Our firm has nearly unlimited resources when it comes to realisticly possible/sensible redundancy. For example, I have voice spans from four carriers - even the LEC is delivered from diverse COs. We have two OC12's - one from SBC/ATT and one from MCI/Verizon... I could go on...

Anyway, that sets a scenario of redundancy expectation.

While we ar MerMail today, out NetSvcs group has no opinion since we don't even touch the network.

Now add CallPilot 4.x on the new 1005rp platform. The network redundancy is probably no worse than MerMail's AML connectivity. However, now it's "network" and my network peers are now involved.

Question: How do I respond when essentially, they have engineered a network that has two of everything in hot standby...and I am installing a a switch linking CP to the PBX with the failover method limited to "if it breaks, manualy replace it"

However this sounds, trust me I am aware that the switch may be the least likely thing to break...but still...
