[cisco-voip] MOH Multicast vs Unicast

[Bob Zanett (US)]

Mike,
This can be accomplished, even with a single MOH server.  You simply set one MRG up for multicast and the other up for unicast.  The main thing to remember is to keep your audio source the same.  Otherwise, placing calls on hold between locations will not get music but instead tone on hold - the ip or port (depends on how you set up your multicast) changes with differing sources.

Cheers,
Bob

Subject: [cisco-voip] MOH Multicast vs Unicast

Is it possible design a blend Multicast environment where the HQ will use primarily unicast from the Software MOH and remote sites use Multicast from local route. I was thinking this was possible by enabling just 1 multicast server (to be used as the spoofed Local Router MOH multicast address) and all other servers are unicast. Limit the hop count to 2 and setup the local routers according (with the multicast config and single file for MOH).


Best Regards,

Mike Lydick
