Objective: – To setup a Voice Network Design for a new office.
Description: – An office for company “XYZ” is coming up in a new location. The company wants an end to end VOIP Design (IP Telephony) to meet its business and IT requirements.
Requirement Baselines:-
Note: – Pl fill the below questionnaire to the best of your understanding.
- How Many users will be using the Voice Setup in the new Office?
- ANS – 10
- Will the voice PBX be installed in the Local Office or IP phones register to Head Office or Data Center PBX?
- PBX will be in (a)Local office or (b)Head Office or Data Center
- ANS – (a) Local Office
- If above answer is “Local Office” then will the local PBX require dialing over WAN towards head Office or remote office calling?
- ANS – Yes, for reaching the Head Office/Remote phones over WAN or MPLS links
- If above answer is “Head Office or Data Center” then does the local office site require voice availability in case central PBX is down or not reachable?
- ANS – Yes
- How many WAN and PSTN links will be required for Voice setup?
- WAN Links (MPLS or PTP)
- ANS – 1 WAN Link (5 Mbps) with connectivity to head Office for Voice and Data
- PSTN Links –
- ANS – 4 Analog PSTN (DS0) lines for incoming and outgoing calls to head office and other location during event of WAN link failure. (Hint – Generally for every 10 users inside office, we can take 2 to 4 PTSN voice channels. One voice channel may be understood as one voice call.)
- Pl segregate the voice phones in terms of
- Analog Phones
- ANS – 2
- IP Phones (Black and White)
- ANS – 6
- IP Phones (Colored Display)
- ANS – 1 for Dept. Head
- Receptionist phone (for attending and diverting the calls to respective phone/user)
- ANS – 1 for accepting the hotline number.
- Will the voice and Data connectivity provided on same ports? If yes, then what will be the Data and VoIP connectivity speed?
- VOIP Phones
- ANS – 100 Mbps
- Data Ports
- ANS – 100 Mbps
- What additional features/functionalities do voice users require? Pl describe against each requirement?
- Voice Mail?
-
- Yes
-
- Voice mail delivery on email?
-
- No
-
- Conferencing (3 Party or more)?
-
- Yes, 3 parties should be good
- IS Jabber for Windows Integration required for voice calling via local PBX? If yes, what is the number of “jabber for windows” software?
-
- ANS – No
- Is there plan any to expand the new Office users/IT setup ?
- ANS – No
- It is assumed that a single Server/Hub Room will provide connectivity to all the endpoints (nodes).All the nodes will be within distance limit of 90 Meters of LAN Cable (Server room to end points).If more than 2 hub rooms or distance of endpoint to Hub room more than 100 Meters, pl provide detailed connectivity requirement.
ANS – Single Hub Room with distance of endpoints with 90Meter from Hub Room.
-
- Is redundancy required at (a) WAN/Internet Link (b) WAN Router/Firewall (c) LAN Switch etc.
- ANS – 1 WAN Link only
- ANS – No WAN Router redundancy
- ANS – No LAN Switch redundancy
Proposed Solution:-
The Internet Router/IP PBX will provide the following functionality
- Will be local PBX and all the IP/analog phones will register to it. (Call Manager Express)
- Will route voice to head office over WAN link and over backup PSTN in case of WAN link failure.
- Provide voice mail functionality when calls to phones go unanswered.
- Perform BGP/IGP routing with WAN provider links (Data Links only)
- Perform H323 signaling with PSTN provider links
- Will act as DHCP server for all Vlans in New Office.
- Vlan Segregation:-
The Router will act as layer 3 gateway (192.168.XX.1/24) for all the Vlans
Total 4 Vlans will be carved out (Voice, Data, Server and Services Vlan).
Note: – for reference, we take 192.168.0.0 private address range inside the New Office network.
| S No | Vlan name | Vlan ID | Network ID/Subnet | Vlan Description | Remarks |
| 1 | Data VLAN | 10 | 192.168.10.0/24 | For LAN Users data traffic | For 10 Desktops/TPs |
| 2 | Server VLAN | 20 | 192.168.20.0/24 | For Internal Servers (e.g. – Print Server, Proxy server etc.) | |
| 3 | Services vlan | 30 | 192.168.30.0/24 | For Printers/Scanners | Optional vlan |
| 4 | VOIP Vlan | 40 | 192.168.40.0/24 | For VoIP phones. | May be created to support future VoIP integration requirement |
| S No | WAN Bandwidth per call | Max concurrent calls over WAN (or BHCA) | Total Bandwidth | Remarks |
| 1 | 16 Kbps | 4 | 64 Kbps | G.728 codec considered on WAN |
Key considerations:-
- The WAN provider needs to provide Ethernet drop (10/100/1000 Mbps) at the new Site. The provider Ethernet cable will directly terminate in Internet Router/Firewall.
- Solution sized for
- Maximum concurrency of VOIP calls over WAN = 4.
AND
-
- Maximum 4 Analog PSTN calls (DS0 i.e. 4 voice channels).Note – PSTN links will be backup in case of WAN link failure.
