Thank you for the quick response Giant2.<br />
<br />
The sales representative at Comcast gave me the wrong config of how Comcast is to provide phone service to the customer.<br />
<br />
It is not a VOIP connection, rather an analog/digital modem. So voip traffic will not exist inside of the building. So, no need of a firewall to secure phones.<br />
<br />
You answered my question and gave me great advice. <br />
<br />
I am rewarding you the 500 points. Thank you. Netsyssol

Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
I have a project for a very small (2 Win 7 computers, 1 network printer and 2 IP phones with 3 lines) to design and build.<br />
<br />
The computers will share a small fraction of data locally. The majority of the data will be processed, saved and backed up on a proprietary file management software on an internet server located off site.<br />
<br />
Can I use 1 firewall to manage traffic of both voip and data without any problems?<br />
<br />
Do I need to use 2 CAT6 cables to physically separate voice and data traffic, or employ 2 vans and only one wire?<br />
<br />
Comcast is the Internet service provider. <br />
<br />
Thank you in advance,<br />

IP Telephony/Data Network Integration

Telecommunication occurs when the exchange of information between two or more entities (communication) includes the use of technology. Communication technology uses channels to transmit information (as electrical signals), either over a physical medium (such as signal cables), or in the form of electromagnetic waves. The word is often used in its plural form, telecommunications, because it involves many different technologies.

Telecommunications

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

Network security consists of the policies adopted to prevent and monitor authorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. Network security involves the authorization of access to data in a network, and covers a variety of computer networks; conducting transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks can be private, such as within a company, and others which might be open to public access.
