Figure 4 Trunk-based Voicemail Server
Line-based voicemail servers
Line-based voicemail servers cannot directly communicate with the MCP network. A Line Gateway, also known as an analog station gateway, is required for the MCP to interwork with a line-based voicemail server.
Similar to interworking with trunk-based voicemail servers, an SMDI terminal server is to exchange data between the MCP and the legacy voicemail server. However, the SMDI links are used to both send and receive data regarding the storage and retrieval of voicemail from the line-based voicemail server to the MCP network. Figure 5 shows a network view of the MCP interconnection with a line-based third-party voicemail server.
