Media Server Alarms
In Avaya S8300 Media Server with G700 Media Gateway, a Linux-based Media Server (internal or
external) is configured so that it serves as the trap collector and provides external alarm notification.
A process called the Global Maintenance Manager (GMM) runs on the Media Server and collects events
that are logged to the Linux syslog_d process. These events consist primarily of failure notification events
logged by the MultiVantage and Intuity maintenance subsystems. For events that require external
notification, the most basic choice is to call the Avaya technical service center's INADs (Integrated
Alarming and Dispatching System). However, other possible methods are sending an email and/or page to
specified destinations and sending an SNMP trap to a specified network management station.
The Media Server also has an SNMP trap manager that collects traps from:
• MM LEDs
• MM insertion and removal
• Uploads and downloads to the MMs
• VoIP MM
• VoIP engine on the motherboard
• G700-associated UPS systems.
