IPDesktopSoftphone and Voice VLAN

Hi guys,

Until IPDS R9, there was an Alcatel MUX Intermediate Miniport Driver which we could use to tag voice packets with one vlan, and data packets with another.

After R9, this is not possible anymore, and the Driver does not work on 64bit OS.

How is everybody doing QoS on Softphones? And in the security meaning, how is everybody putting IPDS voice packets in a separated vlan?

Thank you!

I was using MUXIM also to forward packets to Voice VLAN for the 4059 IP (altogether with windows routing settings).
For 64 bit you can take the Visual Studio project from here and compile the driver for 64bit environment:

The real problem is to sign the driver. One way, depending on your domain policies is to use private signature and add it as a root certificate accepted by Win 7 or Win 8.

Basically the solution itself is not very secure and I think this is the reason why it was dropped. I did not see any official statement why this was discontinued.

And do you have any suggestions? Like QoS policies, or something like that ?

No, sorry.
