Pre-Release 11 Link Administration Instructions

The DLG should be on its own separate LAN segment. To effect this, you will need two Network Interface Cards (NICs) in the Avaya CT Server, one for client access and one for the connection between the DLG and the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver.

IP Addresses

It is strongly recommended that you use at least two IP addresses.

IP address for the DLG.

Make certain that you have the IP address or the DLG or its host name (if host names are used instead of IP addresses). See the DEFINITY switch administrator.

If you are using a separate LAN for your DLG (recommended) and all links go to a single switch, then you can use the default IP address, which is 192.168.25.10.

IP Address for the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver,

Verify that you have a local IP address for the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver on your Telephony Server. You will need this IP address for installing the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver. You may obtain this address from the network administrator or you may use the default address provided in the installation program (192.168.25.20) if you have a private LAN (as recommended) between the Telephony Server and the DEFINITY ECS switch. This local IP address should be different from the IP address used for the Avaya CT server, as recommended.

Client LAN Segment

See Chapter 4: Installing Avaya Computer Telephony TSAPI Client Software for more information about client-based Avaya CT requirements.

Guidelines for Setting Up a Private LAN

Follow these guidelines for implementing a private LAN for Avaya CT.

Use IP addresses within the following ranges:

-10.0.0.0 — 10.255.255.255

-172.16.0.0 — 172.31.255.255

-192.168.0.0 — 192.168.255.255

If You Intend to Use Host Names

You have the option of using host names, instead of IP addresses, when administering the DEFINITY LAN Gateway and the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver. If you use host names instead of IP addresses, each entry in the HOSTS file provides information about one host on the IP network. The DEFINITY LAN Gateway link connection is considered a host.
