Hi. We are getting a cisco phone system. The call managers and vm servers will need to support a remote site connected to our main campus via 2 T-1 that will be used to transport packet voice and an 8MB link for other data. The call mgrs will be located on the main campus. The plan is to define two scopes on the call mgr. One for the main campus and the other for the remote site. Using the DHCP helper service on the router at the remote site, we are going to proxy dhcp requests to the call mgrs and obtain an IP for the phones at the remote site from the second scope. Will this work?
I don't think so. Since the links between the sites are layer 3 links, this means that the phones on the remote site and the phones on the main campus have to be on different subnets. If they share the same DHCP server, there won't be way to define a unique scope for use soley by the remote site right?
Can someone share some insights with me?
