The new ISA / TMG from Microsoft is pretty good, but for pure speed I'd look to pfSense. Mike From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim Byng Sent: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 1:18 PM To: sipX Users Mailing List Subject: [sipx-users] Basic Traffic Shaping / QoS advice I have been using sipXecs with a dedicated ADSL line for a while now with great success. Call quality has been excellent overall, with only a few rare or minor issues. I have not had a need for QoS on this connection. I now have a need to set up QoS for 1) remote workers, and 2) a new install for a client with 5 users and 1 internet connection. I have been reading up on QoS and traffic shaping, but was hoping I could get a bit of feedback. I'm really just looking to get a better understanding on QoS and traffic shaping with sipXecs, not detailed instructions on how to set it up. All of this is new to me, especially QoS, so any info is appreciated. I would like to use existing equipment if possible, which is mainly D-Link routers and PAP2T devices for the remote workers and a SMC7904BRB2 router with SoundPoint phones for the new install. Sometime late this year or early next year we will likely be changing our firewall (currently ISA 2004). I was thinking of switching to pfSense or Untangle due to positive feedback I have read here. Also, Tony Graziano has also posted what looks to be very helpful info about how to get sipXecs working with pfSense, including QoS settings, which is a plus. Again, I'm just really looking to get a better handle on how to best set up QoS for sipXecs. Any feedback is appreciated. _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-users sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
