Testing Trunks; Lsp Failover Testing - Avaya G250 Installation And Upgrade Manual

After installation

Testing trunks

Use the facility test call feature to verify that each trunk is functioning properly. For information
about how to use the facility test call feature, see Maintenance for the Avaya G250 and the
G350 Media Gateway, 03-300438.

LSP failover testing

If you have an S8300B media server module installed in the G250 and configured as an LSP,
you need to perform a test to make sure that the LSP takes over control of the G250 if the G250
becomes disconnected from the primart media server.
Note:
If SLS mode is enabled and the primary controller and LSP both fail, then the
Note:
G250 enters SLS mode.
To perform the LSP failover test:
1. Verify that valid translations are file synchronized to the LSP by logging into Avaya
Communication Manager from the LSP and listing either stations or trunks (refer to
Administrator's Guide for Avaya Communication Manager, 555-233-506). Verify that the list
of stations or trunks is valid. If the files are not synchronized, verify that you have correctly
configured the required IP address(es) for the primary controller (media server). If you are
using Avaya IW to configure the G250, the following are key actions that must be done in
the wizard to ensure correct IP address configuration:
a. In the Usage options screen, select the one of the following usage options that
corresponds to the correct primary controller type:
Install an LSP that is associated with an S8700 Primary Controller.
●
Install an LSP that is associated with an S8500 Primary Controller.
●
Install an LSP that is associated with an S8300B Primary Controller.
●
If you selected the correct usage option, the Primary Controller IP Address screen
appears later in the wizard, and calls for the required primary controller IP addresses for
your primary controller type. The following IP addresses need to be configured for each
primary controller type:
