3.6
New Features
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows provides the following new feature on HDSI products. This feature is new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for
Windows.
Station Interface Alarms
This feature provides notification of problems with the communication link between a board and its associated Station Interface Box (SIB). The MSI API sends a station interface alarm to the application when a station interface goes offline, so that the application can stop sending calls to the station interfaces that are no longer in service. The MSI API can also notify the application when the problem is corrected; that is, when the station interface goes on-line. Example: If power to the SIB is lost or if any communication links between the board and the SIB are accidentally disconnected (e.g., cable is disconnected), the MSI API can notify the application by sending it an alarm event. See the MSI API Library Reference and the MSI API
Programming Guide for details.
Asynchronous Routing with ms_listenEx( ) and ms_unlistenEx( )
In addition to the functionality provided by ms_listen( ) and ms_unlisten( ), the new
ms_listenEx( ) and ms_unlistenEx( ) routing functions provide asynchronous routing through the mode parameter. The MSEV_LISTEN and MSEV_UNLISTEN events are also added to indicate the successful completion of the asynchronous routing operations, and the MSEV_LISTEN_FAIL and MSEV_UNLISTEN_FAIL events to indicate failure of the asynchronous routing operations. See the MSI API
Library Reference for details

This chapter provides information about the installation and configuration of Intel ®
Dialogic ® System Release 6.1 CompactPCI* for Windows. This information is provided in the following sections:.
•
•
Installation
Installation of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows is a complete installation (not an overlay to a previous release). Changes to the installation include the following:
An existing version of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows can be updated
If an existing release of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows is already installed on your system and you start to install a newer version, the previous version will be detected and all installed features will be automatically updated with content contained in the newer version. You will not have to uninstall any previous version of
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows software. However, if a system release prior to
System Release 6.1 cPCI Feature Release 1 for Windows is detected (such as
System Release 6.0), the install will tell you to uninstall the old release before installing any version of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows.
A previous version of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows is not required before you can install an update
You can install any newer release of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows without having to install a previous release. In other words, all previously delivered content up to and including the most recent release will be automatically installed.
PDKManager Registry Key
When you upgrade to a newer release of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows, the
PDKManager registry key will be preserved. Therefore, you do not need to manually run PDKManagerRegSetup. If you manually run PDKManagerRegSetup, it will fail since the registry key is already present.
A new Core Runtime option replaces all the individual board support options on the installation menu
The Core Runtime option installs the device drivers, firmware, parameters, and other files needed to execute an application that uses Intel telecom boards.
ISDN Protocol selection
On the installation menu, ISDN protocols can be selected individually or all ISDN protocols can be selected.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 21
Global Call Protocols are now installed with the system release software
In previous releases, the Global Call Protocols had to be installed separately from the system release software. Now the Global Call Protocol Release is integrated with the system release installation. No additional steps are required to install Global Call.
Backup of configuration data from some previous releases is supported.
If you have a previous Intel Dialogic System Release installed on your computer
(System Release 5.1, 6.0, or a previous release of 6.1), you can optionally preserve existing configuration data.
To do this, you must first install a preparation program, which is available in a
Technical Note at this website: http://resource.intel.com/telecom/support/tnotes/tnbyos/2000/tn113.htm
The backup feature (cfgbackup.exe) preserves the following files:
• some .cfg files and DCM Registry data - The *.cfg files are DCM-related files
(saved in dialogic/savedConfig/*.cfg) and they are different from the DM3 configuration files (*.config files)
• DM3 configuration files (*.config files)
• PDK .CDP files
No other configuration objects are preserved. Refer to the Software Installation Guide for more information.
Consumable Installation (Redistributable Edition)
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows offers a Redistributable Edition that can be incorporated or “consumed” into another install. This edition contains all the software that can be redistributed as part of an application developed using the system release. The Redistributable edition provides all the software and documentation necessary to deploy and run applications and also includes demos. The
Redistributable Edition does not include any development tools. Development tools are provided in the Developer Edition.
