Channel Mapping

An information screen appears confirming that the switch extension has been mapped to the channel.

9.Press ENTER to continue.

NOTE:

The Voice Equipment screen is not updated until the Channel to PBX Extension screen is closed. If you wish to verify your mapping at any time during the procedure, press the F6 (Cancel) key twice to cancel out of the Channel to PBX Extension and the Assign screen. This will cause the INTUITY system to redraw the Voice Equipment screen.

10.Repeat Steps 6 through 9 for each channel that needs a switch extension.

11.Press F6 (Cancel) until you reach the INTUITY Administration menu.

12.Return to Task 10, "Administer the Lucent INTUITY System for Operation with the MERLIN LEGEND" on page 2-32.

Verify Channel State

The procedure is used to verify that the state of the channel is in-service (Inserv) and that the channels are ready to be tested.

The INTUITY system has four possible port states:

In-Service (Inserv)

Channel is ready to accept telephone calls. There may be active calls on this channel if the system is operational.

Facility-out-of-service (Foos)

The channel is not inservice. The Foos state occurs when a channel has been released through the Voice Board Diagnostics screen to Inserv, and it does not detect loop current. A channel in the Foos state should automatically convert to the Inserv state when it detects loop current, but it may need to be reset.

Manually-out-of-service (Manoos)

The channel has been busied-out under the Voice Board Diagnostics screen, or the channel is on a new IVC6 circuit card. A channel in the Manoos state will remain in the Manoos state until it is released under the Voice Board Diagnostics screen.

Non-Existent (NONEX or no entry on any screen)

The system does not see the channel. The system will not see a channel that has not been properly activated even if the IVC6 is present. To change a channel from non-existent to recognized, the remote maintenance center must activate it.

Release 3 specifications

Lucent Technologies Release 3 was a significant milestone in the evolution of telecommunications. Launched in the late 1990s, it represented a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to improve network performance, reliability, and scalability. Aimed primarily at enhancing communication services, Release 3 showcased advanced technologies and features that reshaped the industry landscape.

One of the standout features of Release 3 was its support for both circuit-switched and packet-switched networks. This dual capability allowed service providers to utilize a single platform to provide a variety of services, including traditional voice services and emerging data applications. The integration of these two technologies led to more efficient use of network resources and improved service quality.

Release 3 also emphasized flexibility and modularity. Its architecture was designed to support a range of hardware and software configurations, enabling telecom operators to customize their deployments according to specific business needs. This modular design allowed for easier upgrades and scaling, which was essential as the demand for bandwidth and services continued to grow.

Another key technology featured in Release 3 was its advanced signaling and control capabilities. By implementing protocols like SS7 and integrating them with IP-based communications, Lucent enabled more efficient call routing and management. This capability was critical for managing increasing traffic loads and offering enhanced features like caller ID, call waiting, and other value-added services that were becoming popular at that time.

In addition, Release 3 introduced improved quality of service (QoS) mechanisms, critical for ensuring that voice and data services could coexist on the same network without degradation. This was especially important as the world began to embrace the Internet, leading to a surge in data-intensive applications that needed reliable delivery.

Security was another focus with Release 3, as telecom operators faced growing concerns about fraud and cyber threats. Enhanced encryption methods and secure access controls were built into the system, providing operators with the tools needed to safeguard their networks and customer data.

Overall, Lucent Technologies Release 3 represented a forward-looking approach to telecommunications, combining innovative technology with the flexibility needed in a rapidly changing industry. It laid the groundwork for future advancements in both voice and data communications, helping operators to adapt to the burgeoning digital landscape. As a result, it played a pivotal role in the transition towards more integrated and efficient telecommunication networks.
