Avaya, Microsoft, Polycom, and HP Networking UC&C interoperability at Enterprise Connect
We had a lot of things to show on the booth at Enterprise Connect (photos of the booth) - and I didn' t get time to capture the full array of solutions and services on offer from HP, but I did grab a few minutes with Mushtaq Ahmed, Global Product Manager, from the HP Networking team to discuss HP's integrated solutions from Microsoft and Avaya, and the integration that will become possible with the next release of HP's VCX platform.
Mushtaq talks briefly about the Avaya Aura™ Session Border Controller which provides security for SIP traffic from the branch office, and the HP Survivable Branch Communications powered by Microsoft® Lync™, which provides survivability for the branch office voice communications in the event of an WAN outage.

The session set out to demystify the things you need to support real-time multi-media traffic such as voice and video on your network, including QoS on LAN, WAN and the internet, SLAs, topology, mobility, and monitoring.
