TMS Schedule TP Endpoint call to SPARK Space

[RICHARD MESSINGER]

Is there a way for TMS to schedule TP Endpoints to call into a SPARK Space either as an OBTP or as a Schedule select and call?

You could do it by adding the Spark Space URI as an unmanaged SIP endpoint, or scheduling the conference as "Externally hosted" and entering the Spark Space URI there.

Thanks for the suggestion.  Will TMS realize that the SPARK Space is doing the bridging or will it think it needs additional resources if I have two or more Endpoints calling out to it?

We have done this before by scheduling the Spark URI as an "External" participant:

If you want to have connect TMS managed endpoints into a Spark Space, than you will need to scheduled the conference as Externally Hosted in TMS. However, if you want to host a conference using your on-premise conference bridge, you will need to add the Spark users via the External tab in the Add Participants window.

Thanks for all the suggestions.  They all worked to some degree, but the best was using the WebEx or SPARK Space as the External Host.  Will need to test oncce more when I am on site to see what is on the MX800's screens.
