In this document, we consider that:

• Racks and boards are created and in service.
• VoIP boards (GD or INTIP) are configured and in service.
• Corresponding software locks are available on OmniPCX side.
• Ghost Z sets (for the Nomadic VoIP mode) are defined on OmniPCX side.
• H323 trunk groups (used for the Nomadic VoIP mode) have been created.
• The Nomadic gateway has been configured through the Web Administration tool
(this gateway is in fact the IP address of the INTIP/GD board).
