Shared Address Space Routing is Disabled

Guess what happens if you setup your CsHostingProvider incorrectly when deploying Skype for Business on-premises with Office 365 UM? Calls won’t make it to voicemail and a somewhat inaccurate error message from SfB might distract you from the fix.

Here’s the relevant part of the trace of a call that the Edge server is trying to send to O365 UM:

OK, so given the specific wording above then you’ll probably decide that clearly the fix is to set “EnabledSharedAddressSpace” on the CsHostingProvider for Office 365 UM – and you’d be correct, however PowerShell doesn’t make it that easy, throwing up this red herring when you try:

RedHerring

set-CsHostingProvider : HostsOCSUsers and EnableSharedAddressSpace must occur together or not at all.

Now a reasonable person might read this as meaning that you need to have HostsOCSUsers and EnableSharedAddressSpace BOTH set to the same value (a 1 or 0, true or false). OK, well that’s how I read it …

In the heat of battle I opted to remove and recreate the CsHostingProvider to resolve the issue, but in preparing this post it became apparent to me that the values themselves don’t actually matter – you just need to include both parameters in the line when you issue the command to appease PowerShell. Thus, this is just as valid a fix:

PS C:\> set-CsHostingProvider "Exchange Online" -EnabledSharedAddressSpace 1 -HostsOCSUsers 0

Here’s my resulting HostingProvider:
