[cisco-voip] Clustering over WAN - Design question

That means, if i have the following environment:


SITE A                          SITE B

Pub                               Sub2
         -------  WAN  ------
Sub1


Pub, Sub1 and Sub2 are all running ccm.exe, ICCS-real-time traffic would 
be 1,5 Mbps from Sub2 to Pub plus 1,5 Mbps from Sub2 to Sub1. Plus 
additional 1,5 Mbps ICCS database traffic from Sub2 to Pub. That means 
4,5 Mbps over WAN. Correct?

If i add another SITE C with a Sub3, then there would be an additional 
1,5 Mbps between SITE C and SITE B plus the existing 4,5 Mbps between 
SITE A and B and another 4,5 Mbps between SITE A and SITE C?


Another question: Do you have any experience how good the database 
replication will start again after a WAN-failure. Problem is that we 
have a remote site with SRST. Now there are frequently WAN-link-failures 
and the people are complaining about the feature-set in SRST. The idea 
is now, that we place a subscriber-server at this site and raise the 
bandwidth. Now with the given reliability of the WAN-link, i am fearing 
about other "symptoms" we will facing when the link is up again (broken 
replications or something like that). But also when there are other 
issues on the link like more packet loss.
