Voice Trunking and Toll-Bypass Trunking Using Cisco MPLS DiffServ-Aware Traffic Engineering
Overview Service providers need to integrate their packet- and circuit-switched infrastructures to save costs and offer data and voice services. One attractive service is the ability to carry voice traffic from central offices of facilities-based Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs). Trunking voice traffic using a data infrastructure is less expensive than using dedicated circuit-switched infrastructure that may be underutilized. Today's enterprise customers are also responding to voice and data convergence by actively seeking solutions that are both robust and low cost. These customers are increasingly using data networks to trunk voice traffic between sites for intracompany communications over Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
