Introduction

The following workshop describes the configuration of a be.IP plus™ as a telephone system with two xDSL connections by means of load distribution and permanently assigned SIP lines (no nomadic use).

It is possible to link individual VoIP connections to a specific WAN connection from firmware status 10.1.5 onwards. This is made possible via the mechanism for locations that is already used for registrations and also defines the outgoing interface for VoIP packages of a SIP connection.

This state is necessary due to the lack of other decision-making criteria, as the registrar IP address, ports, and DSCP values are identical. In addition, it should be taken into account that IPv6 is activated with only one of the WAN connections, as all operating systems and their applications such as, e.g. MS Windows are not capable of using several IPv6 prefixes in load distribution scenarios, and that this task cannot be taken over by the be.IP™ as there is no NAT either.

The GUI (Graphical User Interface) is used for configuring.
