Signaling Server
NN43021-310
Standard 06.01
CS 1000M systems use a Signaling Server. The Signaling Server provides a
central processor to drive the signaling for IP Phones and IP Peer
Networking. The Signaling Server is a Common Processor Pentium Mobile
(CP PM) circuit card or a Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) server that
provides signaling interfaces to the IP network, using software components
that operate on the Linux Base operating system.
You can install the Signaling Server in a load-sharing redundant
configuration for high scalability and reliability. The following software
components can operate on the Signaling Server.
•
IP Line Terminal Proxy Server (LTPS)
•
SIP/H.323 Gateway Signaling software
•
Network Routing Service (NRS) (optionally redundant)
•
SIP Line Gateway software (stand-alone only)
•
Element Manager Web server
•
Application Server for Personal Directory, Redial List, and Callers List
for UNIStim IP Phones
The Signaling Server is an application server that can host various co-resident
Signaling Server applications. SIP Line Gateway software cannot co-reside
with any other signaling software. A server configured with a SIP Line
Gateway can be referred to as a SIP Line Server.
The CP PM Signaling Server is housed in the system chassis. The COTS
Signaling Server is mounted on an external rack (see Figure 12).
