• IP Context Overview
Introduction
This chapter outlines the Trinity
Internet protocol (IP) context
and its related components. You will get the fun-
damental understanding on how to set up your CL2300 to make use of IP related services.
The following sections describe the configuration steps necessary to put together certain IP services and the ref-
erences to the related chapters that explain the issue in more detail.
The IP context in Trinity is a high level, conceptual entity that is responsible for all IP-related protocols and
services for data and voice. The IP context performs much of the same functions as a standalone IP router, and
since every context is defined by a name, the IP context is named
ROUTER
by default.
below, the IP context with all its related elements is contained within the area on the left, which
has a gray fill (find a short description of those elements below). The right side displays the related CS context,
which communicates with the IP context via gateways. Since the CS context and its related components are not
the subject of this chapter, they are illustrated in
with gray lines instead of black ones.
