Introduction

bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Overview of CallVisor ASAI Over the
bbbbbbbb
DEFINITY LAN Gateway
CallVisor ASAI over the DEFINITY LAN Gateway is a communications interface
that provides the functionality of the Adjunct/Switch Application Interface (ASAI)
using an Ethernet transport instead of a Basic Rate Interface (BRI) transport. It
is supported by DEFINITY Communications System Generic 3V4, and by
Generic G3V2 and Generic 3V3 (except for Generic 3VS) after a field
maintenance release has been loaded.
The DEFINITY LAN Gateway system (ED-1E546-70) is composed of the system
assembly and a software application. The system assembly is a Multi-Function
Board (TN2208) and an Alarm Board (TN2170) inserted into a DEFINITY carrier.
The software application serves as an ISDN brouter of ASAI messages through
a TCP ‘‘tunnel’’ via 10BaseT Ethernet.
The ASAI-Ethernet transport option can either replace or supplement BRI. For
example, an ASAI-Ethernet link may replace an ASAI-BRI link if more throughput
is desired for the same client application. Or, the ASAI-Ethernet transport option
may be used in addition to the ASAI-BRI transport option if a client application is
being added to the system and the customer does not want to disturb an existing
client application.
Because the DEFINITY LAN Gateway requires its own administrative information
(not found on DEFINITY), it is necessary to administer the system assembly
(TN2170 and TN2208) as well as the DEFINITY switch. For the system
assembly to work with the LAN, the proper TCP/IP parameters must be set up,
and information about the clients who will use the ASAI-Ethernet service must be
administered on the system assembly.

Introduction
CallVisor ASAI Over the DEFINITY LAN Gateway is provided with a default set of administered parameters, but customers can also administer the LAN parameters and client information to conform to their networks.
NOTE 1:
AT&T support services for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system will not troubleshoot a customer LAN. If the customer LAN is experiencing difficulties, customers should follow the escalation path supplied by their LAN provider.
NOTE 2:
DEFINITY switch administration of ASAI does not change when using CallVisor ASAI over the DEFINITY LAN Gateway.
Depending on the system setup desired, customers can configure and administer the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system in several ways:
Using telnet over TCP/IP Using a dumb terminal dedicated to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway circuit
pack Using the RS-232 port of a PC or host attached to the DEFINITY LAN
Gateway circuit pack.
A menu-driven interface offers ease of administration, and help screens are available if assistance is needed. In addition, security features explained in this chapter help guard against unauthorized access.
System Hardware
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
The application for the ASAI-Ethernet interface is supported by a system assembly, a ‘‘sandwich’’ of the two boards mentioned previously, the TN2208 (Multi-Function Board) and the TN2170 (Alarm Board). Figure 1-1 shows the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly.

NOTE:
The system assembly is also used to support DEFINITY AUDIX. However, the components are populated differently for DEFINITY LAN Gateway and for DEFINITY AUDIX, so the hardware is not interchangeable. Be careful not to confuse a DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly with a DEFINITY AUDIX system assembly when installing or upgrading system software for either product.

Introduction
The DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly can be distinguished from the DEFINITY AUDIX system assembly by the ‘‘TN’’ codes on the circuit packs and by a DEFINITY LAN Gateway label. The DEFINITY AUDIX system assembly uses TN566 (not shipped on new systems), TN566B, TN567, and TN2169 or TN2170. The DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly uses TN2170 and TN2208.
The TN2170 circuit pack supports a hard disk, Ethernet controller, and removable media. It also supports a serial port, an additional analog modem port, and remote maintenance hardware.
The TN2208 circuit pack supports a 32Mhz 486SLC Central Processing Unit (CPU) with 16MB of fixed (non-socketed) memory. It has 2 serial ports and a user interface/Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel. Naturally, it also has an interface to DEFINITY call control and switching fabric.
System Software
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
The software that provides the DEFINITY LAN Gateway application on the system assembly comes preloaded on the system when it is shipped from the factory. It is also supplied on removable media that can be reinstalled or used to upgrade an existing system.
The function of the software is to act as a mapper (or brouter) for ASAI messages. It links an ISDN network (DEFINITY call control) to a TCP/IP network (computer client) by moving ASAI messages back and forth from Q.921 synchronous data frames to TCP/IP Ethernet packets. It also associates computer clients (by their TCP/IP network addresses) to physical ports on DEFINITY that are administered as ASAI extensions.
This mapping provides a virtual point-to-point connection between a particular computer client and an associated port on DEFINITY. This arrangement continues to support the ASAI ability to sense when a particular computer client connection is lost and send an alarm. It also provides a more secure environment by fixing the addresses of the clients that may receive DEFINITY LAN Gateway service.

