Product Overview

1.1 Introduction

This chapter includes the following topics:

IP Platform Overview

IP Platform Features

IP Platform Required and Optional Hardware

1.2IP Platform Overview

The AlphaServer Intelligent Peripheral (IP) Platform provides a full suite of hardware and software components for voice processing, telephony and data communications, management, processing, and storage. These components are combined to make a high performance, high availability, rackmount-configured IP Platform, that meets certain standards and specifications.

There are two basic AlphaServer IP Platform configurations upon which all platform systems are built:

IP Simplex System

IP Duplex System

There may also be custom variations of the IP platform.

Each rackmount platform requires a console terminal to display all system alarm messages and manage alarm conditions.

Basic AlphaServer IP Platform management functions are designed to ensure the integrity of the platform and to allow for the management of the platform itself. The management functions include alarming based on critical events, for example; hardware failure, logging of events and activities, management of the individual resources, and system security. These functions are described in the Intelligent Peripheral Fault Manager for Tru64 UNIX Installation and User's Guide.
