Chapter 5 Integrating Cisco CallManager with Voice Mail Systems Using SMDI
Choosing a Configuration Option
• All VG248 systems connected together must be connected to a single voice
mail system.
• Verify that you identify the first voice mail port correctly on each VG248
device. See the “Identifying the First Voice Mail Port Number” section on
page 5-21 for details.
• The first VG248 per CallManager cluster should be set to forward MWI
commands to Cisco CallManager. See the “Forwarding MWIs to
Cisco CallManager” section on page 5-24 for details.
• You do not need to set the VG248 systems to forward MWI commands along
the Async 2 connection unless a second cluster or a legacy voice mail system
is attached to the end of the SMDI chain. For example, if you are using the
chained configuration in conjunction with the multiplexing configuration.
See the “Forwarding MWIs to Async 2” section on page 5-25.
• If a VG248 device is configured to forward MWI commands to
Cisco CallManager, you must identify the MWI directory numbers used in
Cisco CallManager. See the “Identifying the Directory Number for Setting
MWI on Cisco CallManager” section on page 5-26 and “Identifying the
Directory Number for Clearing MWI on Cisco CallManager” section on
page 5-27.
• All VG248 systems connected together should use the same “Message Desk
Number” value. See the “Assigning the Message Desk Number” section on
page 5-24 for details.
