RV042 VOIP

Good day,
I need to establish IPSEC VPN connection to some remote site. The two site have to communicate over IP, so on one end ti will be SIP PBX, and on the other side we will have an agents with sip phones
There will be at max 60 channels up between agents and pbx through RV042 VPN's at both side (with IPSEC between them) So I am wondering is is it possible to have a good voice quality in configuration like this? How many pps is possible to go through whis VPN
Sorry for bad editing, it is something wrong with this editor?? )....

Greetings,
I don't know if this directly applies to your situation, we are testing a main office with an ASA5505 and teleworkers with RV120W routers. We setup IPSec tunnels from each RV120W Bach to main office.
The teleworkers have 1 or 2 PCs and an IP phone. The main office has the servers including an Astrisk phone server.
Removing filters and including the remote sites subnet in the Astrisk SIP configuration information was painful to troubleshoot.
Hope this was useful.
Bob

  • RV042 VoIP-phone reports "Registration failed"

    This is a continuation of a discussion that I erroneously marked "answered".
    The title was "RV042 protocol binding for SIP and RTP (VoIP)"
    I would like to provide a link to it here but I don't know how.

    Problem is solved. Reason was that Network Service Detection was enabled and the Default Gateway did not respond to ping requests which resulted in a WAN failure condition with the consequence of protocol bindings failing over to the working WAN which is inappropriate for the IP-phone registering with the IP telephony provider.

  • RV042 & VOIP Issues

    Hello everyone. I have a client that recently purchased some RV042 routers to establish VPN connections between their offices. The VPN works great and the only issue we have right now is with their IP phone system. The problem that is occuring is that the phones work fine, but they only get 1 way audio on the phones from the remote locations. Discussing the phone system with their phone support guy we found that ALG (Application Layer Gateway) is usually the culprit here. Here's my problem with this, there doesn't seem to be a setting in the RV042 router to shut off ALG. Am I missing something here? The current firmware on the main router is version 4.0.4.02-tm does anyone know if the latest firmware has the option of turning off ALG?
    Thank you for any help you can provide. I appreciate it.

    RV0xx does not support SIP ALG.
    Firmware 4.1.1.01 fixed an issue with SIP. Perhaps you want to give it a try.

  • RV042 protocol binding for SIP and RTP (VoIP)

    Hello everybody,
    I have a RV042 with a DSL (WAN1) and cable (WAN2) internet connection in Load Balance Mode. The DSL provider also provides internet telephony when registered via his line. When I disable the WAN2 port, my IP phone successully registers with the registration server of the DSL provider. I also defined protocol bindings for SIP (port 5060) and RTP (ports 5004 to 5020) to be bound to WAN1. My IP phone is set up to listen on only these ports.
    The rules are in detail:
    SIP(UDP/5060~5060) -> "myPhoneIP"~"myPhoneIP" ("RegistrationServerP"~"RegistrationServerIP") WAN1 [Enabled]
    SIP(UDP/5060~5060) -> "RegistrationServerIP"~"RegistrationServerIP" ("myPhoneIP"~"myPhoneIP") WAN1 [Enabled]
    RTP(UDP/5004~5020) -> "myPhoneIP"~"myPhoneIP" ("RegistrationServerP"~"RegistrationServerIP") WAN1 [Enabled]
    RTP(UDP/5004~5020) -> "RegistrationServerIP"~"RegistrationServerIP" ("myPhoneIP"~"myPhoneIP") WAN1 [Enabled]
    With these protocol bindings in place when I re-enable WAN2, then after some time the phone reports "registration failed".
    Do I need to set something else apart from protocol binding to force the VoIP traffic to go via WAN1?
    Thanks for your help
    Felix

    Pardon my memory if I am mistaken, when configuring the protocol bind for the WAN port, there are 4 or 5 options. Service, which of course is 1~65535, source IP, in this scenario it should be the phone or PBX, whatever you're using. The destination IP should be 0.0.0.0 and interface is your desired WAN, WAN 1 or 2.
    Example:
    Wan 1- Cable       Wan 2 - Dsl
           |                              | 
           | ________________ |
                          |
                      RV042-----------
                  ____|                |
                  |                     Computer  192.168.10.100
              Tele/PBX 192.168.10.250
    On this example to route the Telephone / PBX to WAN 1
    All services 1~65535
    Source IP 192.168.10.250
    Destination IP 0.0.0.0
    Interface WAN 1
    Please correct me if I am mistaken, I'm currently not at work due to the US holiday

