OCS is expected to provide a rich unified communication solution to customers. innovaphone is committed to take advantage of the availability of OCS. Integrated innovaphone / OCS solutions can be set up today as described in this guide.

This document will show how to setup a innovaphone gateway in an Office Communications Server 2007 environment. It will concentrate on a very basic integration of both products (Direct SIP), namely the innovaphone IP6000 working as a separate PBX providing the OCS with a connection to the PSTN. For information on a more advanced integration of both products, like Remote Call Control or Dual Forking, please consult the Related Articles section.

Scenarios

Scenario1: innovaphone working as ISDN gateway

The IP6000 is used solely as media-gateway between the ISDN provider and the OCS installation. The interface to the OCS environment is represented by the Mediation Server.

Scenario2: innovaphone working as PBX and OCS ISDN gateway

In addition to the previous ISDN gateway function, the IP6000 will also operate as PBX allowing the registration of H.323 or SIP hard-phones. Both innovaphone and OCS user have access to the Unified Messaging features offered by Microsoft's Exchange 2007 Server.

Configuration Setup

  • Product name: Office Communications Server 2007
  • Version: 3.0.6362.0(Eval)
  • certified innovaphone OCS Firmware: Version 09-7034301

Known Problems

  • with OCS R2 the Mediation Server supports Early Media. However at the current time(11.09.09) this feature is not working on OCS side. This results in incoming calls to the OCS having no ringback tone. Until Microsoft addresses this issue, you can disable the option Reliability of Provisional Responses at the GW to the OCS. Affected of this problem are only calls genereated from SIP providers or 3rd party SIP/H.323 endpoints.
