Connecting Multiple Call Servers
Two or more Call Servers can be connected to create one system where one will act as the Primary Call
Server and all Call Servers connected to the Primary Call Server become Secondary Call Servers. This can
be via the LAN or via a WAN link.
On power up, by default, each Call Server will use 192.168.0.1 as its IP address and act as a DHCP Server.
If this feature is not required because, for example, 192.168.0.1 is already being used and another DHCP
Server exists on the network do not connect the new Call Server to the network until this default
configuration has been changed as described on page 28.

28. It is recommended that this address be outside the address range given out by the DHCP
Server, eg 192.168.0.252

Server.

port on the Primary Call Server.
