[cisco-voip] Quick Question About 911 Policy - PleaseRespond-Quick Response

Mon Apr 2 10:52:57 EDT 2007

I like the idea................ But I don't like the idea that Unity or
IPCCx has to be used.  What if, it's down for some reason and someone
needs 911.  If CM is down you know it..... if Unity is down, it could be
hours before someone says something.

In my previous position we had a serious problem with
this at hundreds of locations throughout the US and in
some states the charges were outrageous. What we ended
up doing was create a TP for 911 that pointed to a
Unity AA or IPCC depending on the cluster (prefix site
code), prompting the user to dial 9911 in the future
however if it was an emergency they could hit 9 to be
transferred to emergency services (if 9 was hit,
transfer to sitecode+911CH, hits TP of sitecode.911
which striped predot and out the local RL). Fairly
admin intensive but much cheaper then the alternative.
