Thomas,
I am by no means an expert in this category, but I have started working
with AVVID recently. You should look into Cisco's IPKeyswitch IOS feature
set. This feature set is available in 12.1(5) YD3 or 12.2(2) XB. The
IPKeyswitch functionality will allow a more feature rich environment for
your phone users.
By employing 12.2.2XB on your 2600 series router and adding an NM-2V,
2-2port FXO WICS, and IP Phones with power (either power block or
C3524-XL-EN-PWR) you will be able to make a very reasonable system lacking
some key features. You keep referring to using IP Phones, but then you also
mention regular phones in your original statement. Your 2600 is going to
limit your ability to deploy in that case. The minimum router you would
need is a 3640. You will need to set up all your dial patterns on the
router so be sure that you are very comfortable with doing this or hire
someone to do it for you.
You will need to map actual DIDs to extension DID, set up inward dial
maps and outward dialing maps, etc.
Good luck!
