Introduction

Several system connections are required to make the CS 1000E operational.

The CS 1000E must be connected to the MG 1000E through the ELAN

subnet. The Media Gateways are directly connected to the Media Gateway

Expander. The system’s components, such as the ISP1100 Signaling Server

and the Media Cards installed in the Media Gateway, require both ELAN

subnet and TLAN subnet connections.

Connecting CP PM Call Server 0 to CP PM Call Server 1

The CS 1000E redundant architecture allows for the separation of

Call Server 0 and Call Server 1. The two processors are connected by either

a direct 100BaseT crossover cable or a carefully engineered Layer 2/VLAN

infrastructure.

Campus Redundancy provides the ability to separate the CS 1000E CP PM

Call Servers in a campus environment for “campus mirroring”. This feature

enables two CP PM Call Servers, one active and one redundant, to be

connected through an Ethernet network interface. Campus Redundancy can

operate using any vendor’s Layer 2 switching products, in addition to the

BayStack 470. The distance depends upon network parameter limitations

specified in Communication Server 1000: System Redundancy

(NN43001-507).

To separate the redundant CP PM Call Servers, the ELAN subnet and the

subnet of the High Speed Pipe (HSP) can be extended between the two

processors with an Ethernet switch, using Layer 2 protocol.

If the two CP PM Call Servers are collocated, they can be connected using a

standard CAT5e or CAT6 crossover cable, limited to 100 meters in length.

NN43041-310

Standard 01.11

October 2008

Installing and connecting CS 1000E hardware Page 103 of 466

For detailed information on Campus Redundancy, refer to Communication

Server 1000: System Redundancy (NN43001-507).

The Layer 2 switch allows the ELAN subnet and the subnet of the High Speed

Pipe (HSP) to be extended between the two processors. The

BayStack 470-24T provides full duplex wire-speed 100BaseT with no

significant packet loss (less than 0.001%) and delays of less than 100 usec.

The method used to connect CP PM Call Server 0 to CP PM Call Server 1

depends on the proximity of the units. If the units are co-located, follow

Procedure 9 to connect the CP PM Call Servers. If the units are configured for

Campus Redundancy, follow Procedure 10 to connect the CP PM Call

Servers.

Connecting co-located CP PM Call Servers

Follow Procedure 9 to connect co-located CP PM Call Servers.

Procedure 9

Connecting co-located CP PM Call Servers

Plug one end of the CAT5E RJ-45 crossover cable (NTRC17) into the

LAN 2 connector on the front of Call Server 0.

Plug the other end of the CAT5E RJ-45 NTRC17 crossover cable into the

LAN 2 connector on the front of Call Server 1.

End of Procedure

Connecting Campus Redundant CP PM Call Servers

The MultiLink Trunking (MLT) feature of the BayStack 470-24T enables the

two uplink fiber ports to be grouped but is not solely necessary for the two

uplink fiber ports to be linked. Grouping the uplink fiber ports increases

aggregate throughput up to 2 Gbps between sides with active redundant links.

The port-based VLANs used in the BayStack 470-24T switches operate in

accordance with the IEEE 802.1Q tagging rules. VLAN ports are grouped

into broadcast domains by assigning them to the same VLAN. Frames

received in one VLAN can be forwarded only within that VLAN. For more

information, see Communication Server 1000: System Redundancy

(NN43001-507).

Procedure 10

Connecting Campus Redundant CP PM Call Servers

Connect the CAT5E RJ-45 LAN 2 port of Call Server 0 to a 100BaseT

ELAN network interface on the local Baystack 470-24T switch.

Connect the CAT5E RJ-45 LAN 2 port of Call Server 1 to a 100BaseT port

on the remote Baystack 470-24T switch.

Link the two Baystack 470-24T switches with two high-speed single-mode

fiber uplinks (1 Gbps per link), using the built-in GBIC ports for dedicated

uplink connectivity.

Assign three VLANs to the BayStack 470-24T ports.

•

VLAN 1 - Default

— All 104 ports belong to the four BayStack 470-24T ports.

•

VLAN 2 - HSP

— Two ports connect CP PM packs HSP ports in Call Server 0 and

Call Server 1.

