 Connecting CS 1000E system components
553-3041-210 Standard 4.00 September 2007
This chapter contains the following procedures:
Connecting Call Server 0 to Call Server 1
The CS 1000E
 
redundant architecture allows for the separation of 
Call Server 0 and Call Server 1. The two processors are connected by either 
a direct 100BaseT crossover cable or a carefully engineered Layer 2/VLAN 
infrastructure. 
Campus Redundancy provides the ability to separate the CS 1000E Call 
Servers in a campus environment for “campus mirroring”. This feature 
enables two Call Servers, one active and one redundant, to be connected 
through an Ethernet network interface. Campus Redundancy can operate 
using any vendor’s Layer 2 switching products, in addition to the 
BayStack 470. The distance depends upon network parameter limitations 
specified in Communication Server 1000: System Redundancy 
(553-3001-307).
