Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST) is a feature which ensures that IP Phones can continue to function even if they are unable to communicate with Call Manager. During a failure, Cisco IP Phones register with the local SRST router which provides Call Processing and Control.
With the Connection Monitor Duration, Cisco IP Phones do not fail back immediately to ensure that the Call Manager in question is back online and is stable.
Here is also another presentation of Cisco SRST ( Cisco video)
During WAN failure , we can observe that H323 will not preserve absolutely the call when the failover occurs as there is no more any signal from the CUCM.
An unofficial workaround is to use the command h225 timeout to suppress the keepalive between the Call Manager and the gateway.
