Audiocodes GWs can do this. It became stable starting firmware release 5.8 and it is supported in sipXecs 4.2. http://wiki.sipfoundry.org/display/xecsuserV4r2/AudioCodes+6.00+Stand-Alone+ Survivability A second option would be to configure the local gateway as an emergency gateway in the phones. For Polycom phones you can do this through the UI on the phone screen adding a line, then go to tab Dial Plan. If the main route to sipXecs cannot be found, the phone uses the 2nd one, which points at the local GW. You can configure this on the phone group level as well. > 2)I never understood a way I could make the call traffic go in and out > the local mpls connection at the remote office without putting a local > sipx device of some sort at the remote site.

Explain 'media release'. sipXecs separates media from signaling and local media stays local. > I wanted to do what you describe, but I was unable to find a way to > make it work for us.
