Networking via Internet VPN

MaltMan1 · November 17th, 2004, 12:25 PM

does anyone have any experience and or suggestions on networking sites using Internet VPN. There are 2 sites in Asia that will be getting G700's/S8300. The Hong Kong site will be the primary and Tokyo the backup. There will be a communication's manager in the U.S. (NOT S8700.. just comm mngr 2.1). We want each site to be able to use eachother for least cost routing. Does anyone have experience or suggestions on if a VPN connection is sufficient?

the question isnt about VPN as much as it should be about the reliablity of the VPN and the QOS you can get through it. We have sites running via Frame Relay and VPN without issues.

well we aren't using any frame relay or pt. to pt. connections. each location has a T1 out to the Internet and our network admin built the VPN tunnel between the offices. I'm getting mixed info on if there can be any qos for a vpn connection since it goes over the Internet. The other question with that is how is the carrier going to know what is a voice packet so it can send it across the internet properly?

The carrier has no idea what the packet is, nor do they care. you take your chance when using the internet.
