PN 06:16 Rev A 2006-10-20

Created by ESF/KEP/MA Francois Vaillant

- No new version of the CTI-Link server, when supported by a PC. The CTI-

Link server is in version 1.0.009 and the CTI-Link client in version 1.0.011.

The old CD-ROM media kit CTI-Link is no more for sales. The software is

available on the Ericsson web sites.

5.6 HW and SW compatibilities

This section describes the required hardware and software for introducing a new

V8.1 service on an installed system. Refer the various compatibility tables

updated in version 8.1 in the MDE Administration CD-ROM8.1.

5.6.1 Hardware issue with new version 8.1

The version 8.1 includes all xMV optional services, the same available with

software XMV5.2.1/ XIP5.2.1. The version 8.1 can be implemented on any

installed system already in versions 7.0/7.1/8.0A/8.0C without hardware change.

Nevertheless service dimensioning can require new boards: either line boards or

CMV/SMV/EMV board. Afterwards verify the required protection software

licenses.

The installed system is in version <8.1 and a new V8.1 service shall be

implemented:

 Read first the description of the new service that includes the pre-requisites:

hardware, software and, if required, software licenses.

 Then refer to the compatibility tables to check hardware and software compatibility

with version V8. and xMV5.2.1. This is what is described hereafter.

5.6.2 Upgrading the CPU hardware and software with V8.1

Follow the described steps with the compatibility tables:

 Select the table “Hardware compatibilities according to software versions” for the

installed system: MDE-M, MDE-XL or MD34/MD35/MD36. Enter the last line

version R8.1 and read the compatibility with the CPU installed board. When not

compatible (ex: CPJ3 R-state<G) the CPU board shall be changed. Then verify

that version 8.1 is compatible with all installed boards (version 8.1 knows the

boards by their signature).

 The CPU board shall be changed. Then verify that CPJ6/MPM2 is compatible with

the installed backplane and power supply. Refer to table “Hardware

compatibilities according to CPU configuration”. For MDE-XL, MPM2 is not

compatible with backplanes SFP/MFP/MFE. For MDE-M CPJ6 is delivered with

the cabinet (no problem of backplane) but verify the power supply (CPJ6 is not

compatible with CCS1/CCS2).

Then verify the CPU compatibility with the other installed boards.

 The CPU is changed. CPJ6/MPM2 could be not compatible with some installed

boards. Example: CPJ6 is not compatible with CAP (CAP2 shall be used); but

CPJ6 is compatible with CZI.

 Whatever the CPU board is, verify the firmware on the installed boards to offer the

required new service. Example: the CLIP service requires a firmware upgrading
