Chapter 1 Introduction
Single-Site Model
The overall goals of an IP telephony network are as follows:
• End-to-end IP telephony
• IP WAN as the primary voice path with the Public Switched Telephone
Network (PSTN) as the secondary voice path between sites
• Lower total cost of ownership with greater flexibility
• Enabling of new applications
For IP telephony networks based on Cisco CallManager Release 3.0(5), there are
four general design models that apply to the majority of implementations:
• Single-Site Model, page 1-3
• Multiple Sites with Independent Call Processing, page 1-5
• Multisite IP WAN with Distributed Call Processing, page 1-7
• Multisite IP WAN with Centralized Call Processing, page 1-10
The following sections summarize the design goals and implementation
guidelines for each of these models.
Single-Site Model
Figure 1-2 illustrates the model for an IP telephony network within a single
campus or site.
