it is all running on the same ethernet segment.  There is enough bandwidth
on our LAN that we are still only doing L2 switching so we dont do any QoS.
I have a phone that travels with me and occasionally it 'burps' and I get a
little garbled conversation but no worse than my cell phone.

We use g711 internally, since our LAN isn't saturated it works fine.  I
really like GSM so for any traffic via the internet I try to force GSM.
