Avaya S8700 Media Server
In a typical configuration, you connect to the network through a port on the back of the Avaya S8700
Media Server, using a standard CAT5 cable with RJ45 connectors on each end. Typically for an IP
Connect configuration, you connect through port 1 (Eth0). (See
Figure 75, CAT5 cable connected to a
port on the back of the Avaya S8700 Media Server,
on page 190). For a Multi-Connect configuration, you
connect through one of the available 4 ports on the network interface card (NIC), typically the one
corresponding to Eth4.
The other end of the cable connects to an Ethernet switch (router), hub, or token ring.