  • RV042 questions

    Hi
    I have a client in a single location with around 30 employees. They currently have Covad full T1 and VOIP running through a couple of Cisco managed switches. Right now I have them using a Netgear FVS114, which is pretty stable. I connect through an IPSec tunnel for admin purposes.
    Their T1 seems to have occasional outages, and at 1.5Mb is often saturated. I'd like to get them on a dual-WAN system with a DSL supplier (probably AT&T), and wanted to know if the RV042 would be a good fit for their situation. I have a couple of questions for anyone who has experience with this setup.
    1) Will it work happily with the VOIP service I have on one of the connections? Can I do any kind of QOS/bandwidth management with this unit, or should I in fact leave the VOIP QOS to Cisco's management?
    2) I understand I can set the unit up in load-balance or failover mode. I'd love to have it working most of the time as a load-balancer between the two connections, to get higher throughput for the office. If it's in load-balance mode, and one of the connections fails (eg, the T1), will it switch over to the second connection automatically?
    3) My preferred method of VPN through the FVS114 is an IPSec configuration with IPSecuritas on Mac. It's likely that we'll increase the use of VPN at the office, with potentially up to 5 people creating a connection to the office from their home location. What's the throughput for the RV042 for each IPSec connection?
    3) Are there any catches I should watch out for when setting up a dual WAN? I understand that some websites which track IP addresses may not work correctly, since a particular user may connect to a site from both WAN ports in succession. Can anyone add detail to this issue, and what kinds of sites may not work with this configuration? Is there any way to maintain sessions through one port or the other?
    I think that's all for now - very grateful for any help provided.
    Matt

    >1) Can I do any kind of QOS/bandwidth management with this unit
    SR: I recall there is an appendix in the user guide that provides instructions on using the Bandwidth Management feature for VoIP services.
    >2) I understand I can set the unit up in load-balance or failover mode. I'd love to have it working most of the time as a load-balancer between the two connections, to get higher throughput for the office. If it's in load-balance mode, and one of the connections fails (eg, the T1), will it switch over to the second connection automatically?
    SR: In load balance mode, if a WAN goes down (as detected by the NSD mechanism), all traffic will be redirected to the other WAN automatically. There might be a couple of minutes before the redirection happens. 
    >3) My preferred method of VPN through the FVS114 is an IPSec configuration with IPSecuritas on Mac. It's likely that we'll increase the use of VPN at the office, with potentially up to 5 people creating a connection to the office from their home location. What's the throughput for the RV042 for each IPSec connection?
    SR: RV042 can handle about 50Mbps of IPSec traffic at a maximum. This capacity will be shared by all IPsec connections.
    >3) Are there any catches I should watch out for when setting up a dual WAN? I understand that some websites which track IP addresses may not work correctly, since a particular user may connect to a site from both WAN ports in succession. Can anyone add detail to this issue, and what kinds of sites may not work with this configuration? Is there any way to maintain sessions through one port or the other?
    SR: RV042 will direct all packets within a TCP connection to the same WAN port. If a site requires 2 TCP connections coming from the same ip address during the login process, users may experience login failure. An easy workaround is to bind the https service to a dedicated WAN port. In case the dedicated WAN port goes down, the router will still redirect the https traffic to the other WAN port.

  • RV082 RV042 RV042G v4 firmware bug?

