The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

Cisco asa 5505 VOIP issues

Asked by mathews2001 in Voice Over IP, Cisco PIX Firewall, Network Routers

Tags: cisco pix voip vocalocity

I have a small office with a Cisco ASA 5505 , 3 users and voice over Ip from Vocalocity. they have cable internet that is 10mb down and 1.5 up. it seems stable. Their inbound quality is fine, but outbound is bad to unusable. Several times a day their phones go from green to yellow or red, then they are ok. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

per vocalocity we removed the SIP per this article
Disable SIP Transformations:#
Enter the following lines on any Cisco router or switch that is performing a NAT on outbound traffic - this will disable SIP specific transformations done on packets going through the NAT.
"no ip nat service SIP udp port 5060

Cisco PIX#

Cisco PIX Offical Support Site

Cisco PIXs general release software (release 6.1 and 6.2) has a limitation that does not allow SIP processing to be disabled for UDP. Cisco provides a maintenance release to allow the disabling of SIP processing for UDP. The specific release tested is 6.2.2.125. This load can be obtained from Cisco through their normal support channels.

Configuring Cisco PIX 6.X for VoIP traffic:#
Once the load is upgraded to 6.2.2.125, enter the command:
"      show configure

You should see the following lines:
"      fixup protocol sip 5060
"      fixup protocol sip udp 5060

To disable SIP processing, enter the commands:
"      no fixup protocol sip 5060
"      no fixup protocol sip udp 5060

Also, the rpc timer needs to be extended or voice path is lost after the default 10 minutes. This can be done by going to the enable prompt and configuring terminal and typing: "timeout rpc never-time-out" and hitting enter. Then save the config to memory and verify the value by typing "sh timeout rpc". It should be listed as 0:00:0

Configuring Cisco PIX Firewall Software Version 7.X#
In Versions 7.x of the PIX software, fixup has been replaced with inspect. This line can be found in either a global or interface specific policy map. A generic configuration will contain entries like this:
class-map inspection_default
match default-inspection-traffic
!
!
policy-map asa_global_fw_policy
class inspection_default
inspect dns maximum-length 512
inspect ftp
inspect h323 h225
inspect h323 ras
inspect netbios
inspect rsh
inspect rtsp
inspect skinny
inspect esmtp
inspect sqlnet
inspect sunrpc
inspect tftp
inspect sip
In the example above you would need to enter configuration mode via the command line and execute the following commands (hitting Enter after each line):
"      class-map inspection_default
"      policy-map asa_global_fw_policy
"      no inspect sip
