New backup rules
Signaling Server
enhancements apply to both CP PII and CP PIV system configurations, unless
otherwise noted.
Note: This feature does not actually perform an EDD, which must be
initiated through an appropriate command in LD 43.
Three new backup rule types are introduced with CP PIV:
•
FTP — an external FTP server is accessed for storing or retrieving
backup data.
•
FMD — fixed media device for storing backup data in a special directory
on the /u partition. A CP PII system stores the data on a local hard drive,
while a CP PIV system uses an on-board Compact Flash card.
•
RMD — removable media device for storing backup data. The RMD rule
type is available only on a CP PIV system.
Note: New backup rules are not available for Geographic Redundancy
Database Replication Control (GRDRC).

The Signaling Server, as shown in Figure 3 and describ ed in Table 2,
provides signaling interfaces to the network using software components that
run on a real-time operating system. You can install Signaling Servers in a
load-sharing redundant configuration for higher scalability and reliability.
The Signaling Server is equipped with several software components:
•
IP Phone Terminal Proxy Server (TPS)
•
H.323 Signaling Gateway (virtual trunk)
•
H.323 Gatekeeper
•
SIP
Communication Server 1000E
