Message Networking system capacities

The following table shows the system capacities for a Message Networking system.

System attribute S3210R/S3210 system capacity S3400-H system capacity
Number of subscribers (network-wide) 500,000 (250,000 with voice names)

Note: The existence of any Message Networking systems running on the S3210 server or Interchange 5.4 systems limits the number of network-wide subscribers with voiced names to 120,000 (40,000 when an Interchange 5.4 MAP5P is involved).

500,000 (250,000 with voice names)

Note: The existence of any Message Networking systems running on the S3210 server or Interchange 5.4 systems limits the number of network-wide subscribers with voiced names to 120,000 (40,000 when an Interchange 5.4 MAP5P is involved).

Number of remote machines per Message Networking. Note that due to traffic loads, it will be rare that the maximum of 500 will be reached. 500 (default of 1; average of 8 to 10) 500 (default of 500; average of 25)
SMTP Ports (includes VPIM and SMTP/MIME) 8 (default 0; possible values are 0 or 8) 20 (default 20)
Aria Digital ports 4 (default 4) 16 (default 16)
Serenade Digital ports 4 (default 4) 16 (default 16)
AUDIX Digital TCP/IP Digital ports 4 (default 4) 12 (default 12)
Analog ports 12 (default 0; possible values are 0, 4, 8, or 12) 16 or 24 (default 0; possible values are 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24).

The number of supported analog ports on the S3400-H server depends on the motherboard type and the voice board type:

  • S3400-H (nonintegrated video and LAN): A maximum of four boards (16 ports) is supported. Possible values are 0, 4, 8, 12, and 16; the default is 0.
  • S3400-H: (integrated video and LAN): A maximum of two boards (24 ports) is supported on the S3400-H server. Possible values are 0, 12, or 24; the default is 0.

    Note: The 4-port analog board is supported in systems migrating from another server to the S3400-H (integrated video and LAN). A maximum of two boards (8 ports) is supported. Possible values are 0, 4, or 8; the default is 0.

Average message delivery time

Note: The average message delivery time does not include the processing time at the sending and receiving systems. It also does not include the use of Enterprise Lists, which can be quite large and processor-intensive.

15 minutes 15 minutes
Call Detail Recording (CDR) records 100,000 (an average of 10,000 records per day for 10 days) 200,000 (an average of 20,000 records per day for 10 days)
Number of dial plan entries per remote machine 2,000 2,000
Networked Interchange 5.4 systems and Message Networking systems (network-wide) 25

Note: The existence of any Message Networking systems running on the S3210 server or Interchange 5.4 systems limits the number of network-wide subscribers with voiced names to 120,000 (40,000 when an Interchange 5.4 MAP5P is involved).

Performance

See the note below the table for information about performance.

 
The total message minutes supported is 3,768 (1,884 one-minute messages in and 1,884 one-minute messages out) during the network busy hour, independent of the sending or receiving encoding type. S3400-H with integrated video and LAN: The total message minutes supported is 9,408 (4,704 one-minute messages in and 4,704 one-minute messages out) during the network busy hour, independent of the sending or receiving type.

S3400-H with nonintegrated video and LAN: The total message minutes supported is 9,192 (4,596 one-minute messages in and 4,596 one-minute messages out) during the network busy hour, independent of the sending or receiving type.

Note: If the Message Networking system nears the maximum supported traffic during the busy hour, do not perform remote machine updates during this period. In addition, if the Message Networking system's busy hour occurs during the time that the nightly audits run (which might occur on systems that experience heavy traffic with international systems), the audits might be affected.

Note: There are a number of factors that can affect system performance, including:

  • Normal message traffic
  • Enterprise List traffic
  • Message size
  • Message types (voice, fax, text, binary)
  • Enterprise List administration (static, dynamic, etc.)
  • Number of Message Networking and Interchange systems involved
  • Remote machine performance
  • Protocols involved (SMTP/MIME, VPIM, etc.)
  • WAN performance
  • Voice transcoding
  • Other activities occurring on the Message Networking system (such as audits, reports, LDAP access, system administration)
  • Remote machine errors (such as full mailboxes, nonexistent subscribers)
  • Protocol delivery schedules (some can be modified from the defaults)
