Networking issue with two MICS 1

[chirkware]

I have two MICS (Site A = 7.0 and Site B = 7.1) that are connected via T1. Each has its own Call Pilot 150 who's AA answers incoming calls. PRI Enabler on each side. All works fine with one exception:

If I dial into Site B, and attempt to dial an extension on Site A, I get "You have entered an invalid extension".

Dialing into Site A, I can dial an extension on Site B with no problem.

Phones on either side can call the other side by extension with no problems. Also, I can set CFNA and CFB to extensions on opposite sites and they work with no problem.

Site A has POTS lines, Site B has a PRI circuit for incoming/outgoing calls.


Any ideas? It seems like I've done something right on the Site A side, but wrong on the Site B side. I set this up about a year ago, and this probably existed from day 1. It would not have originally been a problem since there were originally no phone lines on the Site B side. Site B has a PRI now as they run a call center there.

I'd rather learn from other peoples mistakes than have them learn from mine!

sounds like site B does not have the CDP built correctly so the Call Pilot will not reconize site A as part of the dialing plan.

Make sure you have Remote Access Packages with both the P-P an PRI in it.

enable network transfer on the CP150 on the problem system.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Photon33 nailed it...

On the problem CP150, under System Properties (looking at web interface), there is a "Enable Network Transfers" option, and it was unchecked.

Thanks for all the tips! Now on to fix the next problem!

Just found this post via search. I am attempting to network two MICS at the same location for a 230 room motel.

I am confused as to the exact way to physically linking them and what type of ext. dialing numbers I can use.

Several members have been helpful but I still have several questions. I would like to lset up a test sytem in house before I bring it to the customer.

Any step by step help would be great. I have worked on MICS for a long time but never networked them together however I could see myself going after the larger clients in teh future.

Any docs or help would be great. This customer wants this installed soon so I am trying to get geared up.

So far I have been provided this list to get started but I need step by step programing help at this point.

Any help you could provide would be great!

Thanks!

You will need to network 2 MICS together to get 230 analog station DN's
System A;
in the KSU you have 32 digital DN, add first 6 port fiber card you have,counting from the bottoum up
port 3=16 DN sta modual or 2 ASM
port 4=16 DN "" ""
port 5=16 DN "" ""
port 6=16 DN "" ""
port 7=16 DN "" ""
port 8= 12 trunks (3 trunk cards 4 lines, each card=12)in a trunk modual

second 6 port fiber card,counting from the bottom up,
port 3= 16 DN sta modual or 2 ASM
port 4= 16 DN "" ""
port 5= 16 DN "" ""
port 6= 16 DN "" ""
port 7= 16 DN "" ""
port 8= 16 DN "" ""
IN trunk slot 1 you will have a DTI card for(T-1/PRI ckt)
In trunk slot 2 you will have a LS/DS trunk card with 4 lines on it.Now you have system with 208 sta DN's(Digital).and 20 trunk. Now you need to network to the other MICS to get the other ports you need.
What Hawks said is correct in one sys you can have 224 sta DN's( all digital) and 8 LS/DS trunks or put in 2 DTI cards two T-1 =48 trunks or 2 PRI?
Now to use ASM's you have 11 fiber ports avalible which can support 22 ASMs = 22x8=176 analog ports(8 DN per ASM)
On to System B;

32 Digital sta DN's in KSU add one 6 port fiber card.

port 3= 2 ASM= 16 analog sta
port 4= 2 ASM= 16 ""
port 5= 2 ASM= 16 ""
port 6= 1 ASM= 8 ""
= 56

176+56= 232 analog DN plus 32 digital DN in sys A and 32 digital DN in sys B =64 digital DN
1 DTI card in trunk slot 1
Your Voice mail will use the digital DN and so will your admin phones.
I may not have this exately right but maybe it will give you some ides of what you need,and check my math.
