In the previous illustration, the telephony LAN (TLAN) provides IP
connectivity between the Succession 1000 system and the i2004 Internet
phonesets. The connection between the call server and media gateway can
be point-to-point, or it can be through the LAN, if the system is installed in a
distributed data network.
For information about the Succession 1000 system and i2004 Internet
phoneset bandwidth and network requirements, refer to the Succession
Communication Server for Enterprise 1000 Planning and Installation Guide
(553-3023-210).
Switch connectivity
For more details about how the 1002rp server and switch connection is
established, refer to the Installation and Configuration Task List
(555-7101-210).
CallPilot ELAN and CLAN network setup
The 1002rp server provides 10/100Base-T Ethernet connectivity through
NICs installed in the server. See “Slot assignments” on page 21 for details
on the location of NICs. The function of the NIC varies based on switch
connectivity, as described below:
Meridian 1 or Succession 1000 systems
One NIC provides connectivity to the ELAN.
For information about the purpose and requirements of the ELAN, see
the Planning and Engineering Guide (555-7101-101).
A second NIC is optional.
This optional NIC is required only for Meridian 1 or Succession 1000
systems that require a CLAN connection (in addition to the ELAN
connection). The CLAN provides data connectivity between desktop and
web messaging clients, web-enabled administrative PCs, and the
CallPilot server.