Upgrading Your Existing System

If you want to have CallVisor ASAI over the DEFINITY LAN Gateway in a
non-supported switch, you must upgrade it with a field maintenance release of
G3V4 software. Contact the Technical Service Center at 1 800 248-1234 for
more information. (You will be prompted for your Social Security Number and
4-digit PIN.)
If you attempt to upgrade from a pre-G3V4 switch, you must remove the
translations (assuming you had the TN2208 circuit pack aliased as a BRI circuit
pack in the pre-G3V4 switch).
!
WARNING:
If you upgrade your system yourself, follow these precautions: To prevent damage to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly,
make sure that you have connected the system assembly adapter cables to the port connectors on the back of the switch (see Step 2 in Task 5: Install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway System Assembly in Chapter 2) before you insert the system assembly in the switch carrier.
You can install the system assembly in the switch when the switch is powered on or off. When the assembly is inserted in the slots of the switch carrier, it will automatically power up, run diagnostics, and boot. To avoid a disk crash, never remove the assembly without first completing the shutdown procedure to shut down the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system (and allowing the disk to completely spin down).
For the same reason, do not cycle the power on the switch (for example, during switch acceptance tests) once the system assembly is inserted unless you have first shut down the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. Refer to the maintenance screens in Chapter 3 for the shutdown procedure.

Security Considerations

Toll fraud is the unauthorized use of a company’s telecommunications system by
an unauthorized third party. DEFINITY LAN Gateway offers the following
security features to help prevent toll fraud and protect against unauthorized users
gaining access to the system and learning the content of calls:
Password protection — The system requires administrators to provide a password before access is granted. Also, when the system is installed, default passwords are changed to help guard against unauthorized access.
Audit trail — DEFINITY LAN Gateway provides selective logging of an audit trail of operations carried across the interface. Users can view a set of Security Logs to learn such information as failed login attempts,
Issue 1 January 1996 1-5

Introduction
unauthorized client access attempts, time of Multi-Function Board resets, and commands executed from Administration/Maintenance screens.
This system does not support an encrypted/secured protocol; therefore, it is possible for a criminal hacker to ‘‘spoof’’ the system by reverse engineering the protocol and then ‘‘impersonating’’ a valid DEFINITY LAN Gateway client. This is more likely to occur if the hacker has physical access to the Ethernet LAN or to a system attached to the Ethernet LAN that supports the DEFINITY LAN Gateway. Customers are encouraged to help protect the system and reduce the possibility of toll fraud occurring by attaching the system assembly and its clients to an isolated, physically secure Ethernet (not connected to any other Ethernet).

NOTE:
ASAI must be enabled on the DEFINITY Customer Options form for the system to be fully operational.
Task 2: Gather Required Tools
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
To install a DEFINITY LAN Gateway system, you need the following tools:
Narrow width, flat-blade screwdriver 1/4-inch nut driver (recommended) Antistatic grounded wrist strap Punch-down tool
Task 3: Review Safety Considerations
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
!
WARNING:
Electronic equipment can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Do not touch any electronic component unless you are properly grounded.
!
DANGER:
Do not touch the switch backplane while installing the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. The backplane contains dangerous voltages and current.
To prevent damage to the equipment and yourself, adhere to the following:
Make sure you are familiar with the procedures necessary to prevent electrostatic damage to the equipment.
Properly ground a wrist strap. Place the grounded wrist strap on your bare wrist. (The wrist strap must
contact your bare skin directly — do not wear it over your clothes.) Do not remove the system assembly from the polyethylene bag until:
— Your wrist strap is on your wrist and properly grounded. — You have made room in the switch carrier and you are ready to
insert the system assembly in the carrier.
If you need to work on the system assembly — that is, disassemble it — place the assembly on a grounded antistatic work mat.

