Subject

WAR NING

Before a Large System can be installed, a network assessment must be performed and the network must be VoIP-ready.

If the minimum VoIP network requirements are not met, the system will not operate properly.

For information on the minimum VoIP network requirements and converging a data network with VoIP, refer to Converging the Data Network with VoIP (NN43001-260).

This document provides installation and acceptance testing procedures for Meridian 1 Large Systems and Communication Server 1000M Large Systems.
