- Egress QoS List

Access control lists define which packets should be forwarded or denied access to the network. QoS lists change the DSCP and 802.1p priority of routed packets according to the packet characteristics.

Policy-based routing. The G250/G350 features policy-based routing, which uses a policy list structure to implement a routing scheme based on traffic source, destination, type, and other characteristics. You can use policy-based routing lists (PBR lists) to determine the routing of packets that match the rules defined in the list. Common applications include separate routing for voice and data traffic, routing traffic originating from different sets of users through different Internet connections (Internet Service Providers), and defining backup routes for defined classes of traffic.

RTP Header Compression. The G250/G350 saves up to 60% of the bandwidth necessary using RTP compression. It also enhances the efficiency of voice transmission over the network by compressing the headers of Real Time Protocol (RTP) packets, thereby minimizing the overhead and the delays involved in RTP implementation.

TCP Header Compression. The G250/G350 uses Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header compression to reduce the amount of bandwidth needed for non-voice data. TCP header compression can be applied either as part of RTP Header Compression via IPCH, or using the Van Jacobson method defined in RFC 1144.

Inter-Gateway Alternate Routing (IGAR). The G250/G350 uses IGAR as a means to use the PSTN as an alternative to the WAN interface under certain definable conditions. In providing an alternate routing mechanism, IGAR preserves the internal makeup of the call so that the call can be successfully terminated to its original internal destination.

Routing features

Both the G250 and the G350 have an internal router. You can configure the following routing features on the router:

Interfaces

Routing table

VPN

GRE tunneling

DHCP and BOOTP relay

DHCP server

DHCP client

Broadcast relay

ARP table

ICMP errors
