Chapter 3: Network Requirements
Network Assessment
Perform a network assessment to ensure that the network will have the capacity for the
expected data and voice traffic, and that it can support for all applications:
● SIP,
● DHCP,
● HTTP/HTTPS, and
● Jitter buffers
Also, QoS support is required to run VoIP on your configuration. For more information, see
Appendix B: Related Documentation
and the QoS parameters L2QAUD, L2QSIG, DSCPAUD,
and DSCPSIG in Table 11:
9600 Series SIP IP Telephones Customizeable System
Parameters.
Hardware Requirements
To operate properly, you need:
● Category 5e cables designed to the IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard, for LAN powering,
● TN2602 IP Media Processor circuit pack. Sites with a TN2302 IP Media Processor circuit
pack are strongly encouraged to install a TN2602 circuit pack to benefit from the increased
capacity.
● TN799C or D Control-LAN (C-LAN) circuit pack.
!
Important:
Important: IP telephone firmware Release 1.0 or greater requires TN799C V3 or greater
C-LAN circuit pack(s). For more information, see the Communication Manager
