Adding a Branch Office

g. Install and provision the local trunks (the XUT, PRI, and DTI

cards).

h. If applicable, configure Abbreviated Dialing. See

"Abbreviated

Dialing configuration" (page 337)

.

i.

Provision the Virtual Trunks. Refer to IP Peer Networking
Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313)
.

When configuring NRS, enable the Network Connection Service
(NCS). Ensure that each Branch User ID (BUID) is entered in
the Branch Office numbering plan so it points to the main office.
For survivability reasons, ensure that the Signaling Server and
the media cards use the same H.323 ID. This ensures that the
Branch User will be properly redirected to the main office. Refer
to

"Adding the Branch Office endpoints to the NRS database"

(page 260)

for more information.

j.

Install MG 1000B telephones, starting with

"Installing and

configuring IP Phones" (page 264)

.

To provision IP Phones as Configured Desktop Services, in
a network with an MCS 5100, refer to IP Peer Networking
Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313)
.

Adding a CS 1000 Release 5.0 Branch Office to a Branch Office with
a previous software release

The CS 1000 Release 5.0 Branch Office feature requires a main office
running Nortel Communication Server 1000 Release 4.5. Therefore, the
main office must be upgraded to CS 1000 Release 5.0 before a CS 1000
Release 5.0 Branch Office can be added.

Two options are available when an existing Succession 3.0 Branch Office or
CS 1000 4.0 network requires the addition of a new Branch Office. These
options are:

1. Upgrade the entire network to CS 1000 Release 5.0, and then add

the new Branch Office (see

"Upgrade the entire network to CS 1000

Release 5.0" (page 197)

).

2. Upgrade only the main office to CS 1000 Release 5.0, and then add

the new Branch Office (see

"Upgrade only the main office to CS 1000

Release 5.0" (page 198)

).

If, in a given network, there is one or more Succession 3.0 branch offices, all
branch offices must be upgraded to CS 1000 Release 4.0 Software before
you can upgrade the main office to CS 1000 Release 5.0
