Reference Models for Migration Configurations

Model A poses two main questions for consideration:
• Should the trunk connections remain on the PBX until the end of the
migration, or should some trunks be moved to the IP network along with
users?
• What type of connection should be used between the PBX and the IP
network?
Table 10-2 shows the feature set supported by each type of connection.
The following points briefly explain the importance of the features in Table 10-2:
• Calling number, in addition to being displayed on the called phone, can be
used for billing and voice mail purposes.
• Called number is important if the receiving switch is going to route the call
directly to a phone, rather than terminating first at an attendant. The called
number is also used for voice mail.
• Calling name is displayed on the called phone.
• Diversion reason (busy, ring-no-answer) can be used by voice mail systems
to play different greetings.
