When you delete a Unified Messaging (UM) IP gateway, Exchange servers can no longer accept incoming calls from the Voice over IP (VoIP) gateway, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)–enabled Private Branch eXchange (PBX), IP PBX, or session border controller (SBC) associated with the UM IP gateway.

Important:
You should delete a UM IP gateway only when you fully understand the implications of disabling communication with a VoIP gateway, IP PBX, or SBC.

For additional tasks related to UM IP gateways, see UM IP Gateway Procedures.
