voip trunk ?

[norstarboy125]

Hello all,

I have a new install where I have to tie together 2 sites with BCM's and some other sites that are going to just have ip sets. The 2 BCM's should be tied together with voip trunks and I have tied together many MICS's and Option Pbx's with point to point T1's or e&m's but I'm new to the voip trunk set up. I know that you need keycodes for both BCM's and i'm sure you have to build dest. codes,routes, and taget lines correct? but what kind of setting are needed on the networks-routers that the BCM's will be connected to for them to allow voice.Can someone advise......

thanks

We use Cisco core routers, with PIX firewall, for VPN we use Checkpoint riding on MPLS from AT&T,MCI and BT backbone . Not expert on PIX nor Checkpoint so I can not tell ya. Cisco routers are not user friendly nor for the faint of heart . Yes you can use GUI to do simple management but line commands are where you get the most out of it. Been doing BCM in Cisco environment for 3 years now and Cisco is much more harder to learn IMHO . We have about over 30 BCM's and about 400 Cisco router wherein we also have CM express and Centralized CM in redundancy mode covering US, Can, UK, India . I can always train a Cisco guy in 2,3 weeks and he can take over the BCM while most of tip & ring guys usually scream and run away when I throw them at CM express ...

Just my 2 cents
