[Asterisk-Users] Packeteer ? Edgemark ? How to not re-cable ?

[Colin Anderson]

As long as it is a decent 100mbit switched LAN and your switches are not
saturated with traffic, you should just be able to plug in the phones and it
will work fine, no prioritization is necessary. A 100mbit full duplex
connection has a potential bandwidth of a few orders of magnitude above what
a VoIP data stream requires. 

If your customer is just doing normal web surfing, telnet screens, Outlook,
etc there should be no problem.

A device like Packeteer is designed to shape traffic at a demarcation point
i.e. your broadband connection. It would be of little use to you inside the
LAN unless you bought a Packeteer for each and every station, which would be
expensive to say the least.

I have customer wtih 30 stations in cubicles but they only
have 1 rj45 per cubicle and that is for lan and internet.
I would prefer the voip to be on separate net connection for quality
purposes
but customer does not want to recable.  How to avoid voice quality problems
?
I have read about devices like Edgemark or Packeteer that
can prioritize voip udp.  Is that true ?  Do they work ?
Thx in Advance
