Office Communicator Call - Edge Server

[rgimenez]

Hi,

We have a OCS 2007 back-end server to provide IM, call and video call by Office Communicator to our internal users. This works fine.

Now I have installed a Edge Server to provide the same functions to our external users. I have opened the correct ports on firewall and have created the correct registers in DNS. I only have activated the Access Edge Server. I haven't activated Web Conferencing Edge Server nor A/V Edge Server because I think these are not necessary to provide IM, call and video call by Office Communicator to our external users.

IM works OK to external users, but call and video call are disconnected when user accepts the request.

Is necessary A/V Edge Server to provide call and video call?

Thanks.

Raul

Sorry for the delay. Haven't been on in a while. The E/V Edge is required to allow Voice and Video from the Internal to the External. The A/V Edge must have a routable IP address assigned to it. The AV Auth certificate can and should be an internal PKI with the External FQDN of the AV Edge server (no SANS).

It is what it is!!