Remote installation
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows can be installed remotely via a terminal services remote session.
Developer Edition
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows offers a Developer Edition. This edition is intended only for use during application development. The Developer Edition provides all the software and documentation necessary to develop applications that will run on the release.
Not for Sale Edition
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows offers a Not For Sale (NFS) Edition.This edition contains all the software required to develop and execute an application. The
NFS edition is meant for evaluation purposes only. Thus, if you install this edition, the
Intel Dialogic System Service will stop after 10 hours. The Intel Dialogic System
Service can be restarted using the configuration manager (DCM), but it will stop again in 10 hours. The Intel Dialogic System Service does not stop after 10 hours in the
Redistributable and Developer editions. To get this functionality, you must uninstall the
NFS edition and install either the Redistributable or Developer edition of the software.

Detection of unsupported boards
If an unsupported board (i.e., a board that is not supported in System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows) is detected by this release, you will be notified that the board is unsupported by the release via a log file (rtf*.txt) in the log directory and the Windows
Event log. System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows will not prevent you from installing an unsupported board.
For information about installing and uninstalling System Release 6.1 cPCI for
Windows, refer to the Software Installation Guide. Online help is also available during installation.
Configuration
Configuration is performed after the system release software is installed, using the configuration manager (DCM). Products are distributed with preconfigured default settings.
The following new configuration capabilities are provided in System Release 6.1 cPCI for
Windows. These capabilities are new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for
Windows:
Automatic FCD File Generation
The FCD files are not required in the system release software. When you download a
PCD file and its corresponding CONFIG file to a board, the FCD file is automatically generated and also downloaded to the board. The FCD file is also copied into the data directory. Refer to the DM3 Configuration Guide for additional information.
Trunk Configurator
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows includes a Trunk Configuration property sheet in the Configuration Manager (DCM) that allows you to configure individual trunks on
DMV600BTEC, DMV1200BTEC, DMN160TEC, and DMT160TEC products. Refer to the DM3 Configuration Guide for more information.
The Configuration Manager (DCM) supports migration of configuration data from previous releases of System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows and some older releases
In addition to supporting migration of configuration data from previous releases of
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows, DCM supports migration from the following older releases:
• System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for Windows
• System Release 6.0 cPCI Service Pack 1 for Windows
• System Release 6.0 cPCI for Windows
• System Release 6.0 cPCI for Windows Service Update
Note: Not every .config file that is backed up will be migrated into the System
Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows releases to avoid losing problem fixes and newly added features such as mixed ISDN/CAS and dynamic protocol selection.
PDK Configurator
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows includes a new PDK Configuration property sheet in the Configuration Manager (DCM) that allows you to assign country
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 23
dependent parameter (CDP) file variants to trunks on boards that are PDK capable, providing the trunks have been configured for either the CAS or R2MF protocol. This property sheet includes the following parameters:
• PDKTrunk 0 = allows you to assign the same CDP file variants to all trunks on a board. This parameter only applies if all of the trunks on a board are configured for the CAS or R2MF protocols.
• PDKTrunk 1 to PDKTrunk 16 = allows you to assign CDP file variants on a trunkby-trunk basis. This parameter does not require that all trunks on a board be configured for the CAS or R2MF protocol, but it only applies to those trunks that are.
When multiple CDP file variants are assigned to a trunk, an application can dynamically change variants on that trunk.

New Tools
There are no new tools or new features of existing tools in System Release 6.1 cPCI for
Windows since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for Windows.
New API Libraries
This section describes the new administration software API libraries available for System
Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows. Board Management Library (BML)
The Board Management Library (BML) contains functions that provide runtime fault monitoring and management of configurable boards. The API provides the ability to monitor the host computer for a failure and take boards out of service to prevent the network from offering calls to a failed system. For example, if the host application or operating system fails, the API will take the network interface out of service. Refer to the Board Management API Library Reference for more information.
