3. Reference Configuration

The reference configuration described throughout these Application Notes is shown in Figure 1.

To support wireless communication, several Avaya 8120 Access Points were deployed in the

sample configuration and registered to an Avaya Wireless LAN Controller 8180.

As shown in Figure 1, Avaya A175 Desktop Video Devices and other SIP endpoints utilize the

Session Manager User Registration feature and are supported by Communication Manager. For

the sample configuration, SIP users are not IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) users and

Communication Manager is configured as an Evolution Server in the Avaya Aura architecture.

When Communication Manager is configured as an Evolution Server, it applies both origination-

side and termination-side features in a single step. For more information regarding configuring

Communication Manager as an Evolution Server, see References [4] through [7] in Section 12.

Communication Manager is connected to Session Manager via a non-IMS SIP signaling group

and associated SIP trunk group.

Communication Manager also supports non-SIP endpoints such as Avaya 9600 Series IP

Deskphones and Avaya one-X® Communicator clients configured as H.323 endpoints.

Session Manager is managed by System Manager. For the sample configuration, Session

Manager and System Manager are running on separate Avaya S8800 Servers. Communication

Manager Evolution Server runs on an Avaya S8800 server with an Avaya G6450 Media

Gateway.

Note: IP addresses have been partially hidden in Figure 1 for security.
