Lab Exercise #2
Provision a G9 ISUP Trunk Group in C20

Description
In this lab, you will provision the logical tuple data in the C20 Call Agent tables that
is required to support the ISUP Trunk circuits you defined on the G9 node.
You will use the CS 2000 Management Tool (CMT) to identify the G9 Virtual Media
Gateway DS1 carriers association with the Gateway Controller that is associated
to the G9 (Virtual Media Gateway).
Once all the C20 Call Agent tables have been successfully datafilled, you will use
the Trunk Maintenance Manager (TMM) tool to busy (BSY) the trunk circuits and
return to service (RTS) the trunk circuits.

Objectives
After completing this lab, you will be able to:
• Identify the G9 Virtual Media Gateway association with a Gateway Controller
(GWC).
• Identify the G9 DS1 carrier association with a Gateway Controller (GWC).
• Provision logical Trunk Group tuple data in the C20 Call Agent.
• Use TMM to return to service the ISUP Trunk Group

Equipment
The following equipment is required to complete this lab:
• Access to the Application Launch Point to access CMT and TMM.
• Access to the C20 Call Session Controller to perform table editor commands to
input trunk Group assignment information.

Contact the instructor, with the Centra text chat utility,

if you have any questions or issues during this lab exercise.

Provision a G9 ISUP Trunk Group in C20

Description
In this lab, you will provision the logical tuple data in the C20 Call Agent tables that
is required to support the ISUP Trunk circuits you defined on the G9 node.
You will use the C20 Management Tool (CMT) to identify the G9 Virtual Media
Gateway E1 carriers association with the Gateway Controller that is associated to
the G9 (Virtual Media Gateway).
Once all the C20 Call Agent tables have been successfully datafilled, you will use
the Trunk Maintenance Manager (TMM) tool to busy (BSY) the trunk circuits and
return to service (RTS) the trunk circuits.

Objectives
After completing this lab, you will be able to:
• Identify the G9 Virtual Media Gateway association with a Gateway Controller
(GWC).
• Identify the G9 E1 carrier association with a Gateway Controller (GWC).
• Provision logical Trunk Group tuple data in the C20 Call Agent.
• Use TMM to return to service the ISUP Trunk Group

Equipment
The following equipment is required to complete this lab:
• Access to the Application Launch Point to access CMT and TMM.
• Access to the C20 Call Session Controller to perform table editor commands to
input trunk Group assignment information.

Contact the instructor, with the Centra text chat utility,

if you have any questions or issues during this lab exercise.

Use the proper table editor commands to add the following tuple into Table
C7TRKMEM. Use the CLLI based on your assigned Group assignment.
Notice: In the table below, a range of 24 number values for ‘MEMKEY’ and ‘CIC’
has been provided. Use one ‘MEMKEY’ value beginning at 1, and one ‘CIC’ value
beginning at the first number shown in the range of 24 number values. This
enables creation of a CIC value for each of the 24 Trunk Members.
Note: The command below assigns one CIC value to one Trunk Member You can
choose to repeat the command for all 24 Trunk Members or just add a couple of
members. Just add a tuple for each of the Trunk Members added in Table
