Migration Support

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

Side-by-side migration from Live Communications Server 2005 with SP1, with or without edge servers, to Office Communications Server 2007 is supported. For details, see Migrating to Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007.

The supported migration path is from the outside in.

The Live Communications Server 2005 with SP1 code example "Network of Origination Icon" is not supported on Office Communications Server 2007. In Office Communications Server 2007, for federated users on a users Contact list, the user sees the same icon for all contacts that are outside the organization instead of seeing the icon for the network of origin. If the user moves the pointer over the contact in Office Communicator 2007, the SIP URI of the federated user appears.
