Web Portal Tutorial Guide v2.4

Introduction

The articles in the the Web Portal Tutorial describe the setup and configuration of a Tdev system consisting of TMP6400 devices and TMS1600 switches, or a Tmedia TMG3200 system using the Web Portal component of Toolpack.

Please note that most of the information panels of the Web Portal provide you with configuration and status information. Other than the last section in this guide (i.e., status menus), all sections are designed to show you how to configure your Tmedia or Tdev system; therefore, they do not describe how to navigate and interpret system status. To learn about system status information, refer to the final section of this guide.

Finally, it is recommended that you follow the order of the tasks here in order to successfully configure a Tmedia or Tdev system, particularly if you want to configure signaling stacks or line interfaces.

Before you begin

This document assumes that the Tmedia or Tdev devices are installed as described in their Quick Reference Guides and that communication has been established with the control network.

(Note: The TMG3200 is shipped with the Tmedia Web Portal preinstalled, while the TMP6400 requires that Toolpack be installed as described in the TMP6400 Installation Guide.)

Furthermore, in the case of the TMP6400 and the initial configuration of the Toolpack application server, the following will have been provided:

• The TMP6400 to which the Web Portal will first connect.
• The TMP6400 will have been pre-configured with its physical TDM interface.
• The serial number of the TMP6400 will have been entered into the configuration file.
• The application software for the TMP6400 devices will have been pre-installed on the Toolpack application server, as described in the TMP6400 Installation Guide.

This document also assumes familiarity with topics, such as ISDN signaling, SIP signaling, and SS7 signaling.

Key concepts

• System: A system is defined as the complete solution that is designed for a network. If a system solution is comprised of 4 TMP6400’s and a TMS1600, then the combination of these TelcoBridges devices is termed a system.
• Hardware: The TMP6400, TMG3200, or TMS1600 are referred to as a hardware device or hardware adapter.
• Line Interface: The physical TDM module installed on the TelcoBridges device is referred to as a line interface.

SIGTRAN

SIGTRAN enables the SS7 network to be extended into the IP network. A number of SIGTRAN configurations are possible based upon the apllication. They are listed below as follows:

• M2PA system: In this configuration the SS7 network extends between two signalling gateways.
• M2UA system:
• M3UA system:

• Adding an Adapter
• Create Line Interfaces
• Create Line services
• Configure SCTP
• Configure M2PA
• Create a SAP
• Add M2PA Links
• Edit Destination Addresses
• Create an MTP3 Configuration
  • Configure Point Codes
  • Create an MTP3 Stack
  • Create an MTP3 Network
  • Create a Linkset
  • Create MTP3 Routes
  • Assign MTP3 Routes
• Configure ISUP
  • Create an ISUP Stack
  • Create an ISUP Network
  • Configure an ISUP User Part
  • Configure an ISUP I/F
  • Create ISUP CIC Groups
  • Create a NAP
