Testing the Complete Configuration

This section provides tests for the complete configuration, including the control and bearer
networks and the telephones and consoles.
This section provides tests to:
• review the status of the configuration
test the duplication link to the media servers
•
• test the IP server interfaces, expansion interfaces, and TDM buses in the port networks.
test the telephones and other equipment.
•
These tests verify that the Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) cables, terminators, and the
Inter-Cabinet Cables (MCC1 Media Gateway) work. If a FAIL Result code is seen, check these
cables. If problems persist, refer to the maintenance book for your configuration

media servers, Cajun Ethernet switch(es), UPSs, and different circuit packs.
NOTE:
Circuit pack positions are usually given by cabinet, carrier, and slot. They may also be
given by port. The term "cabinet" refers to an MCC1 Media Gateway, making up one to
five port networks, or a stack of SCC1 Media Gateways or 4 G600 Media Gateways in a
rack, making up one port network. A port network is defined as a group of media gateways
or carriers connected together with one TDM bus.
