5.5.11 FX20 Card
The FX10/FX20 Card Details form is similar to the FE10, shown in Figure 5-107.
5.5.12 POTS24 Card
The iMAP POTS24/POTS24C card (referred to forward as POTS24) is a single slot service module that provides 24 analog
loopstart line circuits on the iMAP 9000 system.The POTS24 card supports VoIP using:
• MGCP (Media Gateway Control Protocol)
• Session Initiated Protocol (SIP)
The RTP (Real-Time Protocol, RFC 3550) configuration specifies how the card will exchange bearer packets with the call
agent over the network. Once the IP provisioning is done for the card’s virtual Ethernet interface, the RTP attributes can be
provisioned.
Note: The POTS24 must have IP, MGCP/SIP, and RTP protocol attributes provisioned in association with the card in order to provide
service. Therefore, the POTS24 card cannot be completely auto-provisioned to an in-service state; some manual configuration
is required for each card that cannot be specified in the auto-provisioning profiles. For a full explanation of these attributes,
refer to the section on provisioning POTS in the iMAP User Guide.
Note: Any modification of RTP parameters requires the card to be disabled
Note: In release 9.0, there are separate software loads for the POTS24 card, one for supporting MGCP and another for supporting
SIP. Therefore, one card can only support one type of protocol or the other.
Figure 5-109 shows the POTS24 Card Create Form which shows the protocol choice, while subsequent figures show the
POTS24 Card Details Form and how they display MGCP or SIP attributes. Note that the IP/RTP subtab of the Protocols tab
has the same values regardless of whether MGCP or SIP is configured.
