ITG Trunk 2.0 ISDN Signaling Link (ISL) Description, Installation and Operation
5If you are upgrading an 8-port ITG Trunk Card to support DCHIP
functionality, you need one hardware upgrade kit (NTZC47AA f or large
systems, and NTZC47BA for small systems). Both kits contain a DCH
PC Card (NTWE07) a pigtail cable (NTCW84EA) and two versions of
the I/O panel breakout cable. The NTZC47AA contains a D-Channel
interface cable (NTND26AA) that extends from a 15-pin filter in the I/O
panel to the MSDL card. The NTZC47BA contains an external
D-Channel cable (NTWE04AD) to connect to the I/O breakout cable on
the SDI/DCH card.
6Open a Telnet session to the 8-port trunk card. At the ITG> prompt,
enter
itgCardShow
Write down the IP address and other card data.
7If required for an 8-port upgrade, install an MSDL card (minimu m
vintage NT6D80) or SDI/DCH card (minimum vintage NTAK02BB). Be
sure to install the I/O panel breakout cable for the SDI/DCH card. If
cards are in place, make sure each card has an available port.
8Check that the customer site has a Nortel Networks Netgear RM356
Modem Router (or equivalent) on the E-LAN. The modem router
provides remote support access to ITG Trunk and other IP-enabled
Nortel Networks products on the Meridian 1 site.
9Identify the TNs of the ITG Trunk 1.0 cards that you will be upgra ding.
Open MAT ITG M1 IP Trunk main window. The TNs are listed.
Install the DCHIP hardware upgrade kit

In this procedure, you upgrade an ITG Trunk 1.0 node by installing at least

one eight-port DCHIP hardware upgrade kit.

Note: Skip this step if the DCHIP functionality is provide d by a 24-port

ITG Trunk 2.0 card.

1Disable all 8-port ITG trunk cards in the node that you are upgrading.
Disable the cards in LD32 (DISI l s c for large systems, DISI c for
Option 11). Wait for the NPR0011 message, which indicates that all
units on each card are disabled.
Note:
Whenever you work on the card, be sure you are wearing an
anti-static wrist strap.