Study Figure 2-2 that follows to gain a general understanding of how the system assembly is to be connected. Some customer-furnished LAN equipment is included within the dotted lines in this figure. Helpful definitions for this equipment are as follows.
Balun (balanced/unbalanced) — An impedance matching transformer. Baluns are small, passive devices that convert the impedance of coaxial cable so that its signal can run on twisted-pair wiring. They are used often so that IBM 3270-type terminals, which traditionally require coaxial cable connection to their host computer, can run off twisted-pair. Baluns work for some types of protocols and not for others. There is often some performance degradation with baluns, and the signal cannot run as far on twisted wire as it can on coaxial cable.
10BaseT Hub — An Ethernet LAN that works on twisted pair wiring which looks and feels like telephone cabling. 10BaseT Ethernet LANs work on home runs in which the wire from each workstation snakes directly to the 10BaseT hub (like the wiring of a phone system). The advantages are twofold — first, if one machine crashes, it doesn’t bring down the whole network, and second, 10BaseT hubs often come with sophisicated management software.

Hardware Installation

This section describes the tasks needed to install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system hardware and peripheral hardware.
The DEFINITY LAN Gateway system installation tasks are the same for all switch types. These tasks include:
Task 5: Install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly Task 6: Connect the Alarm Board cables Task 7: Install the terminal (optional) Task 8: Connect the Maintenance Modem Task 9: Finalize and test the hardware
Before beginning these tasks, refer to the following worksheets: Appendix A, PBX Carrier Configuration Worksheets
A-1, Port Slot Assignments (Before Carrier Rearrangement) A-2, Port Slot Assignments (For Carrier Rearrangement) A-3, Port Slot Locations for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway System
Assembly
Appendix B, Supported Terminals and Modems/Option Settings

Task 5: Install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway System Assembly
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
This task is required for all installation scenarios.
!
WARNING:
To prevent damage to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly, make sure that you (or the factory, for new switches) have connected the system assembly adapter cables to the port connectors on the back of the switch (as described in Step 3) before you insert the system assembly in the switch carrier.
You can install the system assembly in the switch when the switch is powered on or off. When the assembly is inserted in the slots of the switch carrier, it will automatically power up, run diagnostics, and boot. To avoid a disk crash, never remove the assembly without first completing the shutdown procedure to shut down the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system (and allowing the disk to completely spin down).
Issue 1 January 1996 2-7
bbbbb
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Installation
For the same reason, do not cycle the power on the switch (for example, during switch acceptance tests) once the system assembly is inserted unless you have first shut down the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. Refer to the maintenance screens in Chapter 3 for the shutdown procedure.
Slot and Carrier Restrictions
If rearrangement of circuit packs in the PBX is required to accommodate the system assembly, rearrange the packs as indicated on Worksheet A-2, Port Slot Assignments, before proceeding.
There is a maximum of one system assembly per Single Carrier Cabinet (SCC) or MultiCarrier Cabinet (MCC). This assembly occupies five slots and should be placed to the far right in the carrier. For thermal reasons, the system assembly should not be placed in MultiCarrier Cabinet C carrier position (top carrier position).
See Appendix A, ‘‘PBX Carrier Configuration Worksheets,’’ for detailed information on the rearrangement of circuit packs and slot restrictions.
DEFINITY LAN Gateway System Slots
The system assembly requires five contiguous port slots in the switch carrier. In this description, the five slots are referred to as the first through the fifth slot, with the understanding that they can be any five contiguous port slots. It is recommended that it be installed as far to the right as possible.
The slots are numbered from left to right on the front panel of the switch cabinet, and from right to left on the rear panel as shown in Figure 2-3, Connecting the Adapter Cables, Rear-Panel View. The five port slots are occupied by the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly as follows:
The first and second slots are covered by the DEFINITY LAN Gateway disk and removable media and are not connected to the switch backplane or amphenol connectors.
The third slot is connected to the Alarm Board (ALB). The fourth slot is connected to the Multi-Function Board. The fifth slot remains vacant to provide added clearance and cooling for
certain components on the Multi-Function Board.

Installation Steps
Using Worksheet A-3, Port Slot Locations for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway System Assembly, follow the steps below to install the system assembly.
1. Remove any existing cables from the third and fourth slots of the five contiguous slots reserved for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. For example, if you are to install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system in slots 7 through 11 of carrier A in the switch, remove the I/O cables from slots 8 and 9. (These are the two slots that provide connectivity to the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system circuit packs.)
2. Referring back to Figure 2-3 and to Steps 2a and 2b that follow, connect the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system assembly adapter cables to the port connectors on the back of the switch.

