Weird federation issue RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have just finish setting a full deployment of OCS R2 environnement.

    Everything works great.
    We have federated with Microsoft and it also works great.

    Now, my problem is that I am unable to federate with any other OCS organization...beside Microsoft.

    The weird thing, is that the other OCS company are also federated with Microsoft....so federation works...but not within each other.

    To recap:

    Company A : OCS R2
    Company B :OCS R2
    Company C: OCS

    A and B are federated
    B and C are federated
    But A and C are not able to federate??


    Both A and C are Open for federation and are using Public Certificate.

    Thanks for any light on this one.

  • My guess would be certificate issues
    A or C EDGE may not have correct root Certs installed
    You can run a debug session when adding a federated contact

    Could be a cert issue, but here is a snip of a debug session.

    Company A = cnww.com     is using UC Entrust Public Certificate
    Company C = Alphamosaik.com    is using  UC Digicert Public Certificate


    Thanks for your help

  • Problem solved.

    I asked company C to update their Root TRusted Autorities.

    Entrust has changed their Root Authority.
