Re: [asterisk-users] Bandwidth management and ADSL router
I've had good luck using a sangoma S518 ADSL card in a linux box. the logging capabilities are supurb (cought my provider not providing what they said they were and great for troubleshooting as it logs line speed and dropouts to the second). support is also top notch. once installed it looks to the system like any other interface. Since it looks to the system like any other interface you have the full power of routing, bridging, firewalling, iptables, neumerous queing schemes, etc. everything linux has to offer. It has served me well and is extremely flexable.

Re: [asterisk-users] Bandwidth management and ADSL router
A lot of ISP adsl modems aren't capable. But most should be. Just log in to it give it a private IP for your lan(192.X.X.X or whatever your using) then have all your computers use that local IP as their gateway address. If you have an ADSL modem which doesn't then simple get a router (hell a Linksys/Dlink $50 cheapy from wallmart would work) and have the ADSL plug into the router and all the stations use the router for their gateway. If you have a spare server or virtual server space you can use Vyatta (Vyatta.com) it is a free open source router/firewall/vpn/few other things. I've never used it in a virtual environment, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work that way. Also note that it requires almost nothing to run so you can put it on an old < 1Ghz machine and It would still operate just fine.

Draytek 2800 series routers have adequate traffic management on outgoing traffic to do a reasonable job. (There is a very little you can do to shape incoming traffic) However you need to make sure that the actual Internet connection isn't where the bottleneck is. Try making calls when you can guarantee that no other traffic is flowing into/out of each end.

m0n0wall and pfsense both do traffic shaping, which forcibly allocates bandwidth for your VoIP traffic.

Re: [asterisk-users] Bandwidth management and ADSL router
A lot of the ADSL CPE (customer premise equipment) deployed has basic QoS capabilities in a pre-set kind of way, but if you want to do your own DiffServ tagging the standard practice is to do Layer 2 Ethernet bridging to a more intelligent box behind the ADSL CPE. bilal ghayyad wrote: > Hi All; > > I discover that most of the voice cutting complain are coming from the > Internet bandwidth when we are connecting two remote offices togethor via > Asterisk or any other IP PBX. > > Anyone has an idea on a ADSL router that work as ADSL + Bandwidth division? > So we can resolve the problem of providing a guaranteed bandwidth for the > voice packets instead of suffering the voice cutting? > > Regards > Bilal > > > > > ___ > -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- > > asterisk-users mailing list > To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: >http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel: (+1) (678) 954-0670 Direct : (+1) (678) 954-0671 Mobile : (+1) (678) 237-1775 ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Brought over from -users, Please reply to the -dev list. I agree, lets move the discusstion over to that list as it has to be discussed there. After we reach an accord on how it should be done we will open up a issue on Mantis. I see this as being two distinctive parts that would need to be tied together: First: We need to make the selection of CODECS technology agnostic, There currently exist a facility for CODEC selection (SIP_CODEC) in the sip channel but not in others. Second: Discuss is this sould be an outside application that is called from within Asterisk or if it should become a function Set(CODEC=${OPTIMALCODEC(quality)}) available options could be: quality bandwidth license Any comments. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wai Wu > Sent: Wednesday, April 12, 2006 10:51 AM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Bandwidth Management > > I think this belongs to the development mail-list. > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Jean-Michel Hiver > Sent: Wednesday, April 12, 2006 12:05 AM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Bandwidth Management > > Andy Tan a écrit : > > >Hi Alex, > > > >thanks for the suggestion. > > > >Did some checks, and thought that I could set a global variable to > >track the utilized bandwidth. > > > >Wish that there are plans for support to include variables like > >SIP_CODEC in other protocols. > > > > > Actually this sounds like a really nice idea.
