Using Pim To Manage Sls Administration On The Gateway - Avaya G250 Administration

Configuring Standard Local Survivability (SLS)

Using PIM to manage SLS administration on the gateway

Before enabling SLS, you must gather provisioning data from PIM and deliver it to the G250/
G350. Run PIM's Device Profile Wizard to perform this task. The Device Profile Wizard gathers
a subset of the Communication Manager translations (dial plan analysis and destination routing
instructions) and delivers them to the G250/G350. If PIM is not available, this translation subset
(the SLS data set) can be created manually, using the procedure described in
manually configure SLS administration on the gateway
PIM must be installed on and launched from the Avaya Network Management Console. For
information about PIM, see
1. Ensure that the Network Management Console (NMC) has discovered the media gateway.
2. Before PIM's automatic scheduled SLS updates will work as expected, set the device
parameters for both the server and the gateway in the NMC:
Server: Communication Manager login and password
●
Note:
The server must be the first listing in NMC's discovery output. If an ESS node is
Note:
discovered and listed prior to the main server, the main server's login/password
will not permit access to the ESS node.
Gateway: SNMPv1/v3 access parameters
●
Gateway: NMC has discovered the gateway's IP address
●
3. Verify that the Communication Manager has been configured for SLS as described in
Configuring Communication Manager for SLS
4. Click the Device Profiles icon/link in the top-level toolbar of the main PIM window.
Alternatively, select PIM Objects > Device Profiles from the left panel.
5. Click the New icon on the Device Profile list page that appears in the right panel of the
main PIM window. If this is not a new profile, open the existing profile from the left panel or
from the Device Profile list page.
6. Proceed through the Device Profile Wizard to the Details page. Set the CM version field
to 4.0.
7. Proceed through the Device Profile Wizard to the SLS / ARS page
page on page 121) and perform the following:
a. Check the Enable the SLS feature on this device? box to enable SLS on the G250/
G350. A cleared box means that SLS is disabled.
b. Check the Perform scheduled SLS updates on this device? box to send the SLS
administration data set to the gateway according to the settings on the SLS Update
