Task List to Create Integration with Mitel SX-200 PIMG Phone System
Before doing the following tasks to integrate Unity Connection with the Mitel SX-200 phone system using PIMG units (media gateways), confirm that the Unity Connection server is ready for the integration after completing the server installation, following the tasks in the “Installing Cisco Unity Connection” chapter of the Install, Upgrade, and Maintenance Guide for Cisco Unity Connection, Release 10.x, available at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/install_upgrade/guide/10xcuciumgx/10xcuciumg010.html.
1.
Review the system and equipment requirements to confirm that all phone system and Unity Connection server requirements have been met. See the “Requirements” section.
2.
Plan how the voice messaging ports are used by Unity Connection. See the “Planning the Usage of Voice Messaging Ports in Cisco Unity Connection” chapter.
3.
Program the Mitel SX-200 phone system and extensions. See the “Programming Mitel SX-200 PIMG Phone System for Integration” section.
4.
Set up the PIMG units. See the “Setting Up the Digital Mitel PIMG Units” section.
5.
Create the integration. See the “Creating a New Integration with Mitel SX-200 Phone System” section.
6.
Test the integration. See the “Testing the Integration” chapter.
7.
If this integration is a second or subsequent integration, add the applicable new user templates for the new phone system. See the “Adding New User Templates for Multiple Integrations” chapter.
Requirements
The Mitel SX-200 integration supports configurations of the following components:
Phone System
- Mitel SX-200.
- Software level Lightware 19 or later.
- A DNI Line MC330 line card to support the two-wire station interface.
- One or more of the applicable PIMG units. For details, see the “Introduction” chapter.
- The voice messaging ports in the phone system connected by digital lines to the ports on the PIMG units.
To simplify troubleshooting, we recommend that you connect the voice messaging ports on the phone system to the ports on the PIMG units in a planned manner. For example, connect the first phone system voice messaging port to the first port on the first PIMG unit, connect the second phone system voice messaging port to the second port on the first PIMG unit, and so on. Alternatively, if you have multiple PIMG units, you can reduce answer times in the event of a PIMG unit failure by connecting the phone system ports to the PIMG units in a round-robin fashion. For example, connect the first phone system voice messaging port to the first port on the first PIMG unit, connect the second phone system voice messaging port to the first port on the second PIMG unit, and so on.
- The PIMG units connected to the same LAN or WAN that Unity Connection is connected to.
- If the PIMG units connect to a WAN, the requirements for the WAN network connections are:
–
For G.729a codec formatting, a minimum of 32.76 Kbps guaranteed bandwidth for each voice messaging port.
–
For G.711 codec formatting, a minimum of 91.56 Kbps guaranteed bandwidth for each voice messaging port.
–
No network devices that implement network address translation (NAT).
Unity Connection Server
- Unity Connection installed and ready for the integration after completing the server installation, following the tasks in the “Installing Cisco Unity Connection” chapter of the Install, Upgrade, and Maintenance Guide for Cisco Unity Connection, Release 10.x, available at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/install_upgrade/guide/10xcuciumgx/10xcuciumg010.html.
- A license that enables the applicable number of voice messaging ports.
Centralized Voice Messaging
Unity Connection supports centralized voice messaging through the phone system, which supports various inter-phone system networking protocols including proprietary protocols such as Avaya DCS, Nortel MCDN, or Siemens CorNet, and standards-based protocols such as QSIG or DPNSS. Note that centralized voice messaging is a function of the phone system and its inter-phone system networking, not voicemail. Unity Connection supports centralized voice messaging as long as the phone system and its inter-phone system networking are properly configured. For details, see the “Centralized Voice Messaging” section in the “Integrating Cisco Unity Connection 10.x with the Phone System” chapter of the Design Guide for Cisco Unity Connection, Release 10.x, available at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/design/guide/10xcucdgx/10xcucdg050.html.