Note: This API was introduced in System Release 6.1 cPCI Feature Release 1 for
Windows.
Support for the Board Management API is as follows:
• The Board Management API is supported on digital DM3 boards (the board must have a network interface for the API to be supported).
• The Board Management API is supported on these boards using the following protocols:
• T1 North American ISDN (4ESS, 5ESS, DMS100, DMS250, NI2, NTT, QSIG)
• E1 ISDN (NET5, QSIG)
• E1/T1 CAS (PDK protocols)
• E1 DPNSS and DASS2
• The Board Management API is not supported on the Intel NetStructure® IPT series boards.
Diagnostics Software
This section describes the new diagnostic capabilities and tools available for System
Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows. For more information about the diagnostics software, refer to the Diagnostics Guide.
Runtime Trace Facility (RTF) Tool
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows introduces a new version of the Runtime Trace
Facility tool. The RTF tool provides a mechanism for tracing the execution path of
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 27
runtime libraries that are supported by System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows.
Support for the RTF tool is as follows:
• Rtftool command is used to stop/start the RTF tool’s tracing capabilities
• provides centralized logging for key OA&M components (OAMSYSLOG)and IP libraries
• run the RTF tool in preservation mode. Preservation mode allows you to save specified RTF trace information into a separate, preserved log file while the RTF engine continues to output active trace information into the default log file. The
RTF engine will not overwrite, delete or append to the preserved log file after it has been saved.
• trace the Audio Conferencing API (DCB) library.
Runtime Trace Facility (RTF) Output
The presentation of the trace data has been made consistent. The trace format is identical for a given type of tracing, regardless of the library generating the trace.
Ability to trace inbound and outbound R2MF tones and CAS bit transitions/states
Inbound and outbound R2MF tones and CAS bit transitions/states can be traced using existing Global Call APIs and a Global Call event (GCEV_TRACEDATA). This allows developers to determine the root cause of protocol issues in a system that uses
Intel NetStructure ® DMT160TEC digital telephony interface boards. This capability provides a single interface through which every component on a DMT160TEC board can send trace data to the host in a generic format.
Note: Supported on DMT160TEC only.
Ability to trace multiple ISDN trunks and enable/disable tracing via APIs
The capture of ISDN D-channel trace information can now be dynamically started and stopped via Global Call APIs, and logs can be collected on two or more trunks at the same time. Previously, the only available tool for collecting ISDN trace information
(isdntrace) could not be run on more than one trunk. This trace information allows developers to determine the root cause of protocol issues in a system that uses Intel
NetStructure ® DMT160TEC or DMN160TEC digital telephony interface boards (no other boards support this feature).
Hardware diagnostic improvements
The DM3post tool can now run POST on an entire chassis. The autodump feature of the dlgsnapshot tool is now disabled by default. However, you still have the option of enabling the autodump feature if you want to use it. In the default state, no board or
DSP will be automatically reset as a result of a DSP failure. Previously, the entire board would be brought down if a single DSP failed.
PDK protocol tracing on DM3 now supports Intel NetStructure ® DMT160TEC boards
The DM3 PDK Protocol Trace (PDK Trace) tool allows those who use a DM3 PDK protocol to log specific information related to the operation of the protocol. This tool can now be used with DMT160TEC boards.
Note: PDK Tracing will work on any of the following products with a PDK protocol loaded: Intel NetStructure ® DM/V, DM/V-A, DM/V-B, DM/F, and DMT160TEC boards. PDK tracing is not supported for Intel NetStructure ® DM/IP boards and Intel NetStructure ® on DM3 architecture analog boards.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 28
Intel ® Telecom Subsystem Summary Tool (its_sysinfo)
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows introduces a new version of the Intel Telecom
Subsystem Summary Tool (its_sysinfo). The its_sysinfo tool collects data from the system on which you execute it and provides you with information about the system environment: the operating system, computer architecture, Intel Dialogic System
Release software, and operational logs. The new version of its_sysinfo supports a command line interface, provides more data-collecting features, and improves some existing data collecting features.