— Four high-speed fiber uplinks (GBIC ports)

•

VLAN 3 - ELAN

— Includes 2 ELAN network interfaces on the CP PM Call Servers,

for example, for ELAN connections for ISP1100 Signaling

Servers, MG 1000Es, Call Pilot, Symposium, OTM, Element

Manager.

— Four high-speed fiber uplinks (GBIC ports)

End of Procedure

Cabling the cards

The following sections describe the process required to cable the MGC and

CP PM cards.

Cabling the MGC

The existing 3-port SDI cable (NTBK48AA) is reused. It connects to the SDI

port on the Chassis. Figure 24 on page 109 shows front of MGC. The CE and

CT ports are reserved for the CP PM card only. The CE connects to the ELAN

Communication Server 1000E Installation and Commissioning

Page 108 of 466

Installing and connecting CS 1000E hardware

port of the call server, while the CT connects to the TLAN port of the call

server. The 1E and 2T ports must be attached to the layer 2 switch.

MGC Ethernet Capabilities

An MGC features six Ethernet interfaces set to auto-negotiate by default: four

on the faceplate (see Figure 24 on page 109), and two on the back. Figure 25

on page 110, Figure 26 on page 111, and Figure 27 on page 112 illustrate the

various ethernet connections.

Connecting the CS 1000E Core CP PM Call Servers to an

MG 1000E

An MG 1000E performs functions under the direct control of the CS 1000E

Core CP PM Call Server. The MG 1000E detects stimulus events from its

interface cards and passes these events to the CS 1000E Core CP PM Call

Server, where the high-level call processing decisions are made.

The NTBK48AA 3-port SDI cable connects to the SDI port on the Cabinet.

Figure 24 on page 109 shows front of MGC with the "bulkhead" connectors

(1E and 2T) that connect to numbers 1 and 2 bulkhead. The CE and CT

connect to the ELAN port. The 100 Base T ports 1 and 2 connect to the

bulkhead, while ports 1 and 2 in the lower left connect to the backplane.

Note: The MG1000E can be connected directly to the CS1000E ELAN

subnet, or it can be connected to the ELAN subnet through a Layer 2

switch.

Cabling the CP PM call server

In a typical configuration, the com (SDI) port of the CP PM call server is

routed through the backplane of the shelf to the 50-pin Amphinol connector

on the back of the shelf. A special cable is shipped with the CP PM call server

that adapts the 50-pin Amphinol to a 25-pin DB connector (NTAK19EC).

Port 0 is used for maintenance access, and Port 1 is for an external modem

connection.

Connect the ELAN of CP PM to the CE port of the MGC card or to the VLAN

of the external layer 2 switch that is dedicated to ELAN traffic for the system.

The following diagrams illustrate the different ways to connect the CP PM

Call Server, MGC, and CP PM Signaling Server cards.

Server), an upgrade of the loadware occurs based on the Centralized Upgrade

setting defined during the software install and the values set in overlay 143.

The default values are set so that the upgrade starts automatically once

registration is achieved with the Call Server.

There are six pieces of loadware that are updated on the MGC. These updates

are downloaded from the Call Server.

Configuring the CS 1000E CP PM Call Server

Introduction

The CS 1000E system requires the configuration of an IP telephony node.

The configuration data is stored in the BOOTP.TAB and CONFIG.INI files

on the CS 1000E. Copies of both files are maintained on each node

component (Signaling Server and Media Card).

The preconfigured IP telephony configuration files from the leader Signaling

Server must be imported. These files are saved on the CS 1000E as:

•

c:/u/db/node/nodex.cfg where x is the node number

•

c:/u/db/node/nodex.btp where x is the node number

IMPORTANT!

Do not attempt to alter the configuration files either manually or with

OTM’s ITG or IP Phone management. Use Element Manager only.

The node database files are backed up along with the customer database using

the LD 43 EDD command.

Configuring pseudo-terminals (PTYs)

CS 1000E provides two ports (COM1 and COM2) on the CPU. A Terminal

Server is used to provide additional serial ports for specific applications, such

as, CTY, MCT, PMS, and TRF. Each configured Terminal Server serial port

automatically starts an rlogin session with a user ID to a dedicated pseudo

(PTY) port in the CS 1000E system. Nortel recommends configuring at least

two PTYs for general use (rlogin sessions with no user ID). In practice, a

maximum of 14 PTYs can be used, leaving 2 TTYs for COM1 and COM2 on

the CPU card. Login to PTY is case sensitive.

