IPT: Clustering Over the WAN
Centralized Voice Gateways with Centralized Call Treatment and Queuing 
Using Unified IP IVR
In this model, the voice gateways are located in the central sites. Unified IP IVR is centrally located and 
used for treatment and queuing on each side. 
 illustrates this model.

Centralized Voice Gateways with Centralized Call Treatment and Queuing Using Unified IP IVR
Advantages
Component location and administration are centralized.
Calls are treated and queued locally, eliminating the need for queuing across a WAN connection.
Best Practices
WAN connections to agent sites must be provisioned with bandwidth for voice as well as control 
and CTI. See 
more information.
Local voice gateway might be needed at remote sites for local out-calling and 911. For more 
information, refer to the Cisco Unified Communications Solution Reference Network Design 
(SRND)
 guide, available at 
Central site outages would include loss of half of the ingress gateways, assuming a balanced 
deployment. Gateways and IVRs must be scaled to handle the full load in both sites if one site fails.
