Supported Network Topologies; Capacity Constraints; Cac-Bl Maintenance - Avaya MCC1 Maintenance Procedures

The feature provides administrators with a static display of bandwidth utilization and an event log of call
denials through SAT commands.

Supported network topologies

Network topologies can be described as fully connected, hub and spoke, or a combination. All network
topologies are supported, with the following two limitations:
• When more than one path exists between two network regions, the CAC-BL feature assumes that
bandwidth is used across the direct path, or on a customer-specified indirect path.
• Network region pairs may have at most four intervening regions.

Capacity constraints

The following capacity constraints apply for Release 2.0:
• Although CAC-BL itself is not limited, a maximum of 250 Network Regions may be
administered for all Linux-based platforms.
• Up to 4 intervening regions can be administered in only a single indirectly-connected network
path.

CAC-BL maintenance

The Call Admission Control – Bandwidth Limitation feature provides information about the status of the
bandwidth used between regions and also provides information about calls that are denied in event logs.
The sections below provide details on the following:
• status ip-network-region form
• Denial events
status ip-network-region form
The status ip-network-region form was modified to show statistics on the Call Admission
Control- Bandwidth Limitation feature. The following two figures show two different command options.
The first command option (an existing option) is status ip-network-region <n> and is shown
in Figure 112, status ip-network-region <n>,
that region <n> has to either a direct or indirect region. For the direct regions, the bandwidth and number
of connections being used is shown in both the transmit and receive directions. For indirect regions, only
the status of the connection is shown.
NOTE:
Regions not connected (either directly or indirectly) to region <n> are not shown.