Every PTY configured is given a user ID "PTYx", where x is the port number

assigned to the PORT prompt. If no input is entered for the PORT prompt, the

default value is the same as the TTY number. Nortel recommends using the

default value for easy management. When an rlogin session is initiated with

a user ID, the Call Server searches for a free PTY with a matching user ID.

The search starts with the highest configured PTY number and progresses in

descending order of the PTY number. If no free PTY with a matching user ID

is found, the connection is refused. In this case, TTY012 message is printed

on the administration terminal. When an rlogin session is initiated with no

user ID specified, the Call Server searches for a free PTY. The search starts

from the lowest configured PTY number and progresses in ascending order

of the PTY number. The first available PTY is used to open the rlogin session.

In order to minimize the probability of having a PTY configured for a specific

application being used for general rlogin sessions, PTYs of specific

applications are configured to start with the highest TTY number, such as 15,

and progress in descending order. PTYs for general use are configured to start

with the lowest number and progress in ascending order.

Follow Procedure 32 to configure pseudo-terminals.

Procedure 32

Configuring pseudo-terminals (PTYs)

The type of any Bandwidth Management Zone for MG 1000E with

conference resources configured must be shared.

Distortion in Music is expected when G.729AB codec is used. Hence the

Interzone and the Intrazone policies for an MG 1000E Bandwidth

Management Zone should have Best Quality to give preference to G711

codec to minimize of occurrence of music distortion.

IMPORTANT!

Currently, the CS 1000E only supports Recorded Announcement

Broadcast and Music Broadcast.

Ensure that the bandwidth provisioned is adequate to provide the acceptable

blocking level of the resources in the MG 1000E. Refer to the

Configuring Digitone Receivers

Digitone Receivers must be configured in each MG 1000E if any analog

terminals or trunks are equipped. The loop of the Digitone Receivers is the

superloop of the MG 1000E. The first MG 1000E in the superloop is on shelf

0, and the second MG 1000E’s on shelf 1. Sixteen units of DTMF tone

detection (DTR) are integrated within the controller (SSC) circuitry, or eight

Digitone Receiver units can be configured on each of card 14 and card 15.

These Digitone Receiver units are built in on the SSC card in the MG 1000E.

No additional hardware is required. If Digitone Receivers units are

configured in any other card slots, a receiver hardware pack must be equipped

in the slot. If no hardware is equipped, the unequipped receiver units may be

allocated during call processing, resulting in call failure.

Any additional tone signaling resources must be added and configured as IPE

cards.

CS 1000M system respectively. It also contains instructions for connecting a

maintenance terminal to the Nortel CP PM Signaling Server.

The NTDW61BAE5 model of the Nortel CP PM Signaling Server was

designed for use in a CS 1000E system. As such, it is inserted into a slot of

the Media Gateway (MG 1000E or MG 1000B). The Media Gateway also

hosts the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) that has Ethernet ports for

connecting to the ELAN and TLAN subnets of your CS 1000 system.

However, it is common in a CS 1000E system for the Call Server to be

connected to the MGC through these ELAN and TLAN Ethernet ports. If the

Call Server is not connected to the MGC through these Ethernet ports, the

NTDW61BAE5 model of the CP PM Signaling Server uses them to connect

to the ELAN and TLAN subnets of the CS 1000E system. If the Call Server

is using the MGC ELAN and TLAN Ethernet ports, the Nortel CP PM

Signaling Server is connected directly to the ELAN and TLAN Ethernet

switches from the faceplate ELAN and TLAN Ethernet ports.

The NTDW66AAE5 model of the Nortel CP PM Signaling Server was

designed for use in a CS 1000M system.

Figure 58 shows the faceplates of the two models of the Nortel CP PM

Signaling Server with labeling for all components (NTDW61BAE5 on the

Procedure 38

Connecting a Nortel CP PM Signaling Server

Note: Refer to Figure 58 when performing the following procedure.

