[cisco-voip] IPCC with Remote Agents

How is a WAN Outage addressed on the Enterprise product?  If you can't see 
the Enterprise server what's the benefit?  Obviously the redundant box is 
useful for seamless failover.   Can the servers be split?  Is there a RTT 
ping requirement?

In a nutshell, if you need redundant functionality for remote agents then 
ipcc express is not your product.  You really need IPCC enterprise and CVP 
to really get this in it’s fullest extent.

The calls come into each local site, the only calls coming into the 
central site are for the central site. Each call center is essentially a 
little island (different business units).

I have done a lot of crazy things with SRST before, having a different CCM 
cluster being an SRST reference, and using CCME as an SRST gateway. 

B-ACD is a TCL script for CCME that does Basic Automatic Call Distribution 
and queuing. HLOG is a softkey that lets people log into a hunt group (for 
BACD).

Jonathan, 

Sorry I don't have an answer to your question but was wondering ..... 

1) Have you done this before?   
2) If all calls are coming into the central location how do you get calls 
to the agents during a WAN outage?...PSTN? 
3)What is B-CAD and Hlog? I was under the impression that there was no 
functionality for agents during a WAN outage.  What features do you 
have/lose? 

I am interested in what it would take to set this up as our current setup 
is falling back to SRST but the remote agents only have dial in/out 
capability.

[cisco-voip] IPCC with Remote Agents
 







I am doing a design for a customer with remote agents... The CCMs and
IPCC are at a central site, and they have agents at remote sites
(across this hemisphere, Mexico, US, Canada).

I am concerned about the WAN (T1 between sites), and in the event of a
WAN outage, I want some method to provide some functionality for the
call center agents.

The calls all come into the local site (not over the WAN), and I want
to implement either hunt groups or B-ACD on the SRST gateway.

If I keep the gateways H.323, I can just do a CME installation at the
sites, and have them as an SRST reference on CCM (so, in the case of a
WAN failure, the phones will fail to the CME and get the B-ACD and
retain at least some call center functionality).

That way, in the event of a WAN failure, the phones will register to
CME, the agents will log into their phones (HLOG), and still get
calls.


So, here's the question:

Is this the best way to do this?

Would it be easier to use hunt groups with SRST?
