Unity Design Query: Same extension in different Partition

eug-c · ‎09-03-2007

Hi,

I have a query where I have 2 remote sites with the same extension range:

Site A: 1231000 to 1231999

Site B: 7891000 to 7891999

I think there is two ways to do it, first in CCM and unity, to use 7 digit extensions. The VM and MWI should work.

But I'm thinking can we leave the CCM as 4 digit extensions and use the two seperate VM profile's mask as 123XXXX and 789XXXX. I am able to leave a VM to the correct mailbox, but the MWI doesn't work.

I think the VM port must be able to reach both Site A and Site B phone partition, but the CSS is sorted in order, therefore it would never reach Site B partition.

Did I missed out something? Have anyone tried this before?

Thanks!

Eugene

Anyone has any experiences using Unity between 2 sites with similar extensions?

Thanks,

Your concerns are very valid. Take a look at the following:

I have heard rumors that a future Unity release will be Partition and Calling Search Space aware which will alleviate this kind of problem.

Hope the new release would solve this issue alright.
