Overview
These guidelines will assist you in planning an installation of a 3300 IP Communications
Platform. The guidelines describe specific areas of the product that need to be considered
before installation. Also, field experience highlights specific areas that might not have previously
been covered. These guidelines should not be considered as a comprehensive list, but as
useful reminders or pointers that should be considered before installation.
The contents of this document gather general platform guidelines together. Where there are
guidelines that are specific to a feature or a particular use of a product, then this document may
contain references to those specific documents. Typical examples of this include references to
"Resiliency" or use of IP networking and Clustering configurations where specific documents
can provide more extensive detail.
In planning an installation other documents should also be referenced in addition to these
Engineering Guidelines. Most of these can be found on Mitel-On-Line and are highlighted in
the following section "About the 3300 ICP Documentation Set".
