DEFINITY ECS IP Solutions allows you to send voice and fax from the DEFINITY
ECS through an Internet protocol (IP) network to other DEFINITY ECSs having
this feature or to other H.323 V2 compliant endpoints. It is implemented using the
TN802/B IP Interface, which is a Windows NT server residing on the IP Interface
Assembly inside the DEFINITY ECS.
The IP Interface is an assembly composed of a TN802B circuit board, a
processor card, and DSP resource card. For ordering purposes, the assembly is
identified as a J58890MA-1 L30, but for simplicity, we refer to it in this book as the
TN802B IP Interface.
The TN802B IP Interface operates in two modes: IP Trunk, available with Release
7 or later, and Media Processor (MedPro), available with Release 8. The IP Trunk
mode is Internet Telephone Server—Enterprise (ITS-E) compatible, and the
MedPro mode is H.323 V2 compatible. The TN802B IP Interface is backwards
compatible and defaults to IP Trunk mode.You must administer it to use it in
MedPro mode.
For more information on the IP Interface capabilities and limitations, refer to the
DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Overview
.
The following sections describe the process for
■ Installing in Media Processor Mode
■ Installing in IP Trunk Mode
■ Upgrading a TN802 V3 (or later) to a TN802B (MedPro mode)
!
WARNING:
When connected remotely via pcANYWHERE, only use the pcANYWHERE
Restart Host Computer button on the toolbar to restart Windows NT.
Installing in Media Processor Mode
To operate in MedPro mode, you must install the TN802B IP Interface and, if the
system does not have one, you must also install and administer a TN799B
C-LAN
circuit pack. For C-LAN administration, refer to
DEFINITY Enterprise
Communications Server Administration for Network Connectivity.
If you have existing TN802 IP Interface circuit packs, you can upgrade them
either by replacing the circuit pack with a TN802B or by downloading the
TN802B firmware onto the circuit packs (see ‘‘Upgrade to TN802B (R8)’’ on page
6-76).
