E1 for voice/data

We have an existing NORTEL PBX in the main branch and a NORSTAR key system in the remote branch, with E1 connection in between provided by the carrier (leased line). There are 100 analog voice users in the main branch and 8 analog voice users in the remote branch. I want to utilize this E1 connection for voice and DATA applications. Please advise the solution. Thanks -rommel-

Because you don't say anything about any routers or any other devices capable of pachet switching, I suppose you carry on your E1 link only analog voice. The previous answers point out a VoIP solution...but in the same time you can use for example 2 CISCO 2610 with one VWIC-MFT-2E1-DI interface card on each one of the 2 routers...and beginning from here everything is very simple: a number of timeslots (nx64kbps) from the 30 you have on the E1 link will form a serial interface wich can be used to carry data, and the rest of the 64kbps channels will be cross-connected to the PBX.
This is exactly what I have done with one of our clients which has 2 PBXs connected with an E1 link. Following the same idea, he can now use 1Mbps for data transmission and the rest of the E1 link (14 channels for analog voice). You can adapt this to your needs.
Of course, using this idea you will have fewer simultaneous calls than with VoIP solution, but in the same time you will have the call quality specific to analog calls. (anyway, the maximum number of simultaneous calls you need over the link is 8)...and, of course, you don't have to worry about QoS.
The choice is yours...for example, our client didn't want to implement VoIP.
I have implemented both solutions till now, and I can tell you both of them work nice and smooth...

LTE for Voice & Data

So I recently upgraded to a 6+ I have been with Verizon for 4 years & have never used .5gb of data. Now in just 1 week I have used 2gb! I am on my home internet all day. I did receive this text message from VZW;
You recently enabled LTE for Voice/Data & now have Advanced Calling 1.0. Please visit www.vzw.com/AC1.0/iPhone6 to learn more about the service.
I do not understand the advanced calling, could this be affecting my data usage??

You will almost always see a bump in in data use when going from a 3G phone to LTE phone. I hear people say they do the same, but several factors come into play:
1) browsing is faster so you tend to browse more per unit time
2) Any media you do consume (audio, video) will often get sent to you in a higher quality and thus more data for the same listening or watching time
3) You will buffer ahead more due to the speed using data for things that you may never even consume if you go away from a web page or media before finishing it.
My experience seeing 5 people now go from 3G to LTE in the past couple of years is every single one had increase in data. The lowest was a 50% increase and the highest 200%.
I will also confirm that advanced calling does not use your data bucket (it does use data, it just is not subtracted from your limit). Agree with all the above too.

Setting port for Voice + Data

Hi,
I have a 3850 stack (core & access - server or user) and a couple 3750 switches ("user" access) I'm setting up to support a VOIP install. The 3750s are trunked to the 3850 stack. All are at current recommended or greater IOS.
Currently I'm trying to determine if the settings I plan on using for ports is correct. I still have routing to button down but I need the ports proper first. I'm a IOS/Cisco newb so please be patient.
Pertinent info:
There are 3 VLANs, VLAN1 - management, VLAN2 - Data, and VLAN10 - voice. VLAN10 will be marked as the voice VLAN on the switch.
The "user" access devices I will connect to a port are either a PC, a Yealink phone, or a Yealink phone+PC. PC traffic arrives untagged. Yealinks will send a untagged DHCP request, receive a DHCP data, reissue a DHCP request with a VLAN10 tag, and all future communication will be vlan10 tagged.
Here's what I have put together so far for the "user" access ports. Command is for one port (I'll use interface range when I actually do this):
config t
: #--clear all settings on port
default interface G1/0/1
: #-- enter interface setup
interface G1/0/1
description VoiceData
: #-- set port to trunk mode
switchport mode trunk
: #-- set port to 802.1q which allows tagged traffic (phone)
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
: #--we only allow tagged 10, all else is untagged & switch tagged to vlan 2.
switchport trunk allow vlan 10
switchport trunk native vlan 2
: #--speed port init with portfast
spanning-tree portfast
end
Am I on the right track? Other commands I should include? Will the switch prioritize the VLAN 10 traffic automatically since I have VLAN10 set as voice or do I need to issue a switchport voice vlan 10 command for the port?
TIA