Installation
NOTE:
You must connect these adapter cables directly to the port connectors on the switch. If you install another cable between the switch and the cables, the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system will not operate correctly (either now or in the future).
a. Attach the male D-type amphenol connector on the Alarm Board
(ALB) cable (the one with two amphenol connectors, one RJ45 LAN connector, and one 25-pin RS-232 connector) to the ALB (TN2170), the third slot of the five DEFINITY LAN Gateway system slots.
b. Attach the male D-type amphenol connector on the Multi-Function
Board (MFB) Y-cable (the one with one amphenol and two RS-232 connectors) to the MFB (TN2208), the fourth slot of the five DEFINITY LAN Gateway system slots.
NOTE:
If you are installing the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system in a DC-powered switch, perform the following steps to install the 116A isolating data interface. Otherwise, skip to Step 4.
3. Install the 116A isolating data interface. a. Attach the male end of a null modem (supplied with the DEFINITY
LAN Gateway system PEC) to the RS-232C connector on both PORT A and PORT B on the MFB Y-cable. Attach the male connector of the 116A to the other end of the null modem.
b. Attach the male end of another null modem to the RS-232
connector labeled RESERVED on the ALB Y-cable. Attach the male connector of the second 116A to the other end of the null modem.
4. Insert the system assembly (see Figure 2-4, DEFINITY LAN Gateway
System Assembly) into the switch cabinet as follows: Holding the system assembly by the outside edges of the faceplate, line
up the Alarm Board and the Multi-Function Board with the bottom guides of the third and fourth slots, respectively, of the five reserved port slots in the switch carrier.

Make the following connections:
A 10BaseT twisted pair cable with a male RJ-45 connector must be present at the wall field, no further than 25 feet from the back of the switch where DEFINITY LAN Gateway resides. The customer is responsible for this LAN connection.
A 104A connecting block will be mounted on the wall within reach of this connector. This is supplied by AT&T. Eight wires must be hard-connected across the two mounting blocks inside the 104A prior to mounting it to the wall, as shown in Figure 2-7, 104A Mounting Block. The ends of each wire are stripped of insulation. A punch-down tool is used to press the ends of these eight wires into the mounting blocks. Four protector caps snap over the top of the mounting blocks.
NOTE:
AT&T service technicians dispatched for DEFINITY LAN Gateway system installation and maintenance may not troubleshoot the customer LAN. The demarcation point for the DEFINITY LAN Gateway LAN is the point of connection into the connecting block where the cord plugs in. The customer is responsible for the following: the LAN cable, the connector at the end of the cable for connection into the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system, and LAN administration not performed by AT&T on the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system. After cutover, the customer is also responsible for maintaining the TCP/IP addresses and administration on the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system unless otherwise specified by contract.

Task 7: Install the Terminal (Optional)
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
This task is optional, but the temporary installation described below is recommended to facilitate initial administration of the DEFINITY LAN Gateway application.
You can install a terminal or a terminal emulator device, such as a PC or laptop, to perform administration and maintenance operations. The terminal may be permanently installed, or may be temporarily installed when direct administration or maintenance is desired. The connection for a directly attached terminal is always available for AT&T services personnel. This terminal is usually connected via a direct cable to Admin/Port B, but can be connected remotely if desired.
NOTE:
Once initial administration is completed, the directly connected terminal may be disconnected and further administration and maintenance may be accomplished over the LAN with a terminal emulator that supports Telnet access.
The terminal can be connected to Admin/Port B in one of four ways:
Via a direct connection Via modems Via Asynchronous Data Units (ADUs) Via 7400A data sets
The connectivity for all supported terminals is similar. Therefore, the subtasks for this task are the same for all supported terminals. See Appendix B for a list of supported terminals and modems.
If you are connecting a PC using G3-MA software (formerly SAT-PC) as an DEFINITY LAN Gateway administration/maintenance terminal, see
Communications System Generic 3 Management Applications Station Provisioning,
If you are connecting a generic PC with a terminal emulation package, you must ensure that the terminal emulation package is set to support a terminal type listed in Appendix B.

bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Installation
Keep in mind that the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system is data terminal equipment (DTE), and the switch is data communications equipment (DCE). Therefore, you may need to install a null modem to complete the DTE/DCE pair when connecting the PC.
MFB Port Usage
The MFB Y-cable has two RS-232C connectors labeled Main/Port A and Admin/Port B.
The administration and maintenance terminal should be connected to Admin/Port B. Some system diagnostic messages, created only when the system is initializing, are sent to Main/Port A. These additional messages are not useful during normal operation of the system.
Perform one of the four Subtasks (7A, 7B, 7C, or 7D, depending on the connection type) to connect a system-access terminal to Admin/Port B. Use Worksheet B-1, Terminals/Modems, to determine which tasks to complete.
The descriptions of Tasks 7B, 7C, and 7D assume that you are connecting a remote terminal to Admin/Port B. You can also use these tasks for a remote connection to Main/Port A by substituting A for B in the descriptions.
Task 7A: Install a Terminal via a Direct Connection
Refer to Figures 2-8, Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection, and 2-9, Installing a Terminal via Direct Connection (DC Switch Only), while performing this task.