    Models affected:  RV082 v3 (primarily)  -  also RV042 v3 and RV042G
    Symptoms:
    1) web admin GUI stops responding
    2) internet speed slows or stops completely
    Temporary Fix:
    1) power-cycle the router, everything works fine for a random period of time
    Notes:
    1) happens after a month or so for RV082 that is giving me trouble.
    2) seems to affect a large number of units but not all units
    3) this has been going on for a YEAR OR MORE without resolution
    4) also, I can only program this router with IE - for firefox, I can't get past the certificate warning and to the login prompt.
    5) could this be related to https login and broken code regarding SSL certificate or its integration into the web GUI?
    6)  yes, I have reset the unit to factory defaults and reprogrammed
         yes, I have tried different firmware revisions
         yes, I am on the current firmware
         yes, I have re-issued the SSL certificate
    Maybe the team writing the firmware could get their hands on some of the reported units with these issues and see how they behave, figure out what the real problem is so we can stop beating our heads against the wall?

    What Samir said...
    FWIW - here's what I've settled on:
    RV042 v1 with the last v1 firmware.  I have a couple clients with these.  I want them to die but they won't, so they are still running fine. Some develop that squealing sound in the power supply section.  Had one or two fail and upgraded to RV082
    RV042 v3 (not sure which firmware)  I had one client with this, NEVER had an issue
    RV042G - never tried one, and I don't plan on it  (maybe an RV320, although I prefer rackmountable units)
    RV082 v1 with last v1 firmware (v2 firmware will break it) -  several of my clients have these, and I use one at home.  They just run and run and run, and occasionally one might need to have the CMOS battery replaced.  I just configured one of these with a Dual-WAN and it works great.  I prefer the v4 firmware UI that comes on the v3 units.
    RV082 v2 = JUNK!!
    RV082 v3 - firmware v4.1.1.01-sp is stable and has been running one of my clients for 2 years no issues.  firmware v4.2.3.03 came loaded on a new one that was purchased in 2014 and that has also been running fine.  The first gets heavy internet use with skype, audio streaming, websites.  The latter has 9 VoIP phones (phonebooth) behind it and using bandwidth priority rules to share a 800kb upstream. 
    ** v4 firmwares are unified across all v3 hardware (RV042, 82, 42G) - I only trust the two versions listed directly above.  If you change/update to one of these firmwares to resolve issues, reset the router to defaults, flash the firmware, maybe reset it to defaults again just to be sure, and then program it from scratch.  Save your config from the stable firmware and then you can use that to reload if you do more resetting later.
    RECOMMENDATIONS:
    **  I love that the RV082 is rackmountable, has an internal PSU, and has an 8-port switch.  It's only a few bucks more so just forget the RV042 and get the faster/better option.
    ** The RV325 is a compelling successor to the RV082.  (basically an RV082 with Gigabit ports).   It has better firewall throughput and processing, also has newer features for QoS and multiple DHCP on several vLANs.  I picked up one last year to replace an RV082 but I figured out a solution before swapping the routers.  I haven't been brave enough nor had enough time to give it a real test yet.  Hoping to do so soon.  It has external PSU which is not so great but I can deal with that - at least it's rackmountable.
    (I have retracted my comment about the ISA series.  I configured one running on early firmware and was impressed, but evidently they had issues and Cisco stopped making them after a relatively short run, which is a bad sign).

  • Load balance issues with RV042

    Hi,
    I have some issue to configure my RV042.
    I have 8 voip phones and 10 pcs on my network. I used DHCP to attribute IP between 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.20 to the phones and over .100 to the PC. I want my phone to have their own connexion. My switch doesn't support VLAN
    Here is a screeshot of my config
    The phones use WAN2, the PCs use WAN1 except to send emails.
    Everything seems ok. If I change the ip of my computer to 192.168.1.19 I can verify on the web that my public ip is know as the one of WAN2, and if I change for 192.168.1.115, my public IP is the same as WAN1.
    Few days ago, I checked the web interface of my phones provider and I watched the public IPs of each of my phones. Some have the wan2 IP but other have wan1 IP.
    I thought I forced my phone to use WAN2 internet connection ... so how would my phone providers know the wan1 public IP ?? Is there another thing I have to check or force to avoid my phone tu use WAN1 ??
    Thanks in advance,
    Franxoois

    Up
    Any advice or something I should learn or check ? Is this normal or known bug ?
    Is there an easiesr way to do something like that ?

