IPT: Clustering Over the WAN
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.
  •
Carrier call routing must be able to route calls to the alternate site in the case of a site or gateway 
loss. Pre-routing may be used to balance the load, but it will not be able to prevent calls from being 
routed to a failed central site. Pre-routing is not recommended.
