Multimedia Interface (MMI)

Multimedia Interface (MMI)
The Multimedia Interface handles the following protocols:
• International Telecommunications Union (ITU) H.221 — Includes H.230, H.242, H.231, and
H.243 protocols
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) H.221 — Includes H.230, H.242, H.231, and
H.243 protocols
• BONDING (Bandwidth On-Demand Interoperability Group) Mode 1
• ESM HLP HDLC Rate Adaptation
The Vistium Personal Conferencing System is supported either through the 8510T BRI terminal or
directly through the Vistium TMBRI PC board.
Using the World Class Core (WCC) BRI interface, most desktop multimedia applications are supported
through a personal computer's BRI interface.

S8300 and G700 maintenance strategy

The maintenance strategy is intended to provide easy fault isolation procedures and to limit problems to
field-replaceable components. The maintenance strategy is driven by the desire to move the G700 toward
a data networking paradigm. This leads to a dual strategy in which some of the G700's subsystems are
maintained and controlled by a Media Server running Avaya Communication Manager, while others are
covered by maintenance software residing on the G700. The latter subsystems are not monitored directly
by a Media Server.
