Hello Jeremy,<br>
<br>
We have implemented HA systems in the past for numerous clients,
call centers, etc, where reliability matters. We can definitely offer
you a bid on this, but I would like to speak with you a bit first to
nail down the requirements. What would be a convenient time and number
to reach you?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have a ton of Nortel MICS/CICS phone systems
and am looking for an easy way to integrate them.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Two questions arise:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

</span></span><!--[endif]--> Is it feasible to use asterisk as a Man
in the Middle for a T1 PRI system? The idea is to intercept outbound
calls from the Nortel PBX and redirect them via VoIP to another
asterisk box at another branch transparently(thus saving the LD cost).
Otherwise I’d pass the call on to the T1 for outbound processing. Our
Nortel is already PRI equipped, the PRI would just come from the
Asterisk box instead of the Telco directly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span
style="">2.<span
style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">
</span></span><!--[endif]-->Is it feasible to use asterisk as a Man
in the Middle for Analog lines? I’d be using anywhere from 4-12 lines
depending on location size. I’d like to do the same feature as
above(intercept outbound calls and redirect them using VoIP if they are
inter-office calls.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"
style="margin-left: 1in; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="">a.<span
style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">
</span></span><!--[endif]-->I’d also like the VoIP trunks to be used
for outbound calls in the case of PSTN downtime or busy. For example,
all 4 outgoing lines are in use, person 5 wants to make an outbound
call and it gets redirected to one of my T1 offices. I’d attach their
outbound caller ID to make it appear as the call came from that
location.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My inevitable hope is to reduce my analog
presense in smaller communities to 1 primary Line for 911/emergency
calling, and to get a published presense in the community. I’d then
beef up my T1 locations to handle more VoIP based calls. Currently
we’re using on the order of 30k minutes a month of LD just
intercompany, about 10k external (IntraLATA).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’d also like any insight or suggestions on
uptime. We’re a healthcare organization so 5-9’s is what we’ll require.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions on hardware configs(or better
yet, Bids!) would be appreciated as well. I don’t need VoIP capable
phones yet, but if the system works well enough we’d probably startup
our next location(averaging 3-6 per quarter) with a pure VoIP system
with Nortel fallback(again, 5-9’s is critical).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m located in Dallas, TX for any bids that
might include installation. We have a presense up to about 400 miles
west of here.<o:p></o:p></p>
