP phones in China connecting to a 61C in the Netherlands.

just make sure that you have a route built back to the network your tlan is on and that vlan segmentation is in place.. some places because a ping is a broadcast, you can extend your tlan without passing broadcast, but of course the phones will not work dhcp.. the dhcp request itself is a broadcast