Note: Refer to the Global Call API Library Reference and Global Call API Programming Guide for more information.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 31
New Features
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows supports the following new Global Call features.
These features are new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for Windows.
Note: The Global Call Protocols Package is now integrated with the System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows software installation. Previously, this was a separate, installable package.
New Global Call Features for E1/T1 Technology
The Global Call API library provides the following new features that apply to E1/T1 CAS technology:
Dynamic protocol selection
When using DMT160TEC and DMN160TEC boards, dynamic protocol selection allows changes on a trunk-by-trunk basis within selected front-end configurations (T1 or E1). For example, if a trunk is configured for E1 at download, a user can change that trunk to a different variant of the same E1 call control signaling protocol during runtime, for example, Argentina R2 to Brazil R2. Changes from one E1 call control signaling protocol to another E1 call control signaling protocol, for example, R2MF to
ISDN or vice-versa are not supported. Changes to/from Clear Channel are also excluded. Refer to the Global Call E1/T1 CAS/R2 Technology Guide. This feature is supported on DMT160TEC and DMN160TEC boards only.
Note: The number of channels per trunk must remain the same as originally configured. This means you cannot dynamically change a span from T1 to E1 or vice-versa. This functionality is only provided at download.
Dynamic line coding and frame selection
Allows dynamic configuration (post download) of the following trunk parameters:
• Line Type (E1 or T1)
• Frame Selection (D4 or ESF when using T1; E1 standard or E1 standard and
CRC-4 when using E1)
This feature is supported on Intel NetStructure ® DMT160TEC and DMN160TEC boards only. For further information, see the Global Call E1/T1 CAS/R2 Technology
Guide.
Support for new PDK protocols
The following new protocols are supported:
• Korea T1/R2
• Lebanon R2
• Poland R2
• Samsung Lineside E1
• Australia R2
• South Africa R2
• Bulgaria R2
• Croatia R2
• Kuwait R2
• Lithuania R2
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 32
• Uzbekistan R2
For further information about these protocols, see the Global Call CDP Configuration
Guide.
Querying ABCD bits
The Direct Signaling protocol now provides the ability to retrieve the current state of the ABCD signaling bit values by using the gc_Extension( ) function. For further information, see the Global Call CDP Configuration Guide.
Support for ANI category digit retrieval on DM3 boards
The gc_GetCallInfo( ) function, which retrieves information associated with a call, can now be used to retrieve the category digit for DM3 boards. (Formerly, the
gc_GetCallInfo( ) CATEGORY_DIGIT parameter was supported for Springware boards only.) For information about using the gc_GetCallInfo( ) function, see the
Global Call API Library Reference.
The category digit is used to determine the origin or type of the calling party (for example, ordinary subscriber, pay phone) so that the application may choose to take a specific action based on the call’s origin. The category digit is used mainly with E1
R2MF protocols, and the categories are determined by the protocol.
New Global Call Features for IP Technology
The Global Call API Library provides many new features that apply to the IP technology, either in general or specifically to either the SIP or the H.323 protocol. The following list includes features that are new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for
Windows.
The following new feature applies to the IP technology in general (that is, both H.323 and
SIP protocols):
Support for Early Media when using Global Call
Media streaming is automatically established as early as possible in the call connection process to allow transfer of signaling tones or system announcements.
Note: When using DM/IP boards, the early media capability must be explicitly enabled by means of a new parameter (PrmEarlyMedia) in the DM3 configuration file. See the DM3 Configuration Guide for details.
Access to coder information in FastStart call offers
When a “FastStart” call offer that contains one or more coder proposals is received, the application can optionally access that coder information before accepting the offer.
Previously, the coder information was only used internally by the library to begin the coder negotiation process.
