S3400-H server

This topic provides information about the Message Networking S3400-H server.

The S3400-H server includes the following components:

• Chassis
• Capacities
• Processor
• Voice/fax ports
• Storage devices
• Controllers
• Ports
• Remote maintenance board
• Monitor, keyboard, and mouse
• Modems
• Uninterruptible power supply
• Terminals
• Operating system

Chassis

The chassis is equipped with two cooling fans. The number of PCI slots in the chassis depends on the server model:

• Integrated video and LAN model is equipped with four PCI slots.
• Nonintegrated video and LAN model is equipped with six PCI slots.

Capacities

The Message Networking system with an S3400-H server supports 500,000 subscribers (250,000 with voice names), 500 remote machines (with an average of 25), and 24 analog ports (integrated video and LAN model with D120JCT-LS analog port board).

If Enterprise Lists are being used, the maximum of 500,000 subscribers (250,000 with voice names) includes Enterprise Lists and any voice names for Enterprise Lists.

Note: The existence of a Message Networking Release 1.1 S3210 system or Interchange 5.4 system in the network limits the number of subscribers with voice names to 120,000 network-wide (40,000 when an Interchange 5.4 MAP5P system is involved).

Processor

The server CPU is a 2 GHz processor and is equipped with 512 MB of RAM.

Voice/fax ports

The number and type of analog port boards supported in the S3400-H depend on the server model:

• Integrated video and LAN: Either 4-port or 12-port analog boards are supported. However, you cannot install both type of boards in the same server. A maximum of two analog port boards is supported to provide up to 8 ports (with two 4-port boards) and 24 ports (with two 12-port boards) of AMIS or Octel Analog Networking.

  A maximum of 4 fax ports are supported for simultaneous use on the 12-port board. Fax channels are assigned dynamically when fax is detected on an incoming call and when an outgoing call includes a fax component. If all four fax channels are in use simultaneously, retries might be experienced.

• Nonintegrated video and LAN: Up to four 4-port analog boards are supported to provide up to 16 ports of AMIS or Octel Analog Networking.

Storage devices

The server is equipped with three SCSI disks, with hardware RAID Level 5 data redundancy and a DVD-RAM drive, which is used for software installation and backups.

A portion of the hard disk is reserved for the storage of nonspeech data, such as data for the Linux operating system, the Message Networking system server executables and data, and the Message Networking system software executables. This disk area is important for proper Message Networking system operations and cannot be changed or used for any other purposes.

The rest of the hard disk is used for storing messaging components such as voice messages.

Controllers

For the S3400-H integrated video and LAN server, the video and LAN controllers reside on the motherboard. For the S3400-H nonintegrated video and LAN, one of the two LAN controllers reside on the motherboard.

Ports

The server contains the following ports:

• Parallel port: 1
• Serial port: 2
• USB ports: For the S3400-H with nonintegrated video and LAN, there are 4 USB ports. For the S3400-H with integrated video and LAN, there are 3 USB ports.
• Ethernet port: For the S3400-H with nonintegrated video and LAN, there is one 10/100 Ethernet port. For the S3400-H with integrated video and LAN, there is one 10/100/1000 Ethernet port and one 10/100 Ethernet port. Only the 10/100/1000 port is used, the 10/100 connector is capped.

Remote maintenance board

A remote maintenance board is provided to facilitate remote diagnostics and repair.

Note: For international Message Networking systems, an external modem is required to support the RMB.

Monitor, keyboard, and mouse

A monitor, keyboard, and mouse are required for local system operation. A monitor is available for purchase for use with the Message Networking system. Depending on your location, the keyboard and mouse are provided with the system. Contact your sales representative for more information.

Modems

For domestic U.S. systems, the RMB uses an internal modem. For systems outside the U.S., an external modem is required and is provided.

Uninterruptible Power Supply

An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with 30-minute holdover is required for the S3400-H server.

Terminals

While it is recommended that you use the Web interface to administer the Message Networking system, you can also administer the system remotely through the use of a modem and one of the following terminals:

• Avaya 4410 (for PROCOMM PLUS 4410 or Terranova emulation)
• Avaya 715
• Avaya 4425
• vt100 (for vt100 or vt131 emulation)

Operating system

Linux is the operating system used for Message Networking. Linux is a UNIX-like operating system that runs on a variety of servers.
