Implementation Readiness Analysis

The implementation readiness analysis includes four categories:

Site readiness

Voice network readiness

Data network readiness

IPT readiness

The following sections cover the checks required for each category before proceeding with the IPT deployment.

Site Readiness Analysis

The site readiness analysis includes the checks to ensure that all the information is available to begin deploying the IPT endpoints (see Table H-4). The site readiness analysis includes tasks to do the following:

Identify equipment placement and termination points

Ensure that rack space is available to mount the equipment

Ensure that necessary cables and connectors are available

Check the power availability and stable environmental conditions

Table H-4. Site Readiness Analysis Checklist
No.	Question	Answer
I. Equipment Placement and Termination
1	Do you have all the network topology diagrams available?	Yes No Attach list.
2	Do you have a list of termination points for the IP Phones available? Get a list of the buildings and .oors where IP Phones need to be deployed.	Yes No Attach list.
3	Do you have a list of termination points for the voice gateways?	Yes No Attach list.
4	What is the contact information for the local telephone company for each site?	Name of carrier: Contact phone: Phone number: E-mail: Contract number to be supplied when reporting problems:
5	Do you have a list of IP addressing/VLAN assignment information?	Yes No Attach list.
II. Rack Space Requirements You should make sure that all IPT components have required rack space available for the installation. The rack space requirement varies depending on the type of server, switch, or router. You should obtain the number of rack units required to mount each hardware device. Refer to the vendors' product documentation to obtain this information.
1	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the CallManager servers?	Yes No Number of servers: Rack space units required per server:
2	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the Unity servers?	Yes No Number of servers: Rack space units required per server:
3	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the Unity Bridge servers?	Yes No Number of servers: Rack space units required per server:
4	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the voice gateways?	Yes No Number of gateways: Rack space units required per gateway:
5	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the gatekeeper?	Yes No Number of gatekeepers: Rack space units required per gatekeeper:
6	Do you have enough rack space to rack mount the application servers?	Yes No Number of application servers: Rack space units required per application server:
III. Cabling and Termination Points Different types of cables are required for implementing the IPT network in different parts of the network.
1	What type of cabling is used within the LAN?	Cat 3 Cat 5
2	What are the T1/E1 line terminations for connecting the voice circuits?	Site: Building: Floor:
3	What are the locations of analog line terminations?	Site: Building: Floor:
4	Is distance between the telco termination and the voice gateway in acceptable range?	Yes No Distance in feet:
IV. Power and HVAC Requirements
1	Are the power requirements met, as evaluated in the planning phase? Power calculator: http://www.cisco.com/go/powercalculator	Yes No
2	Can HVAC systems take the additional load of the equipment?	Yes No
3	Does the site have proper grounding for the equipment?	Yes No

Voice Network Readiness

The voice network readiness analysis includes checks to ensure that the customer has taken all the necessary steps required to integrate, if required, the newly deployed IPT system with legacy PBX, voice-mail, and Automated Call Distribution (ACD) systems. See Table H-5.

Table H-5. Voice Network Readiness Analysis Checklist
No.	Question	Answer
I. Voice Circuit Analysis
1	Is the interfacing equipment required for integration of PBX, voice-mail, and ACD systems with CallManager available?	Yes No
2	Do the software versions that run on the PBX, voice mail, and other equipment requiring integration support CallManager?	Yes No
3	If moving the PSTN circuits from the PBX to the IPT system, does a different telco interface need to be requested?	Yes No
4	Who are the contacts for the PBX, voice-mail, and ACD systems? You might have to obtain a list of additional contacts, depending on need. This staff should have access rights to make congigurations changes.	PBX system contact name: Work phone: E-mail: Cell phone: Voice mail system contact name: Work phone: E-mail: Cell phone: ACD system contact name: Work phone: E-mail: Cell phone:
5	Did you place the order with the telco to terminate the new voice circuits?	Yes No
6	If you plan to migrate users from the PBX system to the IPT system, have you grouped the identified users?	Yes No

Data Network Readiness

The data network readiness analysis includes checks to ensure that the customer data network is ready to carry the voice traffic (see Table H-6). In this analysis, you check whether the customer has followed your recommendations to .ll the gaps in the infrastructure that were identified during the planning phase.

Table H-6. Data Network Readiness Analysis Checklist
No.	Question	Answer
I. LAN Analysis
1	Are the switch ports on the LAN switches enabled? Are required QoS configurationssuch as auxiliary VLAN, port trusts, speed/duplex, inline power, and recommended software versionscompleted to connect the IP Phones, servers, and voice gateways?	Yes No Yes No
2	Is the DHCP server configured with all the scopes, correct default gateways, DHCP option 150 or 66, and DNS values?	Yes No
3	Is the IP helper address configuration that was completed on the routed interface pointing to the right DHCP server for each IP Phone VLAN segment?	Yes No
4	Did you provide the list of server names and IP addresses to the administrators of the DNS servers? This is required so that DNS servers can resolve the names of the voice servers properly. It is always better to do this in advance because the DNS replication process takes a few hours to replicate the information to all the servers in the network.	Yes No
II. WAN Analysis
1	Are the WAN routers running the right Cisco IOS software to support the required QoS feature set?	Yes No
2	Is the configuration on the WAN routers in accordance with QoS recommendations to transport the voice traffic in the priority queue?	Yes No
3	If a gatekeeper is required for CAC, is it rack mounted, loaded with the right Cisco IOS software, and configured?	Yes No
4	Do the WAN routers have sufficient DRAM?	Yes No
5	Are the route-trip delay times between the central and branch sites within the acceptable range to achieve good quality on voice calls?	Yes No

IPT Readiness Analysis

The IPT readiness analysis is intended to ensure that the detailed design tasks such as call-processing design, dial plan design, and decisions on the software versions to be deployed in the network are completed and all the necessary software and licenses are available. See Table H-7.

Table H-7. IPT Readiness Analysis Checklist
No.	Question	Answer
I. IPT Readiness Analysis
1	Have you completed a detailed design for call-processing servers, dial plan, gateway selection, and sizing ?	Yes No
2	If you are deploying Cisco Unity, do you have a detailed design to deploy?	Yes No
3	Have you completed the design of the CRS/IPCC Express servers and other application servers?	Yes No
4	Have you completed the design of IPT features, such as AutoAttendant, IVR, Web Dialer, SoftPhone, Cisco IP Communicator, IPMA, and Extension Mobility?	Yes No
5	Do you have all the servers rack mounted and ready to start the installation of the software?	Yes No
6	Do you have all the available software disks and licenses?	Yes No
7	Do you have information on all the latest operating system service releases that need to be applied to servers?	Yes No
