IP Line Description, Installation and Maintenance

Upgrade the ITG-P 24-port line cards to IP Line 4.5

Note: Element Manager cannot be used with the Meridian 1 system, as
a Signaling Server is required in the system configuration.
CS 1000 systems require the ITG-P 24-port line cards to be running IP Line
4.5.

Configure IP Line 4.5 data using Element Manager

Element Manager can be used to manually add and configure an IP
Telephony node on CS 1000 systems. Multiple nodes can be configured and
managed from Element Manager.
Node definition
A node is defined as a collection of Signaling Servers and Voice Gateway
Media Cards. Each node in the network has a unique Node ID. This Node ID
is an integer value. A node has only one Primary Signaling Server or Leader
Voice Gateway Media Card. All the other Voice Gateway Media Cards are
defined as Followers.
WARNING
In CS 1000 systems, OTM 2.2 is required to upgrade an
ITG-P 24-port line card running IP Line 2.2 (or earlier) to
IP Line 4.5. Once the card’s software has been upgraded
to IP Line 4.5 using OTM 2.2, configuration,
administration, and maintenance tasks can be performed
using Element Manager.
Refer to “ITG-P 24-port card upgrades” in
Communication Server 1000S: Upgrade Procedures
(553-3031-258) for the procedure to upgrade an ITG-P
24-port line card to IP Line 4.5 software.
