Help with dual IP gateways
Currently my LAN is connected to the internet via DSL. The FreeSWITCH box is on this subnet. To save money, I am moving the data portion of my LAN to a new ISP and I want to segregate the VOIP to another ISP. I am tired of having a bad VOIP connection during lengthy downloads. My VOIP and FreeSWITCH skills are minimal. I have used FreeSWITCH for over a year in a home/business environment. The only reason it is working is with the help of this list. My knowledge of IP is similar. I do not know how to setup a LAN with two gateways with all nodes seeing one another. I do want to be able to call out via FreeSWITCH from a softphone on the data portion of the new LAN. A friend suggested I need a dual ported WAN firewall/router with load balancing to enable all the nodes to be on the same subnet. Can anyone help me with suggestions? Is there a consultant I can hire to help with this? Thanks, Lars
The easiest way to accomplish this is to have two NIC's in the FS-server. One NIC connected to the Internet - to the provider that you want to route VoIP over. And the other NIC connected to the local LAN. Instead of configuring the "normal" default GW in the network, you use the default GW for the other provider. This way you will be able to place calls, and it will be routed on the other connection - actually all Internet traffic on the FS-box will use the VoIP-specific Internet provider. /Peter ________________________________________ Från: freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org [freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org] för Lars Zeb [larclap@yahoo.com] Skickat: den 15 augusti 2011 18:23 Till: 'FreeSWITCH Users Help' Ämne: [Freeswitch-users] Help with dual IP gateways Currently my LAN is connected to the internet via DSL.

hi lars, what you need is bandwidth management and QoS features in your router. i changed my router firmware with DD-WRT and tailored the ff: 1. SIP and esp RTP are given top priority for transmission 2. Web traffice are given lesser priority, P2P the last priority 3. ACK packets are also given top priority to prevent download overflow using scripts I found in the web. another option is to use VLAN to segregate your network. Data VLAN goes to one router and the Voice VLAN to another router. -nandy On Tue, Aug 16, 2011 at 12:23 AM, Lars Zeb <larclap@yahoo.com> wrote:

more ... QoS (DSCP) values must be set to prioritize voice packets in the Internet. -nandy On Tue, Aug 16, 2011 at 7:21 AM, Nandy Dagondon <gcd@i.ph> wrote:

I worked a year on this and was planning to put it on the wiki. Does this help: I have 2 DSLs, 1 static, 1 dynamic, FS is on a Mac mini with only 1 nic. The router does dual wan/load balancing. And by golly.... FS can auto switch between DSL lines when one has a problem. Wondering if this info is worth my time putting on the wiki, I did the OS X page and rewrote other stuff and it took weeks. But if there is interest I will do it.
