I don't know the equipment involved, so what I am saying may not work. The short answer to your question is it can be done (with the right equipment)I will explain how it can be done and hopefully, you can figure out how to apply it. The outside phone lines will come into one office. They will connect to gateway which will convert the incoming calls to ip. Once this has been done. It is now possible to voip phone anywhere on the network and configure it to work. Which includes other offices. The seccond way to do this requires more equipment. This involves the lines connecting to your pbx. The pbx then has a connection to the voip gateway wich connects to your other office and it will have another voip gateway which will connect to pbx or some other similar device which has the phones connected to it. david On Tue, 15 Oct 2002, Apollo @ Carmel wrote:To make things clear:I have a very simple Lucent Partner II with 8 POTS lines and 12 extensions (Lucent Partner 18D phones) set-up. What it comes down to is I want to connect two branch offices phones using VoIP, so that they would be more like part of the office and I would not need to tell people to call branch office number. We are a small company, so my IT budget is laughable, so I am praying I can get this all done relatively cheap. People in that office can use their POTS lines, I just need intercom to go over internet. Hope there is a solution for that. Ron Jones said:I don't know how much this could be related to RH, but I figured there might be a opensource solution to this with some extra hardware. I have Lucent Partner II phone system with 12 extensions. What I would like to do is have 2 extra extensions be channeled via my 1Mb SDSL to another location with same connection. --- It would depend (among other things) on the communications protocol used by your SDSL service. Normally, whatever device is used to convert all four wires into IP traffic performs some sort of multiplexing/channelizing function. (As in the case of a T1 line, a multiplexer will separate the 1.544Mb line into 24 channels of 64Kb each, which is all that is required for voice traffic.) in your diagram "...Lucent Partner II ----->connects to something thast converts all 4 wires into IP traffic ---->RH server ---->IP tunnel to another location---->..." is the current voice traffic going through the IP tunnel? or is it split off from the multiplexer before reaching the RH server so that it can then be sent across the circuit switched network provided by the phone company? If not, what performs the routing function? regards, Ron -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list-- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
