Cabling and Installing OSN Server Platform
This section is intended for customers who wish to install the optional Open Solution Network (OSN) server platform functionality. The OSN platform allows you to host third-party applications such as an IP PBX, Pre-Paid, and IP PBX redundancy.
The OSN platform includes a hard disk to provide a complete solution within the device's chassis. The OSN is based on single and mid-sized Advanced Mezzanine Card / AMC (AdvancedMC form-factor) modules. These are housed in the chassis' AMC slots on the rear panel.
The OSN can run on Linux™ or Microsoft Windows® operating systems. To install an operating system on your OSN4B server, follow the procedure below.
