Application Gateway Overview

Note

The Application Gateway 2000 is an appliance containing software

and an IBM xSeries 306m server. The IBM documentation that is

shipped with the IBM server includes rack mounting instructions,

physical specifications, safety information, and operating and

environmental information. The Application Gateway 2000 is not

user-serviceable, therefore the IBM documentation that covers

tasks such as opening the server and replacing parts do not apply

to the Application Gateway. Defective Application Gateways

should be returned to Nortel.

The Nortel Application Gateway 2000 delivers business

applications to the screens and speakers of Nortel IP

telephones. The applications delivered to Nortel IP Phones

and other devices include Nortel Voice Office applications

and Nortel Guest Services.

The location of an Application Gateway in a network is largely based on

the configuration of the existing network. The flexible deployment of the

Application Gateway enables you to connect it to application servers,

routers, firewalls, and switches. For information on integrating

Application Gateways into your network, refer to the Application Gateway

Network Integration Guide.
The following topics provide an overview to the physical components of
