Packet Interface Service Operations
The following sections provide more background information about service
operations for the Packet Interface circuit.
Administration
PKT-INTs are automatically administered as a component of an IPSI circuit pack.
See add ipserver-interface, remove ipserver-interface, test packet-interface,
status packet-interface, and reset packet-interface.
Packet Interface Circuit Replacement
When replacing a Packet Interface circuit as part of a TN2312 IPSI circuit pack,
follow the procedure used for replacing an IPSI circuit pack.
Demand Reset of a Packet Interface Board
A demand reset of an active IPSI’s Packet Interface via the entry of a reset
packet-interface command is denied by system software if the Packet Interface
is in service (has not been placed in an out-of-service state by background
maintenance software). Otherwise, a reset of an in-service Packet Interface
circuit would cause severe service disruption including the loss of all existing calls
and dropped links to adjuncts such as AUDIX. As part of the automatic recovery
action initiated when a fatal hardware-fault condition is detected, the software that
controls Packet Interface maintenance puts a Packet Interface circuit in the
out-of-service state if that circuit pack has been reset three times within the last 15
minutes.
4 Services Interface – The S8700 Media Servers dedicated Ethernet connection to a laptop.
This link is active only during on-site administration or maintenance and the services
interface can link to the non-active server through a telnet session.
5 Connection from the Servers to the Ethernet Switch.
6 Ethernet Switch – A device that provides for port multiplication by having more than one
network segment. In an IP Connect environment, the Ethernet Switch should support 802.1
ip/Q, VLAN and 10/100 mbps.

8Port Network – optional configuration of Media Gateways that provides increased switch
capacity.
9 IPSI – provides transport of CCMS messages over IP allowing the S8700 Media Server to
communicate with the port networks.
