• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Anybody got an good voip troubleshooting guide

    Cisco? Avaya? Other? What issues are you concerned about? Voice quality? Signaling? Endpoint registration? Your question is too vague. If you want something all encompassing, you'll need a book...or series of books. Not a guide.

    ESXi 5.5: Standard vs Distributed switch for home use

    Licensing isn't a concern. Let's just say that large lab budgets are a good thing. Aside from financial roadblocks....would I gain anything from implementing the dvSwitch?

    ESXi 5.5: Standard vs Distributed switch for home use

    I'm a little confused on the benefits of moving to a distributed switch. Keep in mind that this is for a home server, so the number of simultaneous users won't be huge (< 10). Right now, I have 4 physical NICs on my server connected to an HP 1810. I don't have LACP set up for those ports on...

    Virtual network between friends

    Or, you could just use Hamachi. Set it up as a mesh network, and open the SMB shares you need. Whalla!

    Cisco ring notifier?

    Search cisco.com for TAPI Service Provider (TSP). This should do what you need.

    VoIP knowledge needed

    What is your current PSTN connection? I'm assuming you are using one of your T1's as a PRI...or at least a partial PRI. You would almost be better off procuring a business class internet solution from your local telco/cable provider, since a T1 will only give you 1.5Mbps total. As for your...

    Fax server/services/etc?

    A lot also depends on what your existing telephony environment consists of. For example, if you are running a Cisco voice gateway, you can actually configure a fax to email TCL script (vial T37), and use your existing SMTP server to deliver a TIFF image of the fax to the user's inbox...

    CUCM 6.1 and CUCME 4.1 SIP issues

    One last thing...do you have an H323 gateway configured in CUCM for CME? If not, you will need to configure one. You should also bind H323 traffic to an interface that has a route to CUCM. This is the IP address that you will need to configure as the gateway in CUCM. You also mentioned that...

    CUCM 6.1 and CUCME 4.1 SIP issues

    Any chance you could attach some debugs? Looks like you're trying to hit dial-peer 221 to CUCM, but we need to see why we're disconnecting. The debugs we need to see are: debug voip ccapi inout debug h245 asn1 debug h225 asn1 debug sccp event One last thing...do you have an H323 gateway...

    CUCM 6.1 and CUCME 4.1 SIP issues

    You're gonna need to elaborate a bit. I'm assuming this is an inbound call to a Unity AA, is that correct? Or is this just an inbound call to a hunt group? Are you coming inbound through an FXO line, or are you using a PRI or SIP trunk to the PSTN? Are you calling in from a CME phone, or...

    QoS vs Traffic shaping, what is the difference?

    QoS: marking IP packets in order to properly place them in the desired queue (RTP, voice signaling, etc). This allows you to carve out a dedicated piece of your overall bandwidth to reserve for these queues. Shaping: limiting the flow of packets that traverse a particular interface in order to...

    voip phone and sip using STUN (noob here)

    Port 5060 is the standard port for SIP, so it appears the Panasonic phone is using a non-standard port. Any way to change this in the phone's config?

    Clearwire 4G internet

    I've never used Vonage, but if they offer g729 instead of g711, you can decrease your bandwidth requirements down to 8kbps instead of 64. Even if your total bandwidth is remotely respectable (DSL speeds or better), you should be ok.

    Cisco router for home use...what to get?

    Wow...I didn't know my original question would spawn a debate. Thanks for all of the info, guys. Much appreciated. I think I'll check in to the 3725 to make sure my bases are covered. Seems to be the best $$ vs. performance that I can afford right now. calvinj.....I would be interested in...

    Cisco router for home use...what to get?

    Vito....thanks for the link....but why be an ass. All I said was that I had access to different IOS versions. Get off your high horse.
