I second Etherchannel from the upstream device. I had a customer who insisted on binding to the PortChannel interface for the voice protocols, even though we recommended using the Loopback. It's up and running just fine and does handle failure of a single link as expected.<br>

You should use a loop back and bind everything to in instead of the physical<br>
interface.<br>
<br>
If you want Ethernet redundancy you should be able to create an ether<br>
channel down from the router if you are going into the same switch or have<br>
VSS on the 6500.<br>
<br>
If not I have also bridged it into two separate switches using a BVI like<br>
you are looking at.<br>

Subject: [cisco-voip] ISR/VG Ethernet redundancy<br>
<br>
Hello everyone<br>
<br>
I have a few questions regarding bridge virtual interfaces and voice<br>
protocols:<br>
- is binding sccp and/or mgcp to a bvi interface supported by Cisco Tac?<br>
- any official configuration guides for this kind of connectivity?<br>
- anyone have this configuration in production and would care to share<br>
his/hers feedback?<br>
<br>
<br>
My main goal is to be able to use the spare ethernet interfaces on a<br>
router/vg for redundancy but I was surprised by the lack of official<br>
guidance on the subject.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Ovidiu<br>
<br>