  • Rv042 loose connection

    Hello,
    i have Cisco rv042.
    Firmware Version: v4.2.3.03
    configured dual wan and load balance.
    i`ve problem with Patton sn4639 BRI So VOIP Router, that every minute loose connection, and need te register again.... when it connected directly to modem everything work`s fine.
    Any ideas how to fix it?
    thank you

    Hi Taras, 
    As I understand you have Dual WAN and Load balancing , my question do you setup a protocol binding to bind the Voice traffic to go through only one WAN 
    with protocol binding you can dedicate WAN1 for example for voice Traffic 
    Protocol binding is working from LAN to WAN under protocol binding setting you have to choose the source IP range , you can have Range of IP for the phone 
    Destination 0.0.0.0 - 0.0.0.0  and select WAN 1 for example and enable it and save the configuration
    Please let me know after your testing
    thanks

  • Rv042 dual-wan threshold based load balance?

    I have an RV042 (it's old, silver/dark grey plastic front one) w/ firmware 1.3.13.02-tm.
    The reason we bought this (long ago) was to balance two WAN connections, one with unlimited data and one capped monthly.  It did that once, but for a couple years both connections have been unmetered so it's just been balancing them 50/50.  As of today one WAN connection (the new much faster one) is back to being metered but I can't figure out how to configure the RV042 as it once was to prefer sending traffic over the slow, unmetered connection first, and only use the faster metered connection when necessary.
    It's been a long time and honestly I only vaguely remember the ability to prioritize a connection based on % of bandwidth used so that all traffic would go over the unlimited connection 1st until it was flooded, and only then fall over to the metered connection.  This is totally different than the weighted round robin, or smart link backup.
    I found this 3rdparty pforum post that supports that vauge memory and suggests this was eliminated netweem firmware 1.23 and 1.3:
    http://www.linksysinfo.org/index.php?threads/rv042-load-balancing-options-from-the-manual-where-to-find.15512/#post-69948
    So I humlbly ask...  Is it possible to replicate this functionality with the current firmware? if so how?  If not, how to do roll back to firmware 1.23?
    It sounded like perhaps I could assigned WAN1 a bandwidth of 100000 (even though it's really 1500) and then assign WAN2 a bandwidth of 1 (even though it's really 20000) and the result might be the prioritization I'm looking to achieve...  but I feel like I'm stumbling in the dark at the point.
    Just FYI, I'm not at all opposed to buying new hardware to acheive this if it's not terribly expensive (ie. <$200).  I'd rather not, but I've got to solve this quick.

    Hi Jon,
    I Also have one of these routers.
    On the bottom mine says (v02) which means its hardware version is 2.
    I just got this one brand new for home as I have been using them for a very long time now. However I have been using them for VPN and now I am needing the same functionality as you.
    I am currently running Firmware Version: 1.3.12.19-tm
    If you login to the web management (eg 192.168.1.1) and go to System Management > Dual-WAN
    Down the bottom you will see "Protocol Binding".
    This is all I know of to send specific ports or applications via a specific WAN.
    I'll give you an example of how I am using it currently.. (BTW it seems to be working OK, But you are on a higher firmware)
    eg: WAN1 is more reliable than WAN2 which is a cheap unlimited service.
    So I bind port 5060 (sip), port 80 (http) and port 443 (https) to WAN1 so that my VOIP phone is on the good service and so is all web traffic.
    so all the other stuff can use the unlimited connection.
    Also, My current bandwidth settings are
    WAN          UPSTREAM          DOWNSTREAM
    1                384                       8000
    2                384                       10000
    And Under: System Management > Bandwidth Management you can also prioritize those ports.
    This may help you in some way, So maybe you can help me..
    Your post has made me not want to upgrade the firmware.. Can you please confirm that this functionality exists still?
    Thanks

  • RV042 & RV082 SIP AWARE

    Are the RV042 and RV082 routers SIP AWARE?
    I haven't had any luck finding documentation stating such.
    Thanks.

    RV042 and RV082 are not SIP aware.
    If you have VoIP phones in the LAN of RV042 or RV082, you would need to use Port Forwarding to forward the SIP traffic.

