VoIP Solutions

Hi All,
We are planning to have a VOIP solution in our organization with in coming months. We have 4 offices. Each office has E1 links between them. Our HQ has Cisco 3745 series router with 12.3 IOS running and other location has Cisco 3725 series router with 12.3 IOS.
I have some doubts, can any one help me.
1) Do I require any new hardware? If yes please specify.
2) Does my IOS support VOIP?
3) Is there any extra cost involved?
4) Can I use soft phone?
Regards

At all locations you probably have a PBX or Keysystem to support local office phones as well as the HQ site. Depending on the available interfaces on the PBX you would need hardware on the gateway so you can connect your 37xx routers to it. Normally connections are made through EM, FXS, FXO or T1 digital cards. These are VIC cards and you would need NM modules as well. For T1 you would need NM-HDV and VWIC T1 cards.
Your IOS does support the voip so you should not have any problem configuring voip.
Cost will be related to the hw that you would need to integrate your PBXs to the routers.
IP Softphone would need CiscoCallManager(CCM). Since you did not mention that you are expecting to install IP Phones at locations the above mentioned recommendations are tradition voip. If you are planning for IP Telephony support then you will have to look into:
CCM Server
CCM
IP Phones
And this will allow you to support softphone.
I hope that helps.

  • Driver to Dispatch VoIP solution

    I am looking for an end to end solution that preferably will do VoIP, data and video over cellular from a mass transit vehicle to a control center. The vehicles currently use radio. Being able to integrate this system into the current VoIP platform in the control center is optimal but a stand alone option would be considered. I believe the MAR3270 had this capability but has reached its end of sale/life.

  • Migrating from SIEMENS HIPATH 3000 to a CISCO VOIP Solution

    We've got a SIEMENS HIPATH 3000 PBX system with 15 to 20 individual telephone lines coming in from the telecom operator into the FSO card of the PBX
    We are planning to migrate to CISCO Call Manager and are also implementing an 3845 Router
    I would like to know if there is an interface on the router into which these 20 RJ11 phone lines go or is there another option
    How do I go about it ?

    Thanks pk, I knew of the FXO Cards. However I do not think there is any FXO card that allows for 20 RJ11 individual phone lines
    Because all the cards available at the link you sent me are all 2, 4 or max 8 ports
    VIC-2FXO 2 FXO
    VIC-2FXO-EU 2 FXO
    VIC-2FXO-M1 2 FXO
    VIC-2FXO-M2 2 FXO
    VIC-2FXO-M3 2 FXO
    VIC-4FXO-M1 4 FXO
    VIC2-2FXO 2 FXO
    VIC2-4FXO 4 FXO
    MRP3-8FXOM1 8 FXO
    Do you have the product number of any FXO card that has 20 FXO ports for 20 RJ11 phone lines ?

  • Spa8800 as standalone voip solution with ip phones

    Hi Everyone,
    I've  recently been handed a cisco spa8800 to configure and I'm wondering if  it is possible to use the device with a couple of spa941 IP telephones.
    I'm aware that the spa8800 can interface with an asterisk box, though the requirement doesn't list one.
    Is there anyway of achieving this?
    Am happy to provide more details and bounce around ideas as needed.
    Thanks,
    Matt.

    Hi matt,
    Unfortunately the SPA8800 is not a Call Control, then if you wish to use the SPA941 you should use it with IP Dialing (option can be enabled after Dial Plan Field).
    The SPA8800 can interface with asterisk without problems, we have in this community some guides to do this kind of configuration in SPA Phones, you can use the same guide and adapt to your needs.

    If that's the case you can use a range of port and create a NAT using your outside interface IP.

    Someone would spend a day typing everything up for you. If I were you, I would pick up a CallManager book. "Cisco IP Telphony: Planing, Design, Implentation, Operation and Optimization" There is also "Cisco CallManager Best Practice."
    Or call your local Cisco Sales guy, they have local SE's that can give a briefing of the product in more details.
    Most of know all the answers to those questions, but it would take any of us 2-3 hours to pull up. The books Cisco have out are great for reference and quick lookups for this stuff.
    good luck!

  • VoIp with Virtual PBX

    I'm Having an issue determining how to setup my configs for a VoIP solutions here is what i have.
    cisco 2811 with a 3550 switch, the company i work for uses a virtual PBX hosted by another company. i have to install the 2811 with the 3550 and 20 cisco 7960 phones. I have done all the DHCP pools, the trunking and vlans and intervlan's . but the main issue is trying to figure out how to setup the telephony service or do i not need to as the host PBX server has all the configs store on it and the original way was just plug and play in a sense with just a few modifications?
    If more details are needed i can provide.

    That is something you would need to find out within your company, if you have an ISR, you would configure CME
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/admin/configuration/guide/cmeadm.html
    You need to find out whether they bought that equipment to configure their own CME, or just to provide connectivity for that hosted PBX, and then ask assistance from them to find out what you need to configure for the phones to work with them.
    I would assume they want their own, but that's just my assumption.