Thanks Charles, that appears to be working. Until I get this fully working I'm not going to split management & data, so vlan1 & 10 is all for now.
I'm now trying to get connectivity to the server (VMWare VM). I don't seem to be able to get any communication when it is set to static in the vlan10 subnet (10.10.1.1/24). With the NIC in vlan1 subnet (dhcp) it works perfectly. I tried smartport desktop, smartport trunk, the settings above (both of them) and nothing seems to work. The server will need to talk in both subnets/vlans.
Server cannot ping out and the switch cannot ping it. Initially I thought it was a routing issue. Settings look good though (core switch):
ip address 10.1.4.254 255.255.0.0
interface Vlan1
description Mgmt+Data
ip address 10.1.4.254 255.255.0.0
ip helper-address 10.1.1.13
interface Vlan10
description Voice
ip address 10.10.1.254 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 10.10.1.1
ip default-gateway 10.1.4.3
ip http server
ip http secure-server
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.4.3
I did some dhcp debugging for a phone and it communicates with the vlan1 dhcp server but when it then tries to talk to 10.10.1.1 (VM server) there's no response.
I then figured I had a NIC problem, but with it working perfectly fine with the vlan1 subnet setup my OS appears good.
All this leads me to believe I don't have the port set up properly.
Ideas?

VLAN & DHCP Server setup for voice & Data

We have a single SGE2010 in layer 3 mode switch with a Server 2008 DHCP server.
We will be implimenting a Voip netowork where the PC's connect to the voip phone. I would like to create another vlan - 10. I have created the vlan and assigned the IP on the swtich.
Routing seems to be working. I can ping both IP addresses of the switch on either vlan.
I cannot get DHCP working. In the SGE switch I have enabled DHCP Relay, enabled option 82, set my DHCP Interface as VLan1, and specified the DHCP servers IP address. On the ports I have set the port where the DHCP server connects to as a trunk port with Vlan 1 untagged and vlan 10 tagged. I have set the ports where the phones connect as a trunk port with vlan1 untagged and vlan 10 tagged.
The PC connected to the phone gets an IP from the DHCP server just fine.
The phone does not get an IP address
The scope has been set up on the server.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Uh, I spent HOURS on this. I entered the interface for the DHCP server incorrectly. I thought you entered the interface the DHCP server was on.

VoFR PVC for data and PVC for voice with FRTS

Dear friends, It is my first experience configuring VoFR. My access rate is 128 Kbps and the CIR is 64 Kbps. I configured the router following some cisco examples using "vofr cisco" and FRTS into my "map-class" for voice. You can see my config in the attach file.
It works fine, the quality voice is good (2 calls)when the link is congested up to 100% through bi-directional ftp download.
However, I cannot get a speed upper to 64 Kbps. I understand that it is as FRTS works and it is necesary to QoS for voice. But I`m paying to my service provider a price for 128/64 and I never won`t get a speed greater than 64 Kbps.
How can I solve this problem without increase my CIR?. It has a additional cost.
I`m reading that some solution could be create two PVCs: one for voice and one for data. How should I configure them to get a burst traffic for data upper to 64 Kbps without affect my quality of voice?
Thank you for your suggestions.
Edwin.

The following document has some explaination on the queueing on frame relay interfaces. This might help you understand how to configure different pvcs for voice and data and utilise the given cir fully.

Request: Auto toggle between edge and 3g anteanna for voice vs. data

I would like to see the edge antenna take priority for voice, then auto toggle 3G when surfing GPS and so on. I have a hunch this toggling would improve battery like. I think the Treo works in this fashion. Where does that nify link reside?