  • RV042 Gateway to Gateway VPN Losing network connection

    I have an branch office RV042 version 1 connected via ADSL with less that 5 workstations (Vista - Win7 - Outlook) and VOIP/SIP to our main office RV042 version 4 via Charter Cable Modem...Tunnel is Gateway to gateway. We are experience random disconnects to our Windows servers in main office through the tunnel. We have isolated it down to the VPN tunnel. Our internet connections have tested out good. Our main server is a SBS 2008. Is there any issue with the Tunnel between two RV042's on different versions...

    Hello MP:
      Thanks for the reply. I did doublecheck both routers and all the netmask are 255.255.255.0. On the insides of both LAN's, I can ping devices. On the routers, I can ping each other, but not any devices inside the Remote LAN.
    Most of the devices on each LAN are "digital radios" so they don't have any antivirus or firewall software. In addition to the radios, there are  2 computers on each LAN, each with the firewalls off and we disabled the AV software.
    Both RV042's are running version 4.0.0.07-tm that was dated Aug 19 2010.
    These were bought from the radio vendor and their tech support says the current config should work.
    Definately a head scratcher.

  • Disable SIP ALG in RV042 router?

    Using these routers for VoIP phones, the manufacturer says that SIP ALG must be disabled. I cannot find a setting for this.

    RV042 does not suport SIP ALG.

  • New FIOS customer with dropped VOIP calls and Internet connection

    I am a new FIOS customer. Got my 50/25 connection a week ago, switching from a TWC 6/1 connection. Ever since the new connection, I've had numerous issues.
    My VOIP (Ooma) connection constantly drops and re-connects during conversations
    I've had random Internet connection losses, which picks up again after a few minutes
    My home alarm starts chirping every once in a while
    I've contacted Verizon several times due to these problems and have received varying answers with no resolution of the problem.
    The first time I spoke with support, the tech logged into my router and changed the WiFi channel saying that would fix the problem. It didn’t.
    The second time I contacted them, the tech ran a bunch of diagnostics and said everything looked fine so it must be an IP address conflict with my devices, because I had a couple devices using static IP addresses. He said everythinf should be DHCP and the last two digits could not be higher than 99 (192.168.1.99). He said FIOS does not support 3-digit numbers at the end.
    So I changed all my devices to DHCP and ran some online VOIP tests. It showed a packet loss of 2-5% and MOS score of 1 (which is bad). I was still getting dropped connections, so I disconnected all devices and connected just one computer to the router and tested again. I was still getting packet loss.
    Then I called support a third time, this time the tech said there were no 2-digit IP restrictions and that he was detecting there was no UPS baterry backup for the ONT which was probably causing the problem, so he dispatched a field tech to my house.
    Today the field tech came (same guy as before), he took one look at the box and said it was too close to my Electric meter and the RF from the meter was causing interference to the FIOS connection and resulting in dropped connection.
    He moved the ONT to another location and said that should fix it.
    Well, I'm still seeing packet loss and low MOS score when I run the VOIP test.
    I don't know how much of what the techs are saying is true and how much is made up stuff.
    Has anyone had similar issues and have thoughts on solutions or likely causes for dropped VOIP calls and connections? Could RF be causing this?
    I thought going from a 6/1 Cable connection to a 50/25 FIOS connection would be awesome, but this has turned out to be a nightmare, and I may have to switch back to cable if the problem is not resolved.
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    Don't know where the packet loss is happening. I ran the VOIP test on myspeed.visualware.com and it shows a packet loss of 2-5% at different times and a MOS score of 1.
    The report says MOS should be around 4 for good VOIP calls.
    The Verizon tech who came to the house just blamed the electric meter box for RF interference and move the ONT farther away.
    My concern is that I'm getting different answers from different techs at Verizon.
    Regarding IP addresses. The Router shows a DHCP range from 192.162.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 as available for devices on the network. So, if I need to assign a static IP to a device should I use a number below 99 or above 151?
    Thanks!

