236 Install and configure IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node
The IP trunk cards must be enabled later after the card properties and
optionally, the IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) software, has been transmitted from
TM 3.1 to the IP trunk cards.
Configure IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) data in TM 3.1
Before the IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) data is configured in TM 3.1, obtain
all the IP addresses for the new IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node from the
network administrator and add them to the installation summary sheet. Use
an IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) Installation Summary Sheet to facilitate data
entry into TM 3.1 (and later). Obtain the node IP addresses of any existing
IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) nodes in the network.
Refer to "ITG engineering guidelines" (page 87) for information on IP Trunk
3.01 (and later) IP address requirements.
An IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node is a collection of Media Card 32-port and
ITG-Pentium 24-port trunk cards in a Mer idian 1/CS 1000M system for a
selected customer. Each node in the IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) network has
a property sheet that configures the options that apply to the node’s IP
trunk cards.
TM 3.1 stores the Node Properties data. This data generates the BOOTP.1
file. The data is transmitted to the Active Leader.
The bootptab file is a configuration file that downloads to the Active Leader
card. It contains the list of cards and related IP and MAC addresses for the
node. Bootptab is short for "bootp table". When transmitted to the IP Trunk
3.01 (and later) Active Leader IP tr unk card, it is renamed "BOOTP.1".
Add an IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node in TM 3.1 manually
This section uses the TM 3.1 ITG ISDN IP Trunk application to manually
add and configure an IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node and add IP trunk cards
to the node. A network of multiple IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) nodes can be
configured and managed from the same TM 3.1 PC. Every IP Trunk 3.01
(and later) node must first be added manually on the TM 3.1 PC and the TM
3.1 IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) configuration data must be transmitted to the
IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node during installation.
After adding a new IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node on the TM 3.1 PC,
the dialing plans for all existing IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) nodes must be
manually updated to include the destination node dial plan digits entries for
the new IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node.
There are several tabs across the top of the ITG Node Properties window.
The following sections describe the windows that appear when each of
these tabs is clicked.