Not to be argumentative but this isn't correct.
When your iPhone says 3G it means that it is using UMTS (W-CDMA) for both Voice and Data connections. This is a very different protocol and works over different frequencies than GSM.
When your iPhone says EDGE then it is using the GSM network for Voice on a GSM Cell that supports EDGE specific data enhancements to increase data throughput over normal GSM data (GPRS).
Finally when your iPhone doesn't say EDGE or 3G then it is on a GSM Cell that doesn't support the EDGE data enhancements.
So really the 3G iPhone has to choose between two different Cellular technologies, 2G (GSM) or 3G (UMTS) and the device can't communicate on both of these technologies at the same time.
Have a read of the wiki pages for more information:
UMTS (WCDMA): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WCDMA
GSM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM
Hope this clears things up.

Vlan for voice and vlan for data with diferent ISP best choice of config??

Hello everyone,
Im, Oscar
At our company we have a redundant ISP connection to two separate ISP's.
We are also using VoIP on the network.
Currently one ISP connection is used primarily and the second on is just used as a backup.
I was wondering if it is possible to use the first connection primarily for data traffic and the second connection for VoIP traffic?
We use different VLAN's for voice and data.
Any help would be appreciated.

Questions about Assumption of Liability and device to be used for unlimited data plan

This is my first post on here. I have an opportunity that someone I know is willing to transfer his smartphone plan with unlimited data to me. I have read extensively on here and other sites and gathered some information, and also heard of many complications and questionable losses of unlimited data plans when making various types of changes to devices or services. Some of what I read may be outdated as well if Verizon has made changes in their policies, so I will start with the most obvious question: as of this date, is an AOL possible while keeping the unlimited data plan intact?
If so, here are some other questions I have:
-Will I receive a new SIM card by mail or do I need to use my friend's old SIM card?
-If my ultimate end goal is to use laptop, do I have to connect through a smartphone (and is there any additional charge for that, or would it change the plan), or can I put the SIM card in a mobile hotspot such as the MHS291L and use only the data portion of the plan?
-After getting the plan, is there any way I can get TWO SIM cards - one for a mobile hotspot, and the other strictly for voice and text? If so, how much extra would that cost?
-If we went to a Verizon store to do this transfer or AOL, how can we be absolutely certain it goes smoothly, that no one makes any unauthorized plan changes and does not lose the unlimited data? I have unfortunately read some horror stories of it being lost in similar situations, no one seems to be accountable, and it winds up costing someone countless hours of struggle with Verizon to try to get it back (whether they are successful or not I don't know).
-If at some point the SIM card was lost (such as if I lost the device), can it be replaced without affecting the plan?
For what it's worth (especially for those working for Verizon), I am not looking for a way to hog up absurd amounts of data but simply to be able to do the basic stuff I need to online and maybe watch a movie once in a while without having really huge bills. Even if I used the internet without giving data consumption a second thought, I doubt I'd go much over 25-30GB most months.
Thanks to whoever can provide me with information.

Hi NicandroN_VZW, sorry i did not see your reply in time but thank you just the same. I called the number for the AOL department and they were able to help me with it pretty easily and answer most of my questions
I do have a couple other questions regarding the unlimited data plan on smartphones. I have seen various comments regarding these things online, and i can make a good guess about what "might work," but i'm really looking to know Verizon's official policy on these things, if one exists. In case any non-verizon employees are able to provide this information as well, if you have references to where i can find it in writing that would be helpful.
First, i realize there is an optional $30 fee for mobile hotspot use. But does Verizon have any policy about whether this fee must be paid if i connect only via a USB cable (since it would not actually be a "hotspot," and could not connect multiple devices)?
And my other question is, if i do opt to pay the $30 hotspot fee, is there any policy either for or against using that SIM card in a 4g hotspot such as the MHS291L?
PS i am asking these things here rather than by PM because, given the wide range of opinions which can be found online and that others have looked into similar things, i am sure other people could also benefit from knowing Verizon's policy regarding these things.

Using 3G phone for voice only

After purchasing my beloved iPhone 4, I would like to pass my old 3G phone to my wife, who uses voice only, no data. AT&T says the iPhone 3G will not work properly without a data plan and cannot be used for voice only service. Is AT&T correct? Is there another solution?

