Avaya manual Samp connections for S8500B

About the Server Availability Management Processor

●SAMP Ethernet 1 is not used.

●SAMP Ethernet 2 is for local access. This port is for on-site services personnel to access the SAMP with the craft login.

●The USB interface is used to connect a USB modem for remote dial-in and dial-out access. The media server and the SAMP share this modem connection for remote maintenance, administration, and alarming. For remote dial-in, the user first establishes a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) session that terminates at the SAMP. The user can then use the craft login to establish an SSH (Secure Shell) or an HTTPS (Secure Web) session to the SAMP or the host.

The SAMP also communicates with the host in-band by way of an on-board industry-standard Ethernet controller on the PCI bus of the host with an internal link to the SAMP.
