Remove an EPN Cabinet from an
Existing System
All Systems
Before starting the EPN removal process, perform the following:
1. Remove administration for all of the affected trunks, attendant consoles,
voice terminals, and data modules associated with the port circuit packs in
the EPN cabinet being removed. These port-related translations must be
removed before removing any hardware. Refer to Administrator’s Guide for
Avaya Communication Manager for more information.
Remove Fiber Link Administration (Simplex
Systems)
The fiber links routing administration to and from the EPN cabinet being removed
must be removed before removing any hardware from the cabinet.
!
CAUTION:
Failure to remove fiber link administration before removing hardware causes
unnecessary alarm reports to INADS and causes errors that are very difficult
to clear.
The fiber links are administered to match hardware and the Fiber Optic Cable
Running List. Fiber link administration creates translation data by identifying the
endpoint pairs for each link. To properly remove the fiber links administration:
1. Type change circuit-packs and press
Enter
. Scroll through the screens
until the carrier containing the circuit packs is displayed. Remove the
TN570 and the TN574 or TN1654 circuit packs from the slot locations on
the screen. Press
Enter
when finished.
2. Type list fiber and press
Enter
. All administered fiber connections are
displayed. Make note of which fiber links are to be removed.
3. Type change fiber link and press
Enter
. The Fiber Link Administration
screen appears. Each of the fiber links is identified by a fiber number.
