Receiving Internet calls from a remote Strata CS Server

Incoming calls from a remote Strata CS Server appear like a local call. For example, caller ID name and number are delivered just as for regular internal or external calls, allowing users to identify and call back remote users easily.

Codec use with IP Gateway connections

When connecting two Strata CS Servers over an IP Gateway connection, the Servers must use the same codec lists. Otherwise, audio failure can occur during calls. See “Modifying Strata CS IP codecs” on page 5-22 for more information.

Overview of creating an IP Gateway connection

Setting up an IP Gateway connection involves the following steps. It is important to do them in the correct order:

1.On each Server, create an IP Gateway that points to the other Server. See “Creating an IP Gateway” on page 13-9.

2.On each Server, create one or more IP gateway dialing services to cover the types of Internet calling you want to perform. See “Creating IP Gateway dialing services” on page 13-13.

You can create a new IP Gateway while defining a gateway dialing service, by clicking the IP Gateway button (shown at right) in the dialing service dialog box.

3.To unify two Servers so that all users appear to be local

users, create an IP Gateway user for each remote extension. See “Creating Gateway users to unify two Strata CS Servers” on page 13-17.

Using the IP Gateway Configuration Worksheet

Appendix C of this manual provides a worksheet to help you set up multiple Strata CS Servers for an IP Gateway connection. Use the IP Gateway Configuration Worksheet to help you plan consistent access codes for dialing services, and avoid conflicts such as overlapping extensions or passwords.
