[cisco-voip] Remote 7961 Phone at Someone's House - Notes forSetup!

[Sullivan, Gary, GREENWICH, Information Services]

Hey Guys
I've just catching up on the list. And I have this working with our call center (IPCC)
We've started with 831's with 7940 and 7960 phone's. I have one 871 working but have not tested silent monitoring on it yet. I use SDM to configure the 831 an 871. and accepted the default qos options.
using both g711 and g729 codec's. My 871 is off line at my house so I can't pull the config. We have 20 home agents now and are going up to 80 by first quarter next year.
Here are some command line thing that have to be added.


.
RAXX(config)#ip dhcp pool sdm-pool
RAXX(dhcp-config)#option 150 ip 10.10.10.10

RAXX(config)#crypto ipsec df-bit clear

RAXX(config)#interface ethernet 0
RAXX(config-if)#ip tcp adjust-mss 1300

Hi all,

Very interesting tread, I suppose that everyone or at least a lot of us
faced with this task.  And how wrote Tech Guy - QoS - the main problem.

But  what about Skype Enterprise solution ?? Skype provide a good voice
quality over public internet, agnostic to NAT. Seems a good solution for

In house workers, traveling person and so on.

Note: I am not implement it and actually donn't know anybody how use it 
So it is very interesting to know what do you think about it ??

After some searches in the internet its seems that technically this is
possible , but yes have pros and cons. 

Architecture:

At the main side we can use some kind of Skype GW's

FXO/FXS/PRI

At the customer we can use Skype ATA

Setup!

The following is information that I have rec'd regarding the
installation of a 7961 at someone's house who is using cable or DSL.  Is
there anything else that we might need to think about?  Thank you!

Notes from Cisco Engineer:

The remote equipment at the home office would consist of a Cisco 871
router and a Cisco phone with a power block.  The Cisco 871 would
function as the home office's firewall and router (and would connect to
either a cable modem or a DSL modem depending on the site).  The router
would be configured to have an IPSec tunnel back to the office network
(most likely configured off of your existing concentrator).  The remote
Cisco 871 would be configured with DHCP and have the TFTP scope option
set to tell all devices the IP address of the Call Manager server (note
the router has a built-in four port switch).
 At that point, the IP Phone would register normally to the Call Manager
servers using the IPSec tunnel as it's communication path.  The
keepalives from the phone to the CM servers would keep the IPSec tunnel
up and running 24/7.

 The restrictions on this type of deployment are:

                        -must use G729 codec due to bandwidth
restrictions

                        -extremely limited QoS control since we are
going across the Internet

                        -security policies need to be visited since the
remote office would have access to the corporate internal network (this
one is a biggie)

                                    -sub-issue regarding calling from
home office to home office.  This is doable but adds additional security
and deployment issues.

                        -need to consider the standard IT management
overhead associated with supporting home equipment.



Thank you!
