Simultaneous ringing in Lync Server 2013

 

Topic Last Modified: 2013-03-09

When the called party has simultaneous ringing enabled, Location-Based Routing analyzes the location of the calling party and the endpoints of the called parties to determine whether the call should be routed.

The following table illustrates a user configured with simultaneous ringing, and the simultaneous ringing target is a user in the same network site, in a different network site, or in an unknown network site.

The following table illustrates a call from a Lync user (i.e. Lync caller) in the same network site, in a different network site, or from an unknown network site. The callee has a PSTN endpoint (i.e. cellphone) configured as a simultaneous ring target. In this scenario, Location-Based Routing will determine whether the call should be routed to the simultaneous ring target (i.e. cellphone) of the callee or not.
