Chapter 8: Testing the complete configuration
This section provides tests for the complete configuration, including the control and signaling
networks and the telephones and consoles.
This section provides tests to:
review the status of the configuration.
test the duplication link to the servers (S8700-series only)
test the IP server interfaces, expansion interfaces, and TDM buses in the port networks.
test the telephones and other equipment.
See LED indicators on page 147 for information regarding the LED status indicators for the
Avaya Ethernet switch(es), uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), and different circuit packs.
Note:
Note: Circuit pack positions are usually given by cabinet, and slot. They may also be
given by port. The term “cabinet” refers to five G650 Media Gateways
TDM-cabled together in a rack, making up one port network. A port network is
defined as a group of media gateways connected together with one TDM bus.
Perform these tasks to test the configuration:
!CAUTION:
CAUTION: To prevent unnecessary trouble tickets, do not enable the alarms (Alarm
Origination feature) until all installation and administration procedures are
completed.
