If federation with an external XMPP server is desired in a Geographic Redundant deployment, XMPP federation must be configured on both Presence Services clusters. The external server may reside inside any of the two data centers, or may be external to both of them. In these deployments, the Avaya Breeze® platform servers of both the data centers send messages to the external server. However, for a given domain, the external server sends messages to only a single node of one of the data centers.
In the following checklist:
-
DC-1 refers to data center 1.
-
DC-2 refers to data center 2.
-
m refers to the number of servers in the each Presence Services clusters.
-
n refers to the number of local Presence/IM domains supported on the Presence Services clusters.
-
o refers to the number of external servers in the remote deployment.
-
p refers to the number of remote Presence/IM domains.
