Some more success. Spent some time on the phone with the Cisco TAC guys, man that was impressive. After the usual tech support you get on the phone I was expecting some walk you through the manual type support, holy crap was I wrong.
End result is that one remote site is up. I learned a some things from this site:
1 - make sure you were told to point things to the correct spot. Early on we were told the tftp server address for the UC was 10.1.100.1, this is wrong and a big reason why things did not connect. The correct answer is 10.1.10.2
2 - activate the phones locally before trying to plug them in remotely. The one phone I took as a test to see if it would update and install, did not take the update. So it will be registered locally first.
3 - The split networks worked like a charm, though it did come with some headaches on the ASA side with the NAT configurations.
Thats all for this week. I will start working on the other remote sites Monday. I have a classic car cruise to go on.
