Server Assignments and Usage of Voice Messaging Ports

 

 

Integration by Skinny Client Control

The phone system is set up with twice the number of SCCP voicemail port

Protocol (SCCP) with Cisco Unified

devices that are needed to handle the voice messaging traffic. (For example,

Communications Manager or Cisco

if 16 voicemail port devices are needed to handle all voice messaging traffic,

Unified Communications Manager

32 voicemail port devices must be set up on the phone system.)

Express

 

In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, the voice messaging ports are

 

 

 

 

configured so that half the number of the ports set up on the phone system

 

 

are assigned to each server in the cluster. (For example, each server in the

 

 

cluster has 16 voice messaging ports.)

 

 

On the phone system, a line group, hunt list, and hunt group are configured

 

 

to enable the subscriber server answer most of the incoming calls for the

 

 

cluster.

 

 

If one of the servers stops functioning (for example, when it is shut down for

 

 

maintenance), the remaining server assumes responsibility of handling all

 

 

incoming calls for the cluster.

 

 

When the server that stopped functioning is able to resume its normal

 

 

functions and is activated, it resumes the responsibility of handling its share

 

 

of incoming calls for the cluster.

 

 

Integration through a SIP Trunk with

In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, half the number of voice

Cisco Unified Communications Manager

messaging ports that are needed to handle voice messaging traffic are

or Cisco Unified Communications

assigned to each server in the cluster. (For example, if 16 voice messaging

Manager Express

ports are needed to handle all voice messaging traffic for the cluster, each

 

 

server in the cluster is assigned 8 voice messaging ports.)

 

 

On the phone system, a route group, route list, and route pattern are

 

 

configured to distribute calls equally between both servers in the cluster.

 

 

If one of the servers stops functioning (for example, when it is shut down for

 

 

maintenance), the remaining server assumes responsibility of handling all

 

 

incoming calls for the cluster.

 

 

When the server that stopped functioning is able to resume its normal

 

 

functions and is activated, it resumes responsibility of handling its share of

 

 

incoming calls for the cluster.
