Not just in VOIP but in traditional PBX networks as well. Its called Tandem
Switching. Once the conversation is packetized it is exempt from toll
charges. Everyone does it, thats what the tie lines are for.

I don't know why the TAC guy said that. I have worked for several
organizations that do toll bypass across the country. He may have been
referring to the need for some kind of 911 or 911E implementation. Maybe
someone can shed more light, but I know it is done A LOT. It is one of the
main reasons for an organization to implement VoIP. Toll Savings and or
messege unit savings.

Subject: OT: IP Telephony - Toll Bypass and Legal problems
Does anyone have any information on the legalalities for doing toll bypass
via ip telephony. Basically what I am planning is to have several Call
Manager clusters, Gatekeepers, and voice gateways. The voice gateways will
be about 1000 2600's spread across the nation connected to the local PSTN. I
want to route all company calls to the gateway that is local to the calling
area and have it leave the local pstn to avoid all long distance charges. A
TAC engineer at Cisco just told me that there are legal reasons preventing
this. Does anyone have any info on this. Also, if anyone has any experience
in doing a large AVVID implementation and would like to give some advice
that would be much appreciated. Thanks,
