[cisco-voip] Voice Delay

[Blomfield, Adam]

I have several remote sales offices that are connected to our
CallManager cluster over internet VPN connections. Most of the time they
work fine; other than the occasional voice breakup that is to be
expected when running over a public network. One problem that seems to
come up is a delay in establishing the voice path. This happens at one
office on a very regular basis. The phone will ring and the user will
pick up the receiver, however it takes about 10 - 15 seconds for the
voice path to be established. They find themselves repeating "hello...
hello?" into the handset about three or four times before the other
person can hear them. The seems to be happening most frequently on
external calls. The sites all have local PSTN connections coming into
FXO ports on a local 2600 series gateway. This is used for both incoming
and outgoing calls. I don't see how where the latency is occurring as
the voice traffic never actually traverses the WAN. The call control
packets are obviously happening as the phone rings, and after that
everything should be local so there should be no delay. Does anyone have
any ideas?


Thanks,
Adam
