Centralized VMS/AA 5
Centralized VMS/AA is implemented using the Group Calling enhancement and
UDP routing. Integrated VMI calling groups are defined on the VMS hub system
and each remote system.
From the user’s point of view, the routing is transparent. Users that travel between
locations dial the same extension number from any location in the private network
to reach the voice messaging system.
The integrated VMI calling group on the VMS hub system contains the voice
messaging system ports. The integrated VMI calling groups on each remote
system receive overflow, coverage, and voice mail retrieval calls and route them
to the integrated VMI group on the VMS hub system.
Routing to the centralized VMS/AA is done by assigning a single non-local
extension as a member of the integrated VMI calling group at each remote system
sharing the centralized VMS/AA. This extension has no corresponding physical
extension and is referred to as the
VMI conversion number
in this guide.
NOTE:
The VMI conversion number should not be published. This prevents users
from dialing the VMI conversion number to retrieve messages, which can
result in improper operation of the VMS/AA application.
