Call Scenarios and Applications

2. Calls Across Multiple ECSs

This section presents several scenarios for calls routed, transferred, or conferenced across ECSs. Figure A-1 shows the VDNs, vectors, splits, and extensions for the following scenarios. Each ECS has its own ASAI link, but ASAI links are not shown in the figure.

NOTE:

Section 7 provides examples of calls between ECSs using UUI.
