The Mediation Server component can be installed in two different ways – either consolidated on the Front End Server (being part of the Front End Pool), or installed as the dedicated pool with Mediation Server functionality only. In both scenarios, the audio path between the Mediation Server and Gateway(s) can be secured differently:

  • The Mediation Server to Gateway network is dedicated – a physical isolated LAN on separate switches or cables
  • The audio traffic is transmitted over the production LAN and TLS encryption is used
