Administering the Switch
Setting Up Your LAN for Avaya Computer Telephony
This section applies to the following platforms, which rely on the
●DEFINITY Servers CSI, SI, and R

Before you administer the DEFINITY switch (including the DLG), make sure that you have determined how your LAN is set up.
Server LAN Segment (connectivity to the switch)
Server LAN segment functions are in the DLG administrative domain. For
●The DLG must be connected to the LAN that the Avaya Computer Telephony server uses (the Avaya Computer Telephony server communicates with the switch via the DEFINITY G3 PBX Driver).
●The DLG should be on its own separate LAN segment. To effect this, you will need two Network Interface Cards (NICs) in the Avaya Computer Telephony 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 Computer Telephony server, as recommended.
