In both cases, separation between subnets helps to isolate one type of IP traffic from
another, which provides both quality of service (QoS) and security features. For
example, users connected to the OAM subnet may not in any possible way examine
or affect call control and/or media traffic that flows in the separate subnets. This
prevents possible call tapping and/or hijacking and protects call control and media
subnets from possible denial of service (DoS) attacks that may be launched by users
connected to the OAM subnet.
