Hi.

I am using a SBS agaist a IPT service provider, that requires that REFER support is turned off.

Is that possible on an SBS ?

the NET UX SBA's have a single Web UI interface for the gateway/sba so you never have to RDP to the server to setup the SBA thought a diffeent management interface, the ease of setup is tremendous with one interface

Should I also do Updates on the SBA (I have two from Audiocodex) ? And how should I do it, like i do it with the other LyncServers?

Wayne, somwhere in your reply I know there is intended punctuation - a period perhaps - but I think I get the general gist of what you are conveying. Thank you!

Hi Thomas the session will be preserved for the calls in progress on SBA even if the network connectivity with the primary site is down, only for the P2P calls, Lync to PSTN calls at the branch office, calls which are P2 P but with the Lync client at primary site will be dropped as the WAN will no longer be available.

Regards

Does the Survivable Branch Appliance support "session preservation"? i.e. Will on-net calls in progress seemlessly continue in the event where network connectivity fails at the primary Lync Server site?

Hi Brent

For Lync only the FE servers are licenced the appliance itself is procured directly at cost from the vendor with no licence implication for Lync Server itself.

For the SBS Server role (Not appliance) then Windows is licenced only and no requirement for addtional Lync Licences as this is covered by the FE licence costs.

What type of Licensing should be purchased with one of these devices?
