S8700 IP connect
Conclusion
The examples above show various ways to connect the Avaya S8700 Media Server IP-connect
configuration to a customer network. Each method provides for resiliency against specific types
of failures. TDM connectivity can be protected even in the event of an enterprise network failure,
by protecting the control connection between Avaya media servers and IPSI cards. Customers
hold the ultimate responsibility of deciding how to best implement the solution.

As shown in
Figure 89: S8700 IP-Connect
system, the S8700 IP-Connect system also consists
of a pair of S8700 servers with IPSIs per port network. The main difference between a
Multi-Connect system and an IP-Connect system is that in IP-Connect systems, control traffic is
not isolated to a private control network, but traverses the customer's network, instead. Unlike
Multi-Connect, IP-Connect supports port networks across a WAN.
