Geolocation policies for logical partitioning?

I am needing implement geolocation logical partitioning. I am getting a basic understanding by reading the docs out there, but I cannot figure out how to make it a good experience for the end users.

IP Phone A and B are in different locations, but since they are both "interior" the call is permitted. So once of the users needs to conference in an outside person, but that is not permitted because the gateway policy, I guess it would be too much to invoke AAR or something to fix that.

But the problem is if I start with the external party, then I call the other user, the call will fail, because the gateway is already part of the call. I am assuming that even since the dial plan is setup to keep calls on-net, there isn't even a way to call out and around to the other user.

Does anyone out there have experience with Logical partitioning through geolocation polies?

Nate,
I believe there are some case studies available on Cisco.com.
I believe the way it's implemented is to have two lines with same DN but different geolocation tags. One for external and another for internal calls.

The case studies are getting rid of of the two lines in India. But no specifics and it talks about all of the stuff that you can't do.

Re: Geolocation policies for logical partitioning? [In reply to]

I just had to come to the realization that the logical partitioning is there as a safeguard from letting things talk that shouldn't. It has no ability to help route the call in a better way.

So now comes in a lot more dial plan magic.

Thanks for helping me through this.

Nate,

I would open a configuration assistance case with cisco TAC if you
have a bunch of scenarios that you need to run them by.
Sorry, i am not too familiar with LP
