Mitel "Bandwidth" Gurus,
I am trying to setup Bandwidth as the SIP Trunk Carrier and they are requiring a 911 Test that requires the MCD to Failover to the secondary 911 route when they send a 4xx, 5xx or 6xx response to an Emergency Call.
Here is what they are requiring us to do for the Failover Testing.
Simulated failover testing
This test will validate your system’s ability to successfully redirect failed calls to your secondary route.
During this test we'll simulate a scenario in which your 911 call is sent to your primary route and will then fail with a SIP 410 response. When you receive a 410 response, you should send the SIP INVITE to the opposite data center.
To complete testing, simply make a call from the following ANIs:
If ATL is the primary, 15555558888
If DFW is the primary, 15555559999
Once you’re setup to do these things, you’re ready to migrate traffic. Please notify us if you require any assistance with the migration of services.
Note: If the 933 call isn't successful, please halt testing and open a ticket with your Bandwidth Support Team.
We have two SIP Peer Profiles for 911 that go to two different geographical locations [IPs] that Bandwidth supports. Their on-boarding team is requesting the previous testing to be completed, but I don't see a way to make that happen in the MCD. We do have an MBG setup and I am looking into whether or not we can Identify 4xx, 5xx, 6xx responses and redirect using the SIP Adaption feature, but so far I haven't successfully got that to work either.
I performed a search on the forums and seen that people have used Bandwidth Trunking before so hopefully someone can explain how they approached this scenario.
Thanks,
TE
