CUPS to CUPS

[jmthewissen]

Hello guys.

I have two identical UC deployments, one in America, the other one in Europe.

Each cluster has its own CUCM and CUPS servers, I want bots CUPS servers to talk to each other, and user with CUPC in America to be able to see presence status and chat with CUPC users in Europe, and of course, vice versa. Each cluster also has its own LDAP. Everything is version 8.6 by the way.

From what I have read, this is called a federation, am I right? I have found some documentation on how to do this with other presence systems like OCS, but I have not seen anything regarding two CUPS servers.

Does anyone have a document or link that could get me started?

thx!

This is called a CUP Inter-cluster configuration and is separate from inter-domain federation.

Here's the chapter in the deployment guide on it; let me know if you have follow-up questions.

Very helpful, missed that part of the deployment guide, we'll get right on it.

Thanks!

Jonathan, one question, each of my CUPS servers has a different domain, and from what I can see inter-clustering only works with servers on the same domain, what would you recommend?

Hi

That would be interdomain federation then - see this nice long guide : http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cups/8_0/english/integration_notes/Federation/Federation.html
