Enabling IP Endpoint Registration on Processor Ethernet Avaya Aura S8500 Rel 6.3

[Albie123]

Hi,

Could someone please help me, I have an Avaya Aura S8500 Rel 6.3 and when my BP installed it he never enabled IP Endpoint registration on my processor ethernet. All IP Phones are registered to CLAN boards and all CLAN boards are in network region 2 which does provide load balancing. I would like to enable IP Endpoint registration by changing the IP-Interface Procr and entering Y under IP-Endpoint registration. The problem is I have to disable the processor interface to make the change, and I don't know what will happen when I do. Will I loose my SAT connection? Do I need to connect my SAT connection via a CLAN board before I disable the interface? I don't want to get booted from the SAT connection. Once I make the change do I have to reboot the IP phones to have them re-register? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if you run a stat socket command you should see how many registrations there are to the PROCR. I've done this in the past and you don't get booted out of the administration session. I'd do it after hours, but it is a 2-3 second change that shouldn't cause anything.

And wherever your phones boot up to.. 'dhcp and/or 46xx.settings' you will need to ensure the PROCR address is in the mcippadd string.

Thank you, I feel a lot better abut the change now. I have it scheduled for Sunday and yes I will change the scope and I also plan on changing the priority and make the processor a higher priority than the Clan boards. Thank you again.

Where did you see you needed to disable the processor interface to enable procr?
I'd be more worried about your network map/network regions and making sure the phones stay where they're supposed to be. As long as procr is in NR 2 and the CLANs allow h323 registration, you'll always load balance across 'em

Change IP-Interface Proc

The processor interface is not set up to register IP endpoints and to change that you need to disable ip-interface proc and enter a Y in the field for IP endpoint registration and yes all will be in network region 2, but the proc interface will have a higher priority over the Clan boards.

As long as the CLANs are up and allow h323 phones in NR 2, it'll always load balance across all available gatekeepers in the network region.

But yeah, you'll put your IP trunks down and your gateways while you do it if you have to busy ip-interface procr first.
