This topic describes how to configure the active node in a multi-node centralized call management network for the unified gateway two-node cluster.
Prerequisites
ϒ⁄Basic data, including the unified gateway IP address, boards, and time zone, has been configured for the active node. For details, see Configuring the Basic Information.
ϒ⁄Numbers have been allocated to SIP users (IP phones, and POTS phones and fax machines under IADs). Users with numbers 81000, 82000, and 82001 can dial the short numbers to call each other. For details, see Configuration Guide (Web Mode).
ϒ⁄In a two-node active/standby network, IP phones updates registration information to the standby node when the active node is faulty. Because the unified gateway receives a limited number of terminal registration requests every second, it is recommended that you set the IP phone registration period based on the terminal user capacity size, as shown in Table 1. On the IP phone management web page, the path for setting the parameter is: SIP Registration Cycle under Advanced > SIP Signaling.

Configuring Distributed Network Data
1.Use an administrator account to log in to the web management system of a X1900 series unified gateway.
2.Choose System > Network Mode.
3.Select Primary node from the Site type drop-down list box.
4.Set Standby node IP address.
5.Click Create and set parameters for local node 1. For parameter description, see X1900 series unified gateway web help.
You can add local node 2 in the same way.
The Authentication password is the same as Data synchronize password of step 6.
6.Modify Data synchronize password.
Choose System > Device Management, modify Data synchronize password.
The data synchronize password is used for data synchronization between the primary gateway and the standby gateway. You can customize the password, but the password configured on the primary gateway must be the same as that configured on the standby gateway. Otherwise, data synchronization will fail.
7.Click Data Save in the upper right corner of the web management system.
The unsaved configurations will be deleted after the device is restarted.
Configuring User Data
The process of configuring user data for branch 1 is similar to that for branch 2. The following describes how to configure user data for branch 1:
1.Configure SIP users (IP phones, and POTS phones and fax machines under IADs) at branch 1.
a.Choose User > SIP User and click Create.
b.Configure a SIP user with the number 83000 (with long number 28883000), as shown in Figure 2.
From V200R003C30SPC300, two additional parameters, namely Service password and Self-service login password, are provided for a user being created. You can log in to the web management system and configure Service password and Self-service login password, or run the config system subscriber defaultpwd password password webpassword webpassword command in global config mode to configure the default service password and self-service login password for the user. If the passwords are not configured using either the command or web management system, the user fails to be created. If the passwords are configured using both the command and web management system, the configurations in the web management system prevail.
c.Click OK.
d.Configure two SIP users with numbers 84000 and 84001 in the same way. To configure two SIP users at a time, set User count to 2.
2.Configure POTS users (POTS phones and fax machines directly connected to the local node) at branch 1.
POTS users at branch 1 are registered with the central node through the local node. SIP users are configured on the central node while POTS users are configured on the local node.
a.Choose User > SIP User and click Create.
b.Configure two SIP users with numbers 85000 and 85001 (without long numbers).
c.Click OK.
Configuring Office Route Data
1.Set office route selection codes.
ϒ⁄The office route selection code is 1 when the active node connects to local node 1 through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄The office route selection code is 2 when the active node connects to local node 2 through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄The office route selection code is 3 when the active node connects to trunk gateway through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄Choose Trunk > Office Route Configuration > Office Route Selection Code and click Create.
ϒ⁄Set Office Route Selection Code to 3.
ϒ⁄Click OK.
ϒ⁄Repeat the preceding steps to configure the office route selection codes to 1 and 2 when the central node connects to local nodes 1 and 2 through SIP trunks.
2.Set office route IDs.
ϒ⁄Both the office route selection code and the office route ID are 1 when the active node connects to local node 1 through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄Both the office route selection code and the office route ID are 2 when the active node connects to local node 2 through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄Both the office route selection code and the office route ID are 3 when the active node connects to trunk gateway through a SIP trunk.
ϒ⁄Choose Trunk > Office Route Configuration > Office Route and click Create.
ϒ⁄Configure office route ID 3.
ϒ⁄Click OK.
ϒ⁄Repeat the preceding steps to configure the office route IDs to 1 and 2 when the active node connects to local nodes 1 and 2 through SIP trunks.
3.Configure a number change index.
Number change: Configure number change index 1, which is used to change the calling number to the automatic switchboard number 28882999 of the headquarters.
ϒ⁄Choose Trunk > Office Route Configuration > Number Change Index and click Create.
ϒ⁄Configure number change index 1.
ϒ⁄Click OK.
Configuring Prefixes
1.Configure intra-office call prefixes.
According to the data plan, you must configure intra-office call prefix 8 for short numbers and intra-office call prefix 2888 for long numbers.
a.Choose Trunk > Called Prefix Configuration and click Create.
b.Configure intra-office call prefix 8.
c.Click OK.
