We are currently moving away from a wide-spread Cisco CallManager deployment to Asterisk. For many of our small sites we have the routers configured for what Cisco calls SRST so if we have a WAN failure, the router acts as a SCCP registrar. We are converting to SIP, and from what I can tell Cisco wants a license for each router to run SRST over SIP...<br>
<br>So my question to the group is: What are you doing for survivability in these small (6-30 phone) sites? I would like to avoid deploying a lot of servers if at all possible. The requirements would be a simple, easy to manage device for the phones to register to in case of WAN failure with 1 or 2 POTS lines attached (also used for 911 calls from that site).</blockquote>
<div><br>What happens for IT when WAN fails ?<br>Are people still able to work or not ?<br><br>If they are, then it should be possible to use current routers (if they have such POTS interfaces) as Media gateways and have a local resource to act as a backup Asterisk server.<br>
<br>If they are not, having IT and Telephony to share the same backup WAN is advisable.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
