found so far from my SE about the vg224/SCCP/redundant Link scenario...<br>
<br>
This is undocumented on CCO at the moment (unless it's hidden real good)<br>
If you bind SCCP to the L0 interface, you can use the MAC address for f0/0 in
callmanager to set up the ports and it works fine. you can shut down f0/0 or
unplug it and it will keep working from the f0/1 interface. I dont have any
additional details yet but that sounds promising.. I'm trying to get an
official nod that this setup would be TAC supported. <br>

statement. You can enter a Loopback address. We use EIGRP at our
site. VG224 does not support EIGRP, it does seem to support RIP and
OSPF. RIP could cost you a subnet to have a loopback (not sure if v2 is
supported). I didn't feel like redistributing EIGRP into OSPF just for
one device (if you have multiple vg224s in one location that may make more
sense for you). The other option is to set multiple static routes on the
VG224 and your default gateways to get that loopback address into your routing
tables. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:

<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
Arial;color:navy'>That is correct, SCCP does provide more features than
MGCP. However, if you're trying to use the redundancy of two Ethernet
interfaces you can't in SCCP because it wants a MAC address, you can only enter
one address in CCM.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
Arial;color:navy'>If you're attaching analog devices, what particular features
that SCCP provides did you want? Would you be doing blind transfers with
a fax machine or credit card machine? If analog phones, will the phones
even support the features you want to use?</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
Arial;color:navy'>In SCCP world, the configuration is split between the VG224
and the CCM. You have to configure the CCM and in the VG224 configure
each analog port as well. In MGCP you enter 3-5 basic commands in the
VG224 to point it to your CCM and from there all the configurations for the
ports are done on the CCM. If you're familiar with the IOS commands, that
may be a non-issue, but if anything doesn't work, or you need to make changes,
you now have essentially two separate configurations to administer for every
line.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

way to make the two Ethernet Interfaces work as redundant interfaces as far as
CCM is concerned. If you're using SCCP to CCM you have to specify the MAC
address so that doesn't work. If you're using MGCP, you enter the IP
address of the device. Using a loopback address will not work. It
looks like you might be able to use HSRP, but I've never tried it.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

sure, but just know that even though it says it's running IOS, it's not as
robust. Just because it has two Ethernet interfaces, it doesn't mean you
can use them the way you may be wanting to. Otherwise it's a pretty nice
box and is simple as all getout to configure in MGCP.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt'>I have some vg224's on order for a project this summer,
the reason we chose them instead of the 248's was we had a requirement that the
devices all needed dual ethernet interfaces (is for a dorm on remote campus).
248's would have been less expensive due to the port density but we couldnt get
around the dual interface requirement. Haven't recieved them yet so I can't
comment on anything else about the 224's. <br>
<br>
We've been using the 248's in our health sciences center, haven't really had
any problems with them. I'd prefer IOS on them but thats my only real complaint.
No one has tried to hook up a high speed fax yet though, I heard those werent
supported unless you turn them down. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

wondering what people's opinions are on the two analog gateways (vg248 vs

only have experience (mostly good) with the vg248. I'd rather keep our
inventory similar so I'm leaning towards them rather than starting a new with
vg224s. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
