<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>We currently have about 40 production
remote home teleworkers that have been deployed using Cisco 871/877 wireless routers
and a 7960 phones. We are using a Cisco 3845 series router at the
head-end so that we can control QoS tagging on the egress / ingress points of
both sides of the VPN tunnel. We are using a phase 2 DMVPN solution
dual-homed to two sites to provide secure redundant connectivity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>It took me a bit to tweak my
router configurations (I started on Cisco 831/837 routers) to get the results
that we wanted, but all and all our users are happy. There is the occasional
jitter and packet loss (it is the Internet mind you) but g.729 is working quite
well coupled with business cable and DSL services.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I was wondering want everyone out there is using for the
situation where you have someone on your CCM or CCME that has 1 phone at a home
office. Something tells me an ASA is overkill and I haven’t found solid
information that any of the 87x routers support tagging QoS of packets going
through the VPN tunnel. We would obviously like to have QoS in place even
though it’s not respected at their ISP just to make sure the VPN/Voice
packets are leaving their routers first as a best effort to get some quality. <o:p></o:p></p>
