odd BCM issue

This is sort of convoluted but here goes.

@ bcm400 at 1 site tied together with Sip trunks.

PRI into box 1 and all digital stations.

Analog stations fill up box(or BCM )2. No lines but Voip trunks in this box.

How do I point a DID # to an analog fax on box 2? I have looked through all the target lines and don't find my numbers. This is working on several other extensions, but I can't find those target lines either in box 1. These are just analog room phones. For example ext 2445 is in box 2, I can call 2445 or 8262445 and it rings just fine, but I can not find 8262445 associated with any target line in box 1 where the PRI is. This is on a system that was working this way until it lost a harddrive.

Also, how do I get from box 2 analog stations to the PRI pool for outbound calling?

Hope this makes sense.
 
You are doing something that is fairly complicated and requires about five major, non-intuitive things to be setup and working properly.

Assuming all that is configured properly, the way you get a call coming in on the PRI at Box #1 to hit a station connected at Box #2 is to setup the target line on Box #1 for the DID being called but instead of *assigning* the DN to the line you use "redirect" part of the target line configuration and plug in the DN# of your station at Box #2.

Again, if you don't have your trunks, routes, destination codes, private network target lines, and other bells and whistles configured properly then it's not going to work. But if by some miracle all that is done correctly then all you need to do is redirect the target line on box #1 to the DN# of the station on box #2.

Oh, and on Box #2 stations dialing out through Box #1's PRI... again, that's a big hairy mess to configure. You have to create your routes and destination codes on box #2 as well as fiddle with the "public network DN lengths" so it doesn't chop off digits since out of the box the BCMs are configured to expect a certain # of digits on an outbound public network call. But since you are routing your calls to the public network through box #1 which also needs a routing code for the PRI then you have to account for this.
