packet sizes over PPP and Ethernet.
13.8 Some Network Considerations
When adding the SL1100 to a customers network there are many things to be
aware of. Before implementation a detailed network diagram of the existing
network must be obtained from the customer. This diagram may provide you
with information about possible network conditions that can prevent or hinder
the VoIP equipment from functioning correctly.
Firewalls
Another regular device in customer networks that can hinder VoIP
performance is a firewall. Most corporate LANs connect to the public Internet
through a firewall. A firewall is filtering software built into a router or a stand
alone server unit. It is used to protect a LAN it from unauthorized access,
providing the network with a level of security. Firewalls are used for many
things, but in its simplest form, a firewall can be thought of as a one way gate.
It allows outgoing packets from the local LAN to the Internet but blocks
packets from the Internet routing into the local LAN, unless they are a
response to query.
