Hardware/Software Requirements

ELA runs on the same machine as AUDIX.

ELA must be installed on a Lucent I

NTUITY

R4.2-4 or higher machine. If

your site has an earlier release, contact your Lucent service representative
to obtain the necessary upgrade. ELA is not available for pre-R4 Lucent
I

NTUITY

systems.

MAP/40s machines require 64k of RAM.

LAN Impact

If your configuration includes a LAN, planning ELA implementation should
involve your PC/LAN administrator(s) to ensure that AUDIX and the network are
not adversely affected. The amount of LAN traffic on your system from ELA
messages could increase if ELA will be sending messages for delivery to an
e-mail or Message Manager recipient or to TCP/IP-networked remote machines.
If none of these are valid for your site, ELA will not cause any LAN traffic.

See Chapter 6 in your

book:

If your site has e-mail, to calculate some initial traffic estimates

If your site has Message Manager, to calculate some initial traffic
estimates

Remote Message Impact

If your site is networked, estimate the increase in the amount of remote traffic by
first determining the percent of current traffic that is remote and calculating the
number of messages/minute that percent represents. When ELA is actively
sending messages, add that number of messages to the traffic estimate for
remote message delivery.

NOTE:
For typical applications of ELA, the increase in messaging traffic can be
negligible.
