All SuccessionCSE 1000 speech path management is done with Physical TNs instead ofVirtual TNs.The choice of the port is not restricted to the ITG where the TPS handling aparticular i2000 series Internet Telephone is running. The port can beallocated to any ITG card dedicated to i2000 series Internet Telephones. Thei2000 series Internet Telephones (Virtual TNs) are defined on Virtualsuperloops.A virtual superloop is a hybrid of real and phantom superloops. As withphantom superloops, hardware (for example, a line card) is not used to defineand enable units on a virtual superloop. As with real superloops, virtualsuperloops use the time slot map to handle i2000 series Internet Telephone(Virtual TNs) to i2000 series Internet Telephone calls.Terminal Proxy Server descriptionThe Terminal Proxy Server (TPS) maintains a count of the number of setsregistered to the card. Each node has one active master. The active masterbroadcasts to all ITG cards requesting a response if it has room for anotherset. The maximum number of sets per card is 96.Note: The Succession CSE 1000 supports 640 registered telephone setson each Call Server. More than one Call Server can exist on a network.
