Redundancy & High Availability:Network
Networking is a critical section of the system that is sometimes overlooked. An adequate network will avoid problems like congestion or disconnection.
Network Redundancy
TelcoBriges recommends the use of 2 Gigabytes Ethernet Switches for a Tmedia system.

VoIP Network
The VoIP network are secured interfaces that are use to send signaling and data packets over Ip networks (i.e. Sip, Sigtran, RTP). They are considered secured because it is not possible to control the Tmedia through those interfaces. TelcoBridges provides 2 VoIP ports on all its VoIP Gateway models.
A different subnet is required for each VoIP interface. The obvious use of the 2 VoIP ports is to connect one port with a private network and the other to the public network. A second application of the 2 VoIP ports are to connect to your providers using 2 different networks.
