Defining Branch Sites

The first step, whether deploying a Survivable Branch Appliance or a Survivable Branch Server, is to define each branch site within the Lync Server topology. Within Topology Builder follow these steps:

1. Right-click Branch Sites and select New Branch Site.

2. Enter a Name for the site and, optionally, a Description.

3. Click Next.

4. Enter the City where the site is located.

5. Enter a State/Region where the site is located.

6. Enter a two-digit Country Code where the site is located.

7. Click Next.

8. Clear the check box Open the New Survivable Wizard When This Wizard Closes, and then click Finish.

A Survivable Branch Appliance or Server can be added to the site later.
