SCN trunking and set up

[snowman50]

Hi guys
I am installing my first SCN with 3 sites.

I have the main site installed and working, voicemail pro working, onexportal, softconsole for reception.
I haven't installed site B or site C yet , next week hopefully.

Main site A

I have 2 IP lines pointing to the other sites
Line 17 to site B
Line 18 to site C
Voicemail pro.


Site B
Line 17 to site A main site
Centralised voicemail to line 17


SiteC
Line17 to site A
Centralised voicemail to line 17.

From what I have read I only need 1 trunk from each off the remote sites.
Is that correct or do i need to have another trunk on site b,c pointing to each other.

Also the soft console, will it see the other 2 sites extns automattically when they become live or do I have to open softconsole and manually assign them.

Thanks for any help.

That's correct. Trunks between sites B and C are optional.

Softconsole is able to see status of extensions from all sites. Nevertheless you have to add them to BLF manually.

Thanks very much for the reply.

Hopefully the onexportal port will see the other sites when I add them to the onexportable.
Seems to be straight forward..famous last words

You have to add the other two systems in One X Portal admin int face as additional CSTA and DSML provider.

Yes thank you very much.

That's what I read.....although.they did appear there when I first install it.
They came up as failed..
I was surprised they were there,,especially when the other system haven't been set up yet.

Maybe the SCN lines have been picked up by the onexportal.even though there aren't live yet.

I deleted them in case they caused me problems on the main site.
