Introduction

The TM 3.1 PC application is designed to support both ITG 2.x (ITG Trunk
2.0 and ITG Trunk 2.1) and IP Trunk 3.01 (and later). The TM 3.1 application
name is ITG ISDN IP Trunks.

TM 3.1 ITG Engineering rules

TM 3.1 can manage multiple nodes with multiple IP trunk cards. The
maximum number of IP trunk cards that can be configured by TM 3.1 is
dependant on the following:

1. All TM 3.1 ITG data is stored in a single database file. The entire

database is read into PC memory when the program is launched. If a
large IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) network is to be managed from a single
TM 3.1 server, then each TM 3.1 PC client should have more than the
minimum RAM requirement of 64 Mb. The recommended RAM is 128
Mb or more. If the data is stored on an TM 3.1 server, the application
launch time increases as the size of the IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) network
grows (this also depends on the network speed). For the TM 3.1 server,
the minimum RAM required is 128 Mb; 256 or more Mb is recommended.
