S8500 LSP license file

The PE interface on an S8500 LSP supports three adjuncts:

Call Management System (CMS)

Application Enablement Services (AESVCS)

Call Detail Recording (CDR)

The S8500 as a primary controller can connect to gateways and endpoints that use both C-LANs and the PE interface. The traffic over these interfaces can be load balanced.

S8500 LSP license file

The license file for an LSP must have the following attributes:

The Local Survivable Processor (FEAT_LSP) field is set to y.

A Module ID (MID) that is greater than 1. This value is set by the license file and cannot be administered in Communication Manager.

A System ID (SID). The SID is unique to the system configuration. The primary controller and all LSPs have the same SID.

The serial number of an H.248 media gateway to serve as the license serial number host.

During initial installation, when the LSP server is reset, the LSP sends this serial number to the primary controller. The primary controller then matches the serial number to the serial number of an existing media gateway. The primary controller sends the IP address of the media gateway back to the LSP. To verify the license, the LSP can then contact that media gateway and request the serial number. The LSP compares the serial number from the media gateway with the serial number from the license of the LSP.

About SSH

Secure Shell (SSH) is both a computer program and an associated network protocol that you use to log in to and run commands on a networked computer. SSH provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. Avaya strongly recommends that you use SSH instead of Telnet for most interactive connections to the Avaya media servers and other devices on a customer network.

To use SSH, a third-party SSH client must be installed on your computer. PuTTY is one such client. You can download PuTTY from http://www.putty.nl/download.html.
