Chapter 2: Overview of the Wave IP 2500 Chassis and Components
Wave Server Hardware Reference Guide
Minimum configuration
The ISC1 is the minimum requirement for a Wave IP 2500 Server system. Expansion modules
and cards are available to expand the Wave IP 2500 Server base unit to support a wide variety
of trunk and station configurations.
Redundancy
The Wave IP 2500 Server chassis has been designed to support redundant hard drives. All Wave
IP 2500 Servers ship with redundant hard drives as part of the standard configuration.
In case of a primary (master) hard drive failure, you can use the redundant (slave) hard drive to
run the Wave IP 2500 Server chassis. See “Hard drive” on page 6-3 for more about the hard
drive options on the Wave IP 2500 Server.
Fault monitoring
A proprietary Fault Monitor Module is an integral part of the embedded firmware running on
the ISC1, and receives system error-trace messages and stores them in memory. As soon as the
Wave Server is powered on, the Fault Monitor Module starts monitoring the status of the
Microsoft Windows Server operating system, the power supply status, the ISC1temperature,
and the Power-on/Shutdown button. You can configure the Fault Monitor Module to dial a pager
number that notifies the system administrator of system errors.
For more information about the Fault Monitor Module, refer to Appendix A, “Fault Monitor
Module and Trace Log.”
To configure the Fault Monitor Module, see the Wave Global Administrator Guide .
Adding capacity
As customer needs expand, the Wave IP 2500 Server chassis can be expanded to handle
additional users and increased traffic. The chassis has been designed to accept specialized
communication cards and modules to provide additional telephone station support, such as
analog trunks and T1 lines. Procedures for adding additional cards and modules are described
in Chapter 4, “Installing Wave Expansion Cards and Modules.”
