IPO SCN

[nanoo223]

I have a IPO setup for SCN with P2P, the equipment is as follows;

site A-IPO406 sw 3.1 + External Expansion + VMPRO
Site B-SOE 4T+4P+8DS

now site B needs more users (expansions), can you tell me if I can install another (one more unit) similar SOE with different IP address in the same network or can i up grade everything on site B to a new IPO500 4.2?
with this up grade can the system on site B works as before, sharing VMPRO + Trunk and everything else from site A? because software on the IPO500 is going to be the latest version

thanks

The SOE is limited to 28 users so there is no expansion on that one

If you use an ip500 then you need to upgrade the 406 as high as possible

Do you have a 406V2 or a V1 ?

The V2 has 8 DS ports on the front
On the back there is a sticker and tells you the PCS level
If PCS 8 and higher you can upgrade it to the latest version

If all is not true then go to 3.2
A SCN will work but only with the features of the lowest software level !

there is no problem adding a 2nd SOE to the SCN
this will result in a 3 site SCN (even though the 2nd SOE is on the Same network as the 1st)

all 3 systems can (& should) use the same centralised VM

One issue you may have is that users cannot be in groups on different switches ( unless you have V4+ & the advanced network licence)

long term upgrading to an IP500 would be wiser.