  • Use of QuickVPN to access network behind a RV042

    Hello,
    I have a RV042, and all incoming WAN requests are forwarded to a network located behind the RV042.
    Internal IP range of the RV042 is 192.168.0.x (RV042 IP is 192.168.0.1, and everything is forwarded to SG300 L3 with IP 192.168.0.2), and some networks 10.0.x.x can be reached via the SG300 L3.
    This works fine.
    And from the "Diagnostic tool" of the RV042, I can ping all devices in network 10.0.x.x.
    I can connect to the RV042 using QuickVPN.
    I can ping the 192.168.0.2 interface of the SG300, but... I cannot reach the networks located behind the SG300.
    How can I reach the servers located behind the RV042, in network 10.0.x.x ?

  • Help Needed for Resetting VoIP SPA 2100 Codes

    Yesterday afternoon, I lost power to my home for a few minutes; until then my phone worked perfectly (for the week that I had it initially installed). I have the Earthlink TrueVoice program with a ZyXEL P 600 series DSL modem and direct Ethernet cable (NO router) to my ATA adapter (Linksys VoIP model SPA 2100). My computer is an HP Pavilion 8755C with Windows Millenium Edition. I have a standard (wire) phone connection. After the power was restored to my home, I tried to use my ATA adapter (Linksys VoIP model SPA 2100) to make a phone call, but there was a five-second delay between when I spoke and when someone on the other end of the line heard me. I contacted Earthlink through online chat and was told to do the following: Dial **** 877778 # 1 to reset the adapter. I did this and nothing positive happened (though I did hear a recorded English woman’s voice repeat the numbers I dialed); I did, however, lose the dial tone and was unable to connect to the Internet with my DSL. So, to conduct more online chat, I re-routed the Ethernet cable to bypass the ATA adapter; I was successful at restoring my Internet, but, obviously, I had NO phone service. More than 8 hours of online chats to Earthlink technical service resulted in failure each time. I swapped ends of my cables numerous times – no success. I removed the power cords to the ATA adapter and to the DSL Modem MULTPILE times for for up to 5 minutes – no success. The lights on the back of the ATA lit properly, but since the first time I tried the **** 877778 # 1 code, the Status light blinks and the light indicating “Phone 1” stays dark (yes, there is astandard phoneline connected to that port). I tried multiple codes to reset the ATA (re-coding instructions are separated by semi-colons): **** 877778 # 1 ; **** 877778 # 1 # ; **** 732668 # ; *** *73738 # 1 . I unplugged the power cord and Ethernet cable (to the modem) on the ATA adapter for about 1 or 2 minutes after trying to reset the code before reattaching everything (power cord always re-attached last). I tried each of these suggestions MULTIPLE times without success. One Earthlink tech wanted more specific information – the MAC address (which I was told is a 12 digit hexa decimal number that starts with zero). I told him what it was. He asked me to try a “ping” test; I was told to click on Start -> Run, type in cmd and hit Enter. A new window would appear and I should type in ping 192.168.0.1 and hit Enter. I never got to the “new window” because after I typed in “cmd” and hit Enter, I received the message “Windows cannot find cmd.” I was told to dial the code * * * * 110 # and to hear my IP address; I heard nothing. I noticed that the last time I tried to dial **** 877778 # 1, I was interrupted before I typed the final “1” because the recorded voice told me “invalid value.” Around 1 a.m. last night I gave up in disgust and went to sleep, disconnecting everything. I have now reconnected the DSL modem and made the direct connection to my computer (the ATA adapter is still disconnected from power and all connecting cables). I am not an idiot and I have some electronics experience (I have wired several home theater systems), but I have little computer experience (and none with VoIP) and right now I am totally frustrated. The tech support at Earthlink is virtually worthless. Please help (and please keep it in simple terms so that an ignorant individual like myself might learn – I need a nice step-by-step method (including times to wait between restarts, what cables/cords to disconnect and the order to disconnect/reconnect them (if that matters) to reset this device) Thanks from a neophyte who is not afraid to be honest and show his ignorance in this area of knowledge.

    hi,
    i have a SPA-2100 it's a Sipura, and it now asks for a password. I was putting all my settings in for voip provider and now can not get in my admin? i did try the 73738 and that did not work. I was able to put my providers sip and stun all in. is it i'm locked out from my voip provider? If so why would that be, because this is not their device, it's mine? but how do I get back in my admin or can the voip provider I put in, help?
    thanks