NOTE:
You may use two 7400A data sets in this configuration. However, because the 7400B data set is easier to set up and use, it is the one described in this procedure on the terminal side. (The DEFINITY LAN Gateway system side of the configuration requires the 7400A.) If you are using two 7400A data sets, connect the second 7400A the same as the 7400B, but set the options as described in ‘‘Using the Front Panel’’ in

The results displayed in the packet loss field (z) will range from 0% to 100% The number of packets that are ‘‘lost’’ (need to be transmitted) will vary from LAN to LAN. For some LANs, 0% packet loss is normal, while for others, 10% or 20% loss is normal. The degree of packet transmission over a LAN depends upon the distance between machines, the number of users on the LAN, and the number of machines on the LAN.
Refer to the sections that follow for information about the various test results.
0 to 49% Loss
Consider this test successful if the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system reports a packet loss percentage in the range from 0 to 49%. Contact the customer LAN or system administrator, however, if the packet loss is from 10 to 49%. The customer administrator should be advised that the send and receive packets test (PING test) showed the loss. A loss in this range may cause the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system to experience slow response time. Possible causes for this type of loss include network congestion or a faulty device on the network.
Packets Out-of-Sequence
For a successful test (0 to 49%), also examine the icmp_seq= field. If one or two of the packets appear out of sequence, then the condition is acceptable. If, however, more than two packets are out of sequence (for example, 0, 2, 5, 3,
1...), then inform the customer administrator. Out-of-sequence packets may indicate network congestion or misrouting.
50 to 99% Loss
Consider this test a failure if the packet loss value is in the range of 50 to 99%. In this range, the DEFINITY LAN Gateway will be extremely slow, or will completely fail to communicate even though it has made a connection to the LAN. If you have a system that is reporting a 50% to 99% packet loss, cancel and refer to the troubleshooting procedure for a TCP/IP connection in Appendix D.
If this test has completely failed and the system reports a 100% packet loss, verify that you used the correct address. The test does not report if the test failure is due to sending the packets to an incorrect or nonexistent machine. A 100% packet loss indicates that the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system has not established communication over the LAN to the test machine address.
If you entered the right address, cancel and refer to the troubleshooting procedure for a TCP/IP connection in Appendix D.

Task 14: Register/Back Up the System
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
The final three steps the AT&T service technician performs to install the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system are as follows:
Task 14A: Register the System Task 14B: Deactivate/Activate Logins Task 14C: Perform a Backup of the Removable Medium
Task 14A: Register the System
AT&T Services personnel should call the TSC at 1-800-248-1111 to register the system. Expect the TSC to collect information such as the remote access port number, customer name, installation location, order number, and so forth.
Task 14B: Deactivate/Activate Logins
After the system has been registered, the service technician should log out of the system. At this point, the technician gives the telephone to the customer for activation of the customer login. Once the customer login is enabled, the customer is required to enter a password the first time he or she logs in. AT&T
Services will have no knowledge of this password.
NOTE:
The customer must be present for customer login activation. If the customer cannot be present, the service technician should leave a note for the customer to call 800-248-1111 to reach the TSC.
Customers should see the Change Passwords screen in Chapter 3 to change accessible passwords.
NOTE:
Task 14B renders the services login inactive. Subsequent need for the services login requires coordination with the TSC through the TSC dispatch process.
Task 14C: Perform a Backup of the Removable Medium
The customer should have received a blank tape as part of the DEFINITY LAN Gateway system order. (See Table C-2 in Appendix C.) Using this tape, the AT&T service technician assists the TSC in performing a backup of the system.
NOTE:
The craft login has been deactivated at this point.
1. Take the blank tape out of the box.
2. The tape must be writeable. To make the tape writeable, move the write protect marker forward (in the direction of the arrow on the tape label).
