After starting the IP Trunk service, place a test telephone call to the remote switch.
Whenever something happens on IP trunks that might affect service quality,
Windows NT displays an alert in a popup window. You can select the IP address
for the alert messages and notify a computer other than the IP Trunk display screen.
NT alerts allow you to monitor IP Trunk service on one or more switches.
The IP Trunk application logs Error Messages and will store the error messages and
warnings in the Windows NT Event Viewer.
Note:
Log settings for the NT Event Viewer should be set to Overwrite Events
as Needed for both the System and the Application logs.
If IP calls are not going through, try these basic procedures before contacting an
authorized Lucent Technologies Service Center for assistance.
• Check the IP Trunk service
• Check physical connections
• Check LAN functions
