Verizon isn't supporting registrations are they? I think they are just sending the DID toa specific ip address. ============================ Tony Graziano, Manager Telephone: 434.984.8430 Fax: 434.984.8431

Tools for my toolbox is what I need right now. I guess I'm looking for that perfect mix of decentralized vs centralized. I need to have as little as possible running at the remote facility. This goes way beyond just telephony. With that being said I'm going to take the points presented by you guys back to my boss. Thanks for many of those points Tony. Given the price of a small FXO device, I think I can make the sell for it. I can probably sell it on the point of good PR (in case the circuit goes down) over safety. I know it shouldn't be that way, but it is for me. So, with trying to keep as much central as possible, if I configure nothing but sipxbridge at the remote sight, can a I keep calls to and from the PSTN from coming back through my central server? I would have the phones registering with and using voicemail on the central server. I would specify the appropriate sipxbridge instance in a dial plan for each group of users. Does that work from a network flow point of view? If not, skip the next paragraph. If the above works (and I've sold my boss on POTS backup), I need to configure the handsets (Polycom 450s) to use an FXO gateway if the MPLS connection/sipxbridge gateway is down. I'm slightly partial to the Audiocodes MP series. I got one working for inbound backup in about 20 minutes, so that is a testament to Sipx's ability to manage it! Is it possible to configure the Polycoms to use an Audiocodes FXO directly with their primary line for outbound calls if they can't get out through sipxbridge? If not, is their a minimal sipx setup I can use as a secondary sipx server that the handsets could use if the primary isn't available?
