IP Telephony Migration Part 3 (Switchover)
Oct 13th, 2008 by Jay Howerter
After an entire year of preparation, It was finally time to switch the incoming phone circuits to the new gateways. We made the switch on a Friday night so we could have the entire weekend to fix any problems that came up.
The physical switchover was pretty smooth. On Saturday morning, I started switching the paging system over and my coworkers began switching the analog phones and entry way phones to the new system. It took most of the day to complete and test everything.
That was it!!
Since the switch we have been dealing with little problems and specific configuration issues. All in all, it was a successful project.