RTF logging facilities
The logging capabilities available for the IP call control library and the SIP and H.323 protocol stacks now use the same RTF facilities as other system logging operations.
Host network disconnection alarm
GCAMS alarm to notify Global Call applications if the host LAN connection is lost (due to cable disconnection or network failure, for example) and when the connection is restored.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 33
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows also supports the following new features that are specific to the H.323 protocol only:
Optional H.245 channel in H.323 fastStart connection mode
By indicating that the H.245 channel is not essential, an application can accelerate the call establishment process by allowing completion without waiting for the H.245 channel to be established.
H.323 Annex M Tunneled Signaling Messages
Applications can encapsulate DSS/QSIG/ISUP messages (optionally containing nonstandard data elements) in common H.225 call signaling messages. The length of the message content is not limited to 255 bytes.
Support for extended-length Global Call parameters is provided by several new
gc_util_…_ex( ) APIs that have been added to the Global Call library. These new
APIs are documented in both the Global Call API Library Reference and the Global
Call IP Technology Guide.
Expanded Nonstandard Data capabilities
When sending or receiving a Nonstandard Data element (in Setup, H.245 UII, Q.931
Facility, or RAS messages, for example) the data is no longer limited to 255 bytes.
Support for extended-length Global Call parameters is provided by several new
gc_util_…_ex( ) APIs that have been added to the Global Call library. These new
APIs are documented in both the Global Call API Library Reference and the Global
Call IP Technology Guide.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows also supports the following new features that are specific to the SIP protocol only:
Call Transfer
Supplementary service for unattended and attended call transfers compliant with
IETF RFC 3515.
Message header access
Applications can set/get any standard or proprietary header field in any supported SIP message type (as permitted by IETF standards) using a generic mechanism. Using this mechanism, the size of header field content is not limited to 255 bytes.
Support for extended-length Global Call parameters is provided by several new
gc_util_…_ex( ) APIs that have been added to the Global Call library. These new
APIs are documented in both the Global Call API Library Reference and the Global
Call IP Technology Guide.
MIME messages
Applications can send and retrieve SIP messages that include single-part or multi-part
MIME bodies. MIME bodies are commonly used to encapsulate SIP Telephony
(SIP-T) information.
SIP outbound proxy
Applications can configure the Global Call library to use a proxy for all outbound messages sent from each virtual board.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 34
Support for TCP and UDP transport protocols
The Global Call IP call control library can be configured to accept incoming messages that use the TCP transport protocol rather than UDP. When TCP support is enabled, the library can be configured for which transport protocol to use as the default for SIP requests, and this default transport protocol can be overridden by the application on a message-by-message basis. The library can also be configured for how to handle transport failures for SIP requests that are sent using UDP.
Support for INFO method
Applications can send or receive INFO requests and responses to allow transport of application-level, session-related control information after the setup of a SIP session has begun.
Support for OPTIONS method
Applications can send or receive OPTIONS requests and responses to allow a SIP
User Agent to query the capabilities of another UA or proxy either within or outside of a SIP dialog.
Support for SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY methods
Applications can send or receive SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY requests and responses to support event notification between nodes outside of a SIP dialog. Unsubscribed
NOTIFY messages (commonly used for MWI) are supported as well as subscribed
NOTIFY messages.
Expanded registration capabilities
The Global Call library now allows applications to query the SIP registrar for current bindings as well as adding, changing, and deleting the bindings. The maximum number of registrations can be configured when starting each virtual board to allow users to be registered with multiple registrars or registered using multiple transport addresses.
Support for digest authentication
The Global Call library supports the SIP digest authentication mechanism, which allows a remote endpoint to challenge and authenticate the identity of a User Agent which has sent it a request. A new gc_SetAuthenticationInfo( ) API, which is documented in the Global Call IP Technology Guide, has been added to support this functionality.
Support for 3xx responses, including redirect server capabilities
Applications are notified of incoming 3xx (redirection) responses, and are capable of sending 3xx responses to support redirect server functionality.
