SCN questions

[yeso23]

Hi there!

I will set up and SCN between to IPO located in diferent places. We order a direct connection between both locations and they already sent us all the Ip addresses and information we required for that (Separeted internet for just the KSU). My question now, is How to set this up??? I mean, all the information I have found on internet is pretty basic. If I want to have a different LAN port for each one (LAN1 for local network and LAN2 for the remote network) Can I set up like that?? How should I do it?

thanks for your help!

1) Call a qualified BP
2) Tell them what you want
3) Pay the price

OR

1) Take a course

This is basic IP Office stuff.

I'll give you a hint though, go to lines, create an h323 line, and press "help".

What I mean is if I can make a separated line for the local and the remote location. That's my question. I already know how to set up the SCN as you said AACON is a basic stuff and you can find that information. but I am kind of confused with the IP addresses in this specific case because we are having a complete different connection just for the KSU. For example we are not going through a router! which should be the the default gateway in that case??? if you are not going trough an Router??? is connecting the KSU directly to the internet modem. Can I set up this in the LAN2 separetely and in that way make a difference between the local and the remote access?

Thanks for your help!

To answer your question, yes, you can put it through LAN2. You must be going through a router of some sort for a data connection, unless it's s flat lan...which I doubt. I find it's best to draw these things out using visio or something; without access to visio, smartdraw can be useful.

Well I just try to do a small diagram of what need to set up creating the SCN.

This is still basic stuff!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

Ok guys. I really understand how to create the SCN when you are using just the LAN1 port. I have done this more than 5 times. As you can see in the diagram this company wanted to have that thing separetely directly to the modem. That's why I am confused. I don'tunderstand how I should set up the LAN2 and how the IP routes should be set so in that way the VPN tunnel will work just in that port. If you can just give me a small advice or just a little help. It will be REALLY apreciated. Thanks in advance!

your diagram shows a flat network, all you need to do is create an IP trunk to the other system with the IP address in it and plug it in.
That is if the network has really the same IP range on both sides as then the router / modem will pass any info right through to the other side.

It is far simpler than you think and that is why you get startled by it. The IPO will do all it needs to do if the network is correctly placed.

Should you have trouble then you will need to change the IP range on one side and use IP routes to make it work but I have seen setups like that work.

Interrupt the silence only if you improve it by saying something, otherwise be quiet and everybody will be grateful.

Thank You Westi!! That's exactly what I've been doing just assigning an IP address in the LAN2 port on each side that are in the same range and should work! but it's not working (Assigning the Static IP of each location). I also tested with just two computers (not with the IPO) assigning the static IP addresses and it didn't work neither. I imagine as AAcon said maybe the flat network is not up. Any other suggestion? Thanks a lot!

Can you ping the IPO on the other site and vice versa?
Can you ping the routers?
You should enter the IP address of the lan 2 (remote IPO) in to the H.323 trunk ofcourse and not lan 1 IP.

You have proved it isn't a flat network, so you need to find out what the network configuration is, i.e what address to use as a gateway and does the link between the gateways work with the correct addressing. You then need to change the IP address one of the systems as you can't route traffic that is on the same range, so only 1 system can be on 192.168.43.x

Hi guys!

Thanks for your comments and help.

What happened was that the "flat network" provider Screw it up. They were sure that the "network" was already set but then after 4 calls and argue with them it wasn't working they realized the installation was not completed...they were missing one part of the installation. SOOOO, I worked for two days there trying to make this work when the problem was not in my end. They went there, finished the installation and after that I didn't even have to touch again the settings because it was completely right. Both system exchange extensions and all the information without any conflict. Now, I'm getting a message that says "this SCN has some NON-discoverable Ip Office systems" and then it shows the IP address of the other end. I can make everything like huntgroups and calls between two locations but I had understood in version 8.1 you can see both systems in the manager. Am I missing some other step here?

Thanks guys!
