Excuse my ignorance here if I'm butchering some terminology. After a pretty successful roll out at our corporate office, we are looking possible implementations at some of our remote facilities that have old dying key systems. All our facilities are connected to our corporate office by Verizon T1 MPLS links. From a network perspective, they do have the ability to hit the Verizon cloud directly without coming back to our corporate office first. Verizon is our VOIP provider. Our desire is to send the RTP traffic from a remote facility directly to Verizon without coming to corporate first. We do not want to put any equipment at the facility, except the handsets. We want to utilize our central Sipx server(s) at our corporate office. Verizon says they can let the sip traffic go through through corporate, but then route the RTP traffic directly out the local port. This is the description from Verizon on how this works:
"The term we use for allowing the RTP media to flow directly from our VoIP node (SBC) directly to your remote office is called “Media Release”. The opposite of that is “Media Anchor” (aka hair pining) which requires the media to “anchor” to the IP PBX and uses 2x the bandwidth into and back out to the remote." Is this something Sipx supports? I tried Googling Sipx and "media release" but I don't get any hits. Maybe there is a different term I should be using. We have Cisco routers at each location if that is relevant. Sipx 4.0.4, sixbridge, Verizon VOIP, No firewall (not needed, private connection), Polycom 450s and 550s - bootrom 4.2.1, firmware 3.1.3C split.
