Installation & Operation Manual 248 Document # LTRT-92224
Mediant 8000
• An optional timeout parameter allows the performance of a Graceful Lock
on a Media Gateway board – in this case, calls are not torn down
immediately; however, the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) or remote SIP
agent are informed that the Media Gateway board is to be closed within a
specified timeout period. New calls are not accepted after starting the
Graceful Lock sequence, but existing calls are allowed to proceed and
terminate normally. When the graceful timeout expires, all remaining calls
are terminated and the board is reset. If all calls are terminated prior to the
graceful timeout, the board is immediately reset.
Unlock – restores service on the Media Gateway board. The board is rebooted
and the service is restored. It may take up to 5 minutes before the service is
restored (and the Operational State of the Media Gateway board is updated
accordingly).
Make Board Redundant – makes a regular Media Gateway board into the
Redundant board. For more information, see Section 'Configuring Redundant
Media Gateway Board' on page
249.
Make Board Non-Redundant – makes a Redundant board into a regular board.
Switchover – available on the regular board only; forces an activity switchover to
the Redundant board. The regular board remains in disabled state after a
manual switchover action until user explicitly executes unlock action on it.
Switchback – available on the Redundant board after switchover only; forces
activity switchback to the regular board. Redundant board is automatically reset
and returns to service.
Move TP board – available on VoP boards (TP-6310 / TP-8410). TP boards may
be moved from an existing slot to a free slot, along with their entire configuration.
This feature may be used for system troubleshooting or due to changes in PSTN
cabling.
Clone TP board – available on VoP boards (TP-6310 / TP-8410). TP boards may
be cloned from an existing slot to a free slot, along with their entire configuration.
This feature may be used for copying a working configuration to a new board.
