IPT: Clustering Over the WAN
•
Separate paths must exist from agent sites to each central site. Both paths must be capable of
handling the full load of signaling, media, and other traffic if one path fails. These paths may reside
on the same physical link from the agent site, with a WAN technology such as Frame Relay using
multiple permanent virtual circuits (PVCs).

•
The minimum cluster size using Unified IP IVR as the treatment and queuing platform is 5 nodes
(publisher plus 4 subscribers). This minimum is required to allow Unified IP IVR at each site to have
redundant connections locally to the cluster without traversing the WAN. JTAPI connectivity
between Unified CM and Unified IP IVR is not supported across the WAN in this model. Local
gateways also will need local redundant connections to Unified CM.

The minimum cluster size using Unified CVP as the treatment and queuing platform is 3 nodes
(publisher plus 2 subscribers). However, Cisco recommends 5 nodes, especially if there are phones
(either contact center or non-contact center) local to the central sites, central gateways, or central
media resources, that would require local failover capabilities.

In a deployment with clustering over the WAN, the VRU PG could connect to a local IP IVR or
Unified CVP, or to a redundant IP IVR or Unified CVP across the WAN. For information on
bandwidth requirements, refer to the chapter on