Configure intra-office call prefix 2888 by following the steps for configuring intra-office call prefix 8.
2.Configure outgoing call prefixes.
a.Prefix for users at the headquarters to make outgoing calls: 900, 90, and 9
b.Prefix for users at branches to make outgoing calls through the headquarters: 9010
c.Prefix for users at the headquarters and branch 2 to make outgoing calls through branch 1: 90571
d.Prefix for users at the headquarters and branch 1 to make outgoing calls through branch 2: 9021
e.Click Create. Configure international toll call prefix 900.
Local call prefix 9 can be configured only after international toll call prefix 900 and national toll call prefix 90 are configured.
f.Click OK.
Configure other prefixes by using the same method. The interfaces for configuring other prefixes are similar to Figure 8. Table 2 describes the differences.

Configuring SIP Trunks
ϒ⁄Configure the SIP trunk that connects the active node to local node 1. Set the office route ID to 1, domain name of the peer device to localgw1, and SIP port number to 5060. In addition, enable the heartbeat function and set the interval for sending heartbeat messages to 120s.
ϒ⁄Configure the SIP trunk that connects the active node to local node 2. Set the office route ID to 2, domain name of the peer device to localgw2, and SIP port number to 5060. In addition, enable the heartbeat function and set the interval for sending heartbeat messages to 120s.
ϒ⁄Configure the SIP trunk that connects the active node to trunk gateway. Set the office route ID to 3, domain name of the peer device to centergw, and SIP port number to 5060. In addition, enable the heartbeat function and set the interval for sending heartbeat messages to 120s.
1.Choose Trunk > Trunk Configuration > SIP and click Add A Peer Office.
The connection between the local office and the peer office is displayed.
2.Click the line between local and point0. Configure the SIP trunk that connects local node 1 to the active node.
3.Click OK.
4.Repeat the preceding steps to configure the SIP trunk that connects the active node to local node 2 and trunk gateway.
Configuring Call Sources
Configure call sources according to the data plan to implement the following requirements:
ϒ⁄When a user at local node 1 dials prefix 9 (outgoing call prefix) and a called number, the call is routed to the active node. The active node reroutes the call to local node 1 according to the call source (Digits of called numbers are deleted on local node 1. Users at local node 1 belong to call source 1.).
ϒ⁄When a user at local node 2 dials prefix 9 (outgoing call prefix) and a called number, the call is routed to the active node. The active node reroutes the call to local node 2 according to the call source (Digits of called numbers are deleted on local node 2. Users at local node 2 belong to call source 2.).
ϒ⁄When a user at active node dials prefix 9 (outgoing call prefix) and a called number, the call is routed to the trunk gateway. Digits of called numbers are deleted on trunk gateway. You need to set the local node's automatic switchboard number as the prefix with its attribute being "local call". When the active node receives a call request of this prefix, it routes the call to the local node for processing.
1.Choose Trunk > CallSource and click Create.
2.Add call sources 1 and 2.
3.Configure call sources.
a.Choose User > SIP User and click 
next to the user 83000 to be modified.
b.Set the call source for users at branch 1 to 1.
You can set the call source for user 84000, 84001, 85000, 85001 at branch 1 in the same way, also set callsourceno to 2, you can set the call source for user 86000, 87000, 870001, 88000 and 88001 at branch 2.
All users are added to call source 0 by default, so you do not need to change the call source for users at the headquarters.
4.Configure reroute analysis.
a.Choose Trunk > Rerouting Configuration and click Create.
b.When a user in call source 1 dials outgoing call prefix 9 to make an outgoing call, the call is rerouted to office route 1 (local node 1).
c.When a user in call source 2 dials outgoing call prefix 9 to make an outgoing call, the call is rerouted to office route 2 (local node 2).
Configuring Automatic Switchboards
This topic uses the default automatic switchboard as an example to describe how to configure the automatic switchboard. For more information about automatic switchboard with custom announcements, cyclical automatic switchboard, and automatic switchboard for dialing the switchboard number and extension number together, and local node voice playback, see Automatic Switchboard.
VU scripts of the automatic switchboard have been pre-configured into the system by default. Users can configure the automatic switchboard access code to enable automatic switchboard functions.
1.Use an administrator account to log in to the web management system of a X1900 series unified gateway.
2.Choose Trunk > Called Prefix Configuration and click Create.
3.Set the automatic switchboard access code and use the default values of other parameters.
4.Click OK.
If you want the central node to play the automatic switchboard announcement for the local nodes, repeat the preceding steps to configure data for the local node automatic switchboard access codes 288885999 and 28888999.
