Avaya MPS Architectural Overview

System Architecture

The MPS family is designed with a flexible hardware and software architecture that is

highly scalable. System models range from small (48 ports) to large networked

configurations of tens of thousands of ports. The same basic hardware and software

components are used for all configurations. Individual systems usually vary only in

application/transaction processor performance, capacity for additional ports (TMS’),

and optional feature software/hardware (for example, Call Progress Detection, Speech

Recognition, or Caller Message Recording).

Architecture of the MPS is based on a Sun Microsystems SPARC system processor

running the Solaris operating system or an Intel processor running Windows 2000.

The system processor is connected to one or more Telephony Media Servers (TMS).

The TMS is a flexible platform that provides switching, bridging, programmable

resources, memory, and network interfaces to execute a comprehensive set of

telephony and media functions.

Each MPS system consists of a Solaris or Windows host node running OS and MPS

software, and one or more TMS’ responsible for the bulk of the actual telephony

processing. One TMS is required for each MPS defined on the node. A multiple node

configuration is referred to as the MPS Network. The following diagrams illustrate the

two basic products available in the MPS system: a single rack-mounted version,

known as the MPS100, which is available on the Windows platform only, and a

cabinet enclosed networked configuration which relies on the MPS1000 and is

available on both the Windows and Solaris platforms. Typically, the MPS100 contains

only 2 spans (though it may contain up to 8) and only 1 Digital Communications

Controller (DCC) card, and does not support bridging outside the TMS. Conversely,

the MPS1000 is the high-capacity model, with 4 TMS’ per chassis and up to 4 chassis

per cabinet. It can support up to ten thousand ports with the ability to bridge between

any two regardless of the chassis the ports are in with respect to each other. This

manual deals almost exclusively with the MPS1000.

The flexibility inherent in the product line allows the MPS networks to incorporate

numerous different designs. For additional information and configurations, see the

Avaya Media Processing Server Series 1000 Transition Guide. For information on

using the MPS, see the Avaya System Operator’s Guide.

Though the Avaya Media Processing Server Series 1000 Transition Guide is typically

used by those migrating from a previous version of our transaction processing

systems, it also contains information of interest to those new to the product line. Such

information should be used in that context only.