Expanded support for provisional (18x) responses
Applications can specify which provisional response to send when accepting an incoming call request. Applications that receive a provisional response from the remote endpoint can distinguish among the different possible codes and can also retrieve the Status-Code and Reason-Phrase.
New Global Call Features for ISDN Technology
The Global Call API library provides the following new features that apply to ISDN technology:
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 35
6.5
Support for QSIG NCAS
The ability to make (outbound) and receive (inbound) Non-Call Associated Signaling
(NCAS) calls is supported for the QSIG protocol (E1 or T1) on the Intel NetStructure ®
DMV1200BTEC, DM/V960A-4T1-cPCI and DM/V1200A-4E1-cPCI boards.
Note: The feature is only supported on media loads that use the QSIG T1 or E1 protocol; for example, ml2_qs2_qsige1.
See the Global Call ISDN Technology Guide for more information.
2B channel transfer
2B Channel Transfer (2BCT) is now supported. See the “Network Facility Request -
Two B Channel Transfer” section in the Global Call ISDN Technology Guide.
D-channel backup
In addition to NI-2 ISDN protocol support for D-channel backup, 4ESS and 5ESS protocol support for D-channel backup has been added in this release. Refer to the
DM3 Configuration Guide for more information.
Dynamic protocol selection
When using DMT160TEC and DMN160TEC boards, this feature enables changes on a trunk-by-trunk basis within selected front-end configurations (T1 or E1). For example, if a trunk is configured for E1 at download, a user can change that trunk to a different variant of the same E1 call control signaling protocol during runtime, for example, ISDN QSIG to ISDN NET5. Changes from one E1 call control signaling protocol to another E1 call control signaling protocol, for example, ISDN to R2MF or vice-versa are not supported. Changes to/from Clear Channel or NFAS are also excluded. This feature is supported on Intel NetStructure ® DMT160TEC and
DMN160TEC boards only. See the “Using Dynamic Trunk Configuration” section in the Global Call ISDN Technology Guide for more information.
Note: The number of channels per trunk must remain the same as originally configured. This means you cannot dynamically change a span from T1 to E1 or vice-versa. This functionality is only provided at download.
Dynamic line coding and frame selection
Allows dynamic configuration (post download) of the following trunk parameters:
• Line Type (E1 or T1)
• Frame Selection (D4 or ESF when using ISDN on T1; E1 standard or E1 standard and CRC-4 when using ISDN on E1)
See the “Using Dynamic Trunk Configuration” section in the Global Call ISDN
Technology Guide for more information. This feature is supported on Intel
NetStructure ® DMT160TEC and DMN160TEC boards only.
Support for Continuity Check IE
Global Call supports the Continuity Check IE (0x53) that is part of Codeset 6 for the
4ESS protocol. See the “Retrieving Continuity Check IE” section in the Global Call
ISDN Technology Guide for more information.
IP Media API Library
The IP Media library (IPML) is used to control media on IP devices. Voice over IP (VoIP) applications that use IP signaling stacks other than those supplied with Intel products may
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 36
6.6
use this library for application development. VoIP applications that use the Global Call library for call control will have limited need to use the IP Media Library directly.
Note: IP Media library functionality is documented in the IP Media Library API Library Reference and the IP Media Library API Programming Guide.
Features
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows provides the following new IP Media API Library features. These features are new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature Pack 1 for
Windows.
Support for “Early Media” capabilities on DM/IP boards
An RTP stream can be started in unidirectional mode prior to completing the connection in order to pass network tones back to the calling party, then changed to full-duplex mode when the connection is complete. See the “Configuring for Half- or
Full-Duplex Media Streams” chapter in the IP Media Library API Programming Guide and the ipm_StartMedia( ) and ipm_ModifyMedia( ) function descriptions in the IP
Media Library API Library Reference for more information.
