Hope someone can give me insight on this.<br />

I have a VPN setup between to Sonicwall routers in 2 different cities. Everything on this VPN between locations is working just fine, but my Polycom Video Conferencing equipment wont connect to each other. I can ping both of them just fine either location, but when I call it seems to connect for half a second and drops the call. This happens when calling either direction.<br />

Does anyone have insight to a setting or something I'm missing, that is causing the issue?

Video equipment not connecting

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
