[cisco-voip] creating vs routing over ICTs

[Wes Sisk]

Yes.

2 clusters::
c1s1-s6
s2s1-s6


you could just create 1 ICT on each cluster.  Point to the first 3 
servers of the remote cluster.  Use a device pool that uses a cmgroup 
that includes the first 3 servers of the local cluster.

This will work in all "recent versions" (i'm going to say >=6.x, 
roughly) of CUCM where we changed h225d to only run on nodes in the 
device pool. 

In older versions (4.x) creating the ICT created h225d on all nodes in 
cluster1.  this allowed any node in cluster1 to initiate an h225 tcp 
session to clsuter2.  if cluster2 received an h225 session from c1s4 and 
that was not configured as an ICT remote destination then cluster2 would 
reject the session and call would fail.