AT&T correct? Is there another solution?
Yes. AT&T requires a data plan for ALL iphones on their network. There is no other solution, if you want to use the phone on AT&T's network. If you try and use the phone without a data plan attached, they will catch you & bill accordingly for a data plan. They can tell what type of phone is being used from the IMEI number. The phone will work just fine without a data plan & data turned off, however.

Hardware requirement for voice/fax channel from T1?

Hi all,
I don't know if this is the right forum, but I am looking for validation on my interpretation of hardware requirements.
The scenario:
I currently have a T1 coming in to the facility and terminating into a vendor-supplied Adtran box which splits off one of the channels from the T1 for voice/fax use (the Adtran has a centronics-style connector going to a 66 block)
I am also in the process of ordering ADSL service to supplement the bandwidth for non-business usage.
Rather than end up with a solution involving an adtran, ADSL modem, and router or two... I want to combine all services into a 1751 chassis. My only concern / confusion is how to 'split' off the single voice channel from the T1. There is a phone # associated with the voice channel.
I believe that I will need the router, a multiflex T1 WIC (VWIC-1MFT-T1), ADSL wic (WIC-1ADSL-DG), and an FXS card such as the VIC-2FXS
Am I close here, or completely off base? Any input or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
-P

Paolo,
Thanks for the reply - I guess I'm just trying to figure out if the way I described is the 'concept' and correct WIC/VWIC combination of how to get an analog dialtone from a T1 channel while leaving the rest for data.
I know there are probably many more benefits to going with a more modern router, but this is for personal use (the T1 is tied to a business account, but hosted in my house and maintained by me) and I can't really get an ISR in my price range - 1751s, on the other hand, are easy to come by and affordable - I just want to ensure I can have a single line available for Fax
Thanks!
-P

HT3597 commands for voice control

Is there a list of commands for voice control?

Yea, I have a friend who has noticed this issue on his Z10.
I've tested on my Z30, and the voice feedback is loud and clear. We'll have to figure out the differenced in the devices or OS release, or settings.

"frags delayed" counter incrementing for Voice PVC

Hi,
We are using VoFR between two Cisco 2610 using FXO\FXS Cards. It is a point-point link with two PVCs, one for Voice and one for Data.
I have implemented Traffic-Shaping and FRF. However when i do a "show frame pvc " command, i can see "frags delayed"counter incrementing for the Voice PVC, indiciating delay in sending packets and thus compromising Voice Quality.
1. Is it normal to have this counter increasing ? What is the acceptable percentage i.e "frags delayed \ total frags" ?
2. Is there anything i can do ? Would PVC Priority Queuing help ?
I need to be sure if PVC Priority is the solution, as we would have to do a Flash Upgrade to install the new software with this feature.

Layer 3 Roaming for Voice

What are people using on wireless networks that have VLAN's for voice and data to provide Layer 3 roaming funcionality. Need wireless voice users to be able to roam across subnets seemlessly. Layer 2 works great but scalling to 2000 users. Need a Layer 3 solution. Does anyone have this working ? With a non-cisco wireless voice device?

IP mobility is the feature you are looking for, I guess Cisco will be coming with voice handsets with this feature soon.

Voice/Data T1/E1 Crossover back-to-back Cable DIY or Buy?

Hi All,
I am trying to build a Voice lab and it's starting to cost a fortune for the kit.
I have seen a T1/E1 cross over cable on the link below and I need two of these from my set up
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UTP-Voice-data-T1-E1-Cross-Crossover-back-to-back-Cable-Cisco-Voice-CCIE-CCVP-/230771200798#ht_1364wt_1231
Could anyone advise if this is a special type of UTP cable or is this standard Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors just with a different pinout configuration?
If it's just the order of the wires in the cable I have a reel of UTP and a crimping tool I can use to make my own
Your help is appreciated as always
Cheers,
David

T1/E1 cross over cable is very easy. You should make yours and dont waste your money buying ready made..
The pin out you need is this..
1----------->4
2----------->5
4----------->1
5----------->2
The images below shows you the pin out configuration