Partial Support for SIP REINVITE on DM/IP boards
To support SIP REINVITE functionality, the ability to change the media stream direction and remote IP address and port information is provided via the
ipm_ModifyMedia( ) function. See the IP Media Library API Library Reference for more information.
Media LAN disconnection alarm
A software alarm that notifies an IPML application when a board's media LAN connection on IPT boards is lost (due to cable disconnection, for example) and when it is restored. This feature is implemented as a board-level QoS alarm. In the
IPM_QOS_ALARM_DATA structure, a new eQoSType value of
QOSTYPE_NETWORKFAILURE and associated eAlarmState of
ALARM_STATE_ON (indicating network connection loss) or ALARM_STATE_OFF
(indicating network connection restoration) are provided for this feature. See the
“Network Alarm Failure” section in the IP Media Library API Programming Guide and the IPM_QOS_ALARM_DATA structure description in the IP Media Library API
Library Reference for details.
Support for GMS-AMR coder
IPT boards support the GSM AMR-NB (adaptive multi-rate narrow band) coder for applications that use the IP Media Library. Eight different AMR-NB allowable rates from 4.75 kbps and 12.2 kbps are supported. See the “Supported Coder Properties for Intel NetStructure IPT Series Boards” table in the IP Media Library API Library
Reference for details.
Modular Station Interface API Library
The Modular Station Interface (MSI) API is used by the Intel NetStructure ® High Density
Station Interface (HDSI) boards, which provide high density analog station connectivity.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 37
The HDSI board can support up to 120 stations with tone detection and generation, and
FSK Caller ID transmission.
Note: Refer to the MSI API Library Reference and the MSI API Programming Guide for more information.
New Features
The following new MSI API library features have been implemented in System Release
6.1 cPCI for Windows. These features are new since System Release 6.0 cPCI Feature
Pack 1 for Windows.
Station Interface Alarms
This feature provides notification of problems with the communication link between a board and its associated Station Interface Box (SIB). The MSI API sends a station interface alarm to the application when a station interface goes offline, so that the application can stop sending calls to the station interfaces that are no longer in service. The MSI API can also notify the application when the problem is corrected; that is, when the station interface goes on-line. Example: If power to the SIB is lost or if any communication links between the board and the SIB are accidentally disconnected (e.g., cable is disconnected), the MSI API can notify the application by sending it an alarm event. See the MSI API Library Reference and the MSI API
Programming Guide for details.
Asynchronous Routing with ms_listenEx( ) and ms_unlistenEx( )
In addition to the functionality provided by ms_listen( ) and ms_unlisten( ), the new
ms_listenEx( ) and ms_unlistenEx( ) routing functions provide asynchronous routing through the mode parameter. The MSEV_LISTEN and MSEV_UNLISTEN events are also added to indicate the successful completion of the asynchronous routing operations, and the MSEV_LISTEN_FAIL and MSEV_UNLISTEN_FAIL events to indicate failure of the asynchronous routing operations. See the MSI API
Library Reference for details.
6.7
Standard Runtime Library
The Standard Runtime library (SRL) API provides a common interface for event handling and other functionality common to all Intel ® Dialogic ® and Intel NetStructure ® devices.
The Standard Runtime library provides the framework for implementing the supported programming models and serves as the central dispatcher for events that occur on all devices. Through the Standard Runtime library, events are handled in a standard manner.
Note: Refer to the SRL API Library Reference and SRL API Programming Guide for more information.
New Features
No new SRL API features have been implemented since System Release 6.0 cPCI
Feature Pack 1 for Windows.
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 38
6.8
Voice API Library
The Voice API library provides an interface for developing a wide range of call processing applications such as voice messaging, interactive voice response, telemarketing/call center, operator services, and more. Features include tone signaling, global tone detection and generation, call progress analysis, and a variety of voice encoding algorithms selectable on a channel-by-channel basis.
Note: Refer to the Voice API Library Reference and Voice API Programming Guide for more information.
