Currently have 6 systems linked together via IP routes (IP lines on each, Voice Networking enabled on all). We set up a full mesh, based on information in the Small Community Networking Job Aid.
Since the addition of the 5th and 6th systems last Friday, 4-digit dialing and IP dialing has failed on a daily basis, and the only fix is to reboot all 6 systems. Avaya support says they don't support a full mesh with Voice Networking enabled--that AVRIP creates a routing loop, and that's the cause for all the failures. However, if we don't enable VN, users in the branch offices lose the capability to search all employees in the Directory (a feature that's heavily used).
Further complicating the issue is the fact that we have four VM Pro servers in the mix, and 2 of the 6 sites share a voice mail server with another site (Centralized Voicemail). Avaya support is also saying that they don't support Voice Networking with multiple Voicemail Pro servers--that you'd have to host voice mail on one system and point all the other systems to it for routing and voice mail.
Has anyone had success implementing 4-digit dialing in an environment with multiple Voicemail Pro servers? If so, how'd you do it?
