Notes on the Maintenance of Gateway Channels HiPath 3000/5000 V5.0 or
later
In V5.0 and later, when a number of trunks is configured for IP networking with Hi-
>
Path 3000 Manager E(IP networking channels), this no longer results in the reser-
vation of B channels. This means that the available B channels can be used as gate-
way channels.
These resources are administered centrally via a single HG 1500 board, i.e. the 'Sig-
naling Gateway' (= Gatekeeper HG 1500), regardless of how many HG 1500 boards
are available in a system.
Sample Connection Scenarios:
Internal node connections between IP workpoint clients are direct payload connections. No
●
gateway channel is necessary. The number of possible concurrent connections depends
on the number of licensed IP workpoint clients.
Node-to-node connections (IP networking) between IP workpoint clients are direct payload
●
connections. No gateway channel is necessary. The number of possible concurrent con-
nections depends on the number of IP networking channels available.
Node-to-node connections (IP networking) between TDM workpoint clients require one IP
●
networking channel per connection and one gateway channel per node.

Note on Music On Hold (MOH): A license is not required for the MOH channel. If 8 B channels
are licensed, this means that the MOH channel can be used as a 9th channel. The number of
MOH Channels can be configured.
If 16 B channels are licensed and used exclusively for IP workpoint clients, the 16th B channel
must be used as the MOH channel.

This means that 8 channels to the