  • Soft VOIP in a VDI Environment

    I've been tasked with conducting research and looking into adding a Soft VOIP solution into our VDI environment. Aside from a local call manager, what else would help us in the deployment of this solution? I know this is not a cookie cutter solution, but I'm beginning to put together a wish list and figuring out exactly what this is going to take. Thanks for the help.

    Ravi,
    Is 802.1x supplicant only available with the RDP display protocol? Is it not available with PCoIP?
    Not all networks are SGT ready and would not be able to benefit from the capability in the document from the link you provided. Is it not possible to have downloadable ACLs enforced by the AnyConnect?
    I have also been trying to find out if VM-FEX ports were capable of 802.1x and dACL, but haven't found anything that says it is supported. My thinking is that since the ports were extended from the network to VM, that it may be a possibility.
    Thanks,

  • VoIP on 2522 router

    hi dears. I am begineer. Pls tell me that is it possible to implement VoIP solutions over cisco 2522 series routers. I mean this series support this configurations for VoIp.

    The 2522 doesn't have any DSP's or voice ports.
    Sorry to disappoint you, but apart from routing IP traffic which could include VOIP packets, it won't specifically do VOIP.

    Hello giliadw,
    Don’t wait for a built in function because that’s no where soon to be seen in near future. You should certainly contact a hosted PBX provider they definitely provide VoIP solutions for mobiles. You can simply function all the SIP tools through their application. I can recommend you my PBX VoIP provider The RealPBX, they have a decent phone application and services

    Thanks in advance and eagerly await your answer..

    Hi,

    There are many factors and no "One fits all" solution. So in general: know your requirements, know your constraints, keep an eye on budget and do not forget to get early enough the proper skill level for your staff to operate the solution.
    Best starting point for technology related information would be to read through the "Cisco IP Telephony Solution Reference Network Design" guides.

  • Configuring Voip

    Hello,
    I was working with Microsoft products previously and now I have changed my mind to switch to cisco networks. My company has decided to go with VOIP SOLUTION as our branches are connected with MPLS network. The project given to me is this way. I have to connect 2 sites which includes my head office and branch office to use voip (both the branches are already connected using MPLS network). My head office is having a PBX which will be integrated with voip and my branch office is not having any kind of PBX system.
    Note: It will be a pilot project so please suggest a cheap hardware only for 2 sites if its approved then we will be buy good router in our head office to connect all other branches.
    1) What kind of cisco routers shall I buy for both Sites ?
    2) what kind of modules shall be intalled in them to start ?
    3) What kind of IOS ?
    4) Do I need to do something in my PBX ? for the integration in my head office ?
    5) Which books do you prefer as a beginner ?
    I hope the above mentioned scenario is completely transparent by any chance if you feel that i havent provided you the complete information dont hesitate to ask. Your earliest response will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    SKAK

    Hi,
    I would do this with two 2801, CCME feature, and cisco IP phones of your choice. What interface does the PBX have ? If doesn't have ISDN BRI or PRI, it will be hard to do a nice integration. Please search "CME" on CCO and start reading about it.
    Note: it is fundamental that you locate a reputable cisco reseller that can help you with the prices and availability of the material, if not with the actual configuration.

  • Series40 phones and VoIP

    This guide will concentrate on the open SIP standard based VoIP, because S40 does not have Java APIs to build closed system VoIP solutions (such as Skype, Fring, Nimbuzz ...)
    Nokia maintains a list of the S40 phones that have built in SIP VoIP capability in the firmware.
    Configuring the phone for VoIP usage
    There are three different ways how to configure VoIP in use in S40,
    Using the built in setup wizard which can be found from, menu>settings>connectivity>internet tel.
    The list of VoIP service providers differ based on which country you are located in.
    If you cannot find your VoIP service provider from the list, but know the SIP details for it, choose "sip settings" from the provider list and fill in the SIP details
    Some operator branded firmware have crippled setup wizard so that it's empty
    Configuration over the air (OTA SMS). The VoIP service provider providing the OTA SMS configuration needs to have S40 VoIP compliant configuration settings
    Manual configuration requires following steps,
    Download settings example (XML file) compatible to your S40 phone
    Download wbxml2 tool
    Modify the XML file to suit your needs
    Use the xml2wbxml.exe (from wbxml2 tool) to convert the XML file to wbxml format and rename the.wbxml to .prov
    Scan and connect your phone over Bluetooth to your PC
    Send (OBEX PUSH) the .prov file to the connected phone. 
    There exists a free tool for the manual configuration called n0kVoIP which makes the process easier.
    Other tips
    Default call type (i.e.. What happens when green button is pressed) can be change in menu>settings>call>call type settings. Setting it to GSM only, will disable VoIP for registering to the service.
    If the phone supports VoIP v72, v81 or v92 then VoIP works only over WiFi. If the phone supports VoIP v104 then VoIP works both over WiFi and 3G. 
    SIP URIs can be added to the contact in phonebook by adding 'internet telephony' detail into it.

    There is no operating system as such in the IP phones like 7960 or any other IP phone. It will have some firmware and config files which it downloads from the Callmanager while registering to it. All the call processing is done by the Callmanager. There is no special software running on the phones. You may like to have a look at the IP Telephony documents which have more information.
