  1. Hello, you you specify how you configured the trunk on the S4B side ?
    Get-cstrunkconfiguration?
    I have some trouble with it as apparently not everything is working properly…

      1. When activating enable sending refer to the gateway I have no tone between my Cisco desk phone and the callee with call via work. When this option is set to none then call via work is ok but then s4b clients not using CvW get disconnected if ever the other peer (ex: Cisco desk phone)transfer them or make a conf with them. Any idea?

  2. Before we roll Skype for Business out to everyone we need simultaneous ring working with our Cisco desk phones, however I am unable to get it working. Are there logs I can look at to see if the calls are hitting SfB (and therefore a SfB issue) or if it is a CUCM issue?
