NEC UNIVERGE SV9100 Manual page 125

NetLink provides a seamless connection, using an IP network, to join multiple SV9100 communication
servers into what would appear to be a single communications server. With a unified numbering plan,
users can access any extension in the network as if they were in the same location.
NetLink differs from other networking protocols because all slots, trunk ports and station ports belong to,
and are controlled by, the Primary system. This makes the numbering plan and trunk routing much
simpler.
NetLink allows the connection of up to 16 systems, each must have a unique Node ID. Each system in the
network must have:
Only SV9100 systems can be Netlinked together.
GCD-CP10
GPZ-IPLE
Although 16 systems can be connected together, the maximum number of station and trunk ports is limited
to the maximum for one system. This is due to the fact that all stations and trunks are allocated ports from
the Primary system.
NetLink can control a maximum of 240 slots (including GCD-CP10's). This may reduce the maximum
number of nodes in the network depending on the number of slots used per node.
From Release 3 software it is possible to register a SIP MLT to any node in a NetLink environment. Please
refer to the SIP MLT section for further information.

02)
NetLink System ID - Used to assign all systems in the network with a unique node ID (1 – 50).
01-01)
Primary Candidate Priority - Used to assign the Primary Candidate Priority. The number the system uses
to elect the Primary System. (1 being the highest priority)
Primary System Selection Method - The method used for electing the Primary System.
Signal Transmit Method - Sets whether the system uses the nagle algorithm to buffer data and improve
transfer efficiency through reduced network load. Benefits low bandwidth links.
Primary System IP Address – The IP address of the system which is nominated as the Primary when the
Primary System Selection Method is set to Top Priority Primary System.
Automatic IP Address List Update – Controls whether to update the NetLink Systems list automatically or
not. (PRG51-13-01)
Time Zone Method – Controls which features are adjusted to the correct time zone for a specific node.
(PRG51-13-02)
MAC Address Authorization – If this is enabled, the system will check the MAC address of a system
before allowing it to connect to the NetLink network.
