Planning and engineering
Nortel recommends that you implement the Telephony Gateway and
Services component to provide basic connectivity (which you can more
readily debug), followed by the Remote Call Control (RCC) for more complex
feature operation. Configure both Telephony Gateway and Services and
RCC only in situations where both components are required.
Consider the following during the planning process.
•
Consider the size of your network. See
for
detailed information about determining your network architecture.
•
Determine the type of users (internal and external users) and
anticipated call traffic. For more information about type of users,
see
Table 5 "Maximum supported users for each topology" (page
. For information about calculating the anticipated call traffic for
the Communication Server 1000, see Communication Server 1000E
Planning and Engineering (NN43041-220).
•
Determine that the software and hardware components required for the
CS 1000 are installed and have the latest software versions. For more
information, see
"CS 1000 and Signaling Server installation" (page 105)
•
Determine that the software and hardware components required for
Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007 have the latest software
versions. For more information, see
"OCS 2007 component installation"
.
•
Determine the system requirements for the OC 2007 client. For more
information, see
"OC 2007 client requirements" (page 47)
•
Determine capacity requirements for all components. For more
information, see
•
Prepare your infrastructure.
•
Plan for external user setup. For more information, see
.
•
Plan your implementation strategy.
For more information on deploying OCS 2007, see the Microsoft Office
Communications Server 2007 Planning Guide . Download Microsoft

Network configuration
The main consideration when you plan and engineer the Converged
Office desktop is the size of the network. Networks are divided into three
main categories: small, medium, and large. Each type requires specific
configuration.
The following sections describe typical network topologies to assist in
determining capacity and robustness requirements.