Establish a maintenance terminal connection at the back of the shelf of

the IPMG. The com (SDI) port of the CP PM circuit card Signaling Server

is routed through the backplane of the shelf to the 50 pin MDF connector

on the back of the shelf. A special cable is shipped with the CP PM

signaling server that adapts the 50 pin MDF connector to a 25 pin DB

connector (NTAK19EC). A DTE-DTE null modem serial cable is required

to adapt the SDI port to a typical PC serial port.

a. Connect the NTAK19EC cable (shipped with the CP PM Signaling

Server) to the 50 pin MDF connector on the back of the desired shelf

of the IPMG.

b. Connect a DTE-DTE null modem serial cable to the 25 pin DB

connector at the end of the NTAK19EC cable. Connect the other end

of the DTE-DTE null modem serial cable to the serial port on the

maintenance terminal.

Insert the Signaling Server circuit card into an appropriate slot on the shelf

of the IPMG. The CP PM Signaling Server is hot-pluggable so it may be

inserted without powering off the system. The maintenance terminal now

has access to the CP PM Signaling Server through the 50-pin MDF

connector associated with the card slot that the CP PM Signaling Server

is inserted into on the IPMG.

Connect the Signaling Server to the TLAN subnet. Insert the RJ-45 CAT5

(or better) cable into the TLAN port (TLAN network interface) on the front

of the Signaling Server. The TLAN port is the middle one of the three

network interfaces.

Connect the Signaling Server to the ELAN subnet. Insert the RJ-45 CAT5

(or better) cable into the ELAN port (ELAN network interface) on the front

of the Signaling Server. The ELAN port is the bottom one of the three

Signaling Server software on an IBM X306m or HP DL320-G4 Signaling

Server.

IMPORTANT!

CP PM, IBM X306m and HP DL320-G4 Signaling Servers do not

support any Signaling Server software prior to CS 1000 Release 5.0.

IMPORTANT!

CS 1000 Release 5.0 Signaling Server software does not need to be

installed on the CP PM Signaling Server. It is delivered with the

Signaling Server software, operating system, applications and web files

pre-loaded onto the hard drive. Only basic system configuration

parameters need to be entered on the first boot of the CP PM Signaling

Server.

Before you begin

Before installing the software, you must do the following:

•

Connect and power up the Signaling Server. See “Connections” on

page 179.

•

For CP PM Signaling Servers, ensure that Switch S5 is set to position 2

(to support the internal hard disk drive)

•

For IBM X306m and HP DL320-G4 Signaling Servers, you must obtain

the CS 1000 Release 5.0 Signaling Server Software Install CD.

Installing the software

To install software and enter basic system configuration parameters on an

IBM X306m or HP DL320-G4 Signaling Server, complete Procedure 43.

Procedure 43

Installing Signaling Server software

Upon completion of Step 1, this procedure takes approximately 45 minutes to

complete.

From your Planning and Engineering group, obtain the following network

and IP Telephony data for this Signaling Server:

•

node ID for the IP Telephony node

•

node IP address for the IP Telephony node

•

hostname for the Signaling Server

•

ELAN network interface IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway

•

TLAN network interface IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway

•

ELAN network interface IP address of the Call Server

•

Primary and Alternate NRS IP addresses for this networked system.

Refer toIP Peer Networking: Installation and Commissioning

(NN43001-313)

•

NRS role, if applicable. Refer to IP Peer Networking: Installation and

Commissioning (NN43001-313)

Boot the Signaling Server from the Removable Media Device (RMD):

•

For IBM X306m, HP DL320-G4, or Nortel ISP1100 Signaling

Servers, insert the CS 1000 Release 5.0 Signaling Server Software

CD into the CD drive and press the RST button on the front panel of

the Signaling Server to trigger a cold boot. This forces the Signaling

Server to boot from the CD.

•

For a Nortel CP PM Signaling Server, insert the CS 1000 Release 5.0

Signaling Server Software CF card into the faceplate CF drive and

press the RST button on the faceplate of the Signaling Server to

trigger a cold boot. The CP PM System BIOS Configuration screen

appears (see Figure 61) with an instruction to press F to force the

Signaling Server to boot from the CF card.
