Converting IP-PNC port networks with simplex control to duplicated control
Procedure
To convert an IP-PNC port network from a simplex control network to a duplicated control
network, perform the following tasks:
Installing and cabling a second Ethernet switch, if necessary
●
Configuring the SNMP subagent in the Avaya Ethernet switch (if used)
●
Enabling firewall settings, if necessary
●
Accessing the media server maintenance web interface
●
Configuring Control Network B
●
Designating the slot for the duplicated IPSI circuit pack
●
Installing the duplicated IPSI circuit pack
●
Adding control network cabling for the new circuit pack
●
Verifying the IPSI circuit packs are inserted properly
●
Programming the duplicated IPSI circuit pack
●
Starting a SAT session
●
Administering the duplicated IPSI circuit pack on the media server
●
Verifying IPSI translations
●
Upgrading IPSI firmware, if necessary
●
Installing and cabling a second Ethernet switch, if necessary
If necessary, install and cable to the S8700 series Media Servers a second Ethernet switch.
This switch provides IP connections between the duplex servers and the duplicated IPSI
(TN2312BP) circuit packs. A second or alternate Ethernet switch may already be available if the
customer has designated it. However, if the control networks are dedicated (that is, not using
the customer LAN for the server-to-IPSI connection), then a second Ethernet switch, from either
Avaya or a third party, is required.
For information on installing and cabling Avaya Ethernet switches in the S8700-series
configurations, see Quick Start for Hardware Installation: Avaya S8700 Series Media Server,
