BCT for MAS

This feature provides the evolution of the Media Application Server to the
IBM BladeCenter T chassis which is NEBS-3-/ETSI-compliant. Network
Equipment Building System 3 (NEBS-3) compliant hardware adheres to
strict requirements for withstanding high temperatures, violent shaking,
lightning strikes, airborne contaminants, fires and electrostatic discharge.

IBM x3550

The MAS platform is now supported on the IBM x3550 server. The IBM
x3550 is a direct replacement for the IBM x336 and comes with Windows
Server 2003 preloaded.

MAS OAM/fault integration

This feature provides the integration of the log and alarm notifications from
MAS into the MCS Fault and Performance Manager (FPM). Provisioning the
MAS servers on the MCS system allows the management server to receive
logs and alarms from the MAS, increasing the visibility of MAS problems.
When the FPM restarts, it queries the alarm state of each MAS server
configured on the MCS and reflects the state of each server on the System
Management Console. You can configure the FPM to request periodic
updates to the MAS alarm state is provided, to ensure synchronization
between the MCS and MAS.

MAS Radvision support

This feature covers internal changes to the MCS 5100 software and is
related to the Radvision (RV) Stack Integration feature.
The feature is internal to the MCS and has no user impacts.

MAS Web Collaboration multilingual support

With the MAS Web Collaboration multilingual support feature, the
Web Collaboration service can support multiple languages. The Web
Collaboration user interface and the prompts are available in multiple
languages. The MAS Web Collaboration service supports the following
