The simplest way is to use a network failover switch to switch between the SpeakerLink outputs of the 818 and 861 then on to the SpeakerLink speakers. No special configurations involved. Additionally run a digital coax from the 818 to the 861 for Trifield.
Alternatively, you can go 861 SpeakerLink to 818 then from the 818 to the SpeakerLink speakers which uses the 818 in a "pass-through" mode. This requires each processor to have a unique configuration that complements the other in terms of source configuration. There are some comms issues to overcome that can be unique to each system. I have done this many times.
