[cisco-voip] MOH Multicast

[CarlosOrtiz at bayviewfinancial.com]

I am trying to cleanup an inherited MOH Multicast Configuration. 

They have 2 out 3 servers enabled for Multicast.  (MOH Server config page) 
They also have entered hop counts for 8 different audio sources for BOTH 
servers. 

The Cisco documentaion states: 

"For Cisco SRST multicast MOH, only one audio source can be used, even if, 
for example, one out of 500 sites uses Cisco SRST multicast MOH." 
Another section of the doc states "An audio source is selected by 
inputting the audio source's maximum number of hops."

I interpret this to mean that on the MOH Servers configuration screen that 
there should only be one multicast audio source with a hop count entered.  
I also interpret this to mean that there is no reason to have 8 audio 
sources configured for multicast when the server can only be used with one 
source. 

Can anyone confirm what I have stated above?


On a related note:  Is there anyway to have a remote office play 2 
different MOH files for different sets of phones?  Our WAN does not 
support multicast at this time so I am thinking SRST local streaming for 
the biggest group of users at the remote site and unicast from Call Mgr 
for the other users.

Anyone who has done a lot of work with this stuff please comment.

Thanks,

Carlos
