The DSC Platform dual server configuration has been designed for two servers that are physically connected to each other to ensure hardware redundancy. Inter-server communication is through the ha0 interface. Physical interfaces under ha0 virtual interface are bonded for redundancy if sufficient physical interfaces are available on the customer selected server.

Ethernet Interfaces

DSC Platform provides the following Ethernet interfaces:

Ethernet InterfaceDescription
Only one internal subnet (ha0) is supported in the guest VM operating system (OS).
  • ha0 – internal interface
The Management IP network is configured on mgt0 and mgt1 interfaces.
  • mgt0 – management interface 0
  • mgt1 – management interface 1
The Routing IP network is configured on pkt0, pkt1, pkt2, and pkt3 interfaces.
  • pkt0 – external data interface 0
  • pkt1 – external data interface 1
  • pkt2 – external data interface 2
  • pkt3 – external data interface 3
The Integrated Monitoring Feed (IMF) IP network is configured on imf0 and imf1 interfaces.
  • imf0 – imf interface 0
  • imf1 – imf interface 1


Note

For information about the IMF, see the appropriate chapter in the SS7 Application Guide 2.


Both IPV4 and IPV6 are supported on the DSC Platform.
