[cisco-voip] h323-gateway voip bind srcaddr

Without this command the router will basically pick an IP address at random
to source the h323 packets from.  As you mentioned if that link goes down
for any reason calls sourced from that IP address will drop.  It is also
used when you have an interface on the router the voice vlan devices cannot
route to.  It was a common cause of one-way audio TAC cases back in the day
(and still might be for all I know).   You are spot on with assigning it to
a loopback, assuming the loopback is routable everywhere.

Friends,


I am working on voip setup. I need to know about the command h323-gateway
voip bind srcaddr. In which scenario this command is used? Actually i have
an ospf core network. Each router is accessible from other router through
multiple links. Regarding this command i think, if i create a loopback
interface on all routers and this interface would be the source of voice
packet and destination would be the loopback of the target router then my
voice call will never drop if any link down the network. Because loopback
would be accessible from everywhere.

Need your responses

Best Regards
