Failover Scenarios

Voice Channel

If the SIP Phone loses connection to the SIP Servers in one data center, it re-connects to the SIP Servers in the other data center, based on SIP/dual registration protocol. Existing voice calls might be lost.

GWS has a voice component that monitors the local SIP Server session. It will drop when the SIP Server goes down. This will sever its cometd connection back to the WWE application in the agent's browser, signaling to it that there is a problem with the voice connection.

Workspace

Workspace triggers a disaster recovery failover to another site based on the following triggers:

  • DN unregistration (DNStateChanged Inactive event received)
  • Voice channel unavailability (ServiceStateChanged UNAVAILABLE event received)
  • CometD real-time channel loss
  • Workspace initialization issues at login
  • Registration failure for Softphone
  • Registration failure for WebRTC

The Workspace application needs to authenticate in order to login to the backup site. The Single Sign-On (SSO) integration is automatically login to the backup site without requiring the agent to enter a password.

Data Center

If the entire data center fails, both the voice channel and the WWE application will fail. This impacts both CometD connections to the WWE client, forcing it to reconnect to the backup site. The SIP endpoint also switches over to its SIP BC (as described above).
