Testing Trunks; Lsp Failover Testing - Avaya G350 Installing And Upgrading

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 Avaya
G350 Media Gateways, 03-300438.

LSP failover testing

If you have an S8300 media server module installed in the G350 and configured as an LSP, you
need to perform a test to make sure that the LSP takes over control of the G350 if the G350
becomes disconnected from the primary media server.
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 G350, 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 Install this media server as an LSP. 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:
Primary media
gateway controller
S8300
S8400
S8500
S8700
