color:#1F497D'>I think in the scenario, you have to assume the agent at least
has network connectivity to the UCCX/CUCM servers.  Otherwise, they cannot be
in a ready status.  Also, if you are going to use AAR, I would assume you have
a PSTN gateway at the remote site, otherwise where would you reroute to?  Also,
as Jason said, if the agents don’t have DID, you would at least have to have
available DIDs (1 per agent on the remote gateway) that you could translate the
agent’s ext in AAR and use translations again inbound at the remote site  to
route to the agent via the PSTN.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

function.  CCX is simply calling the agent via CUCM.  I don’t think CCX cares
about how the call gets to the agent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

am proficient in contact center, but not in AAR.  I would like

<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone designed the use of AAR with callcenter agents
that are dispersed over multiple locations. I can not see how this can designed
effectively. Basics are you have 4 locations, all locations have agents, all
locations also have standard users. The premise is to have AAR help limit
bandwidth (reroute when necessary) but with agents this would not be a desired
action as they do not have DID. Technically you could put all Callcenter
resource in 1 location but that location would be spread over the WAN links and
would defeat the purpose. Alternate plan would be to only enable AAR for the
standard users and drop the bandwidth limits to leave a larger buffer for
Agents.<o:p></o:p></p>
