Hi David-

I second. Although encapsulation can have its own issues, one we see often is RTP packet rates not matching timestamps, sometimes up to 10% off (media/announcement servers are typical offenders). But that can be unraveled and is not a config issue.

Quoting "Hiers, David via VoiceOps" <voiceops@voiceops.org>:

Well... yeah, kinda-sometimes maybe.

If any network device has any code that is SIP/RTP aware, that code can be poorly configured or make a mistake. Hiding SIP/RTP inside anything else is one way to avoid being seen by bad configs or buggy code.

A VPN can't prevent backhoe drivers from digging up your fiber, but it can maybe prevent keyboard drivers from munging your packets.

It's not a guaranteed fix, but it is one more RFC-3093-ish card you can play that might help in some scenarios.

David

I don't trust last mile networks to reliably deliver SIP calls. I usually end up putting them into VPNs, TLS, etc.

VPNs and TLS make last-mile networks more reliable? :-)
