Installation and Configuration
- About Installation and Configuration
  Installation and Configuration provides information about the requirements and steps needed to install and configure the MATRIXX Digital Commerce software suite.
- Installing MATRIXX Digital Commerce
  MATRIXX Digital Commerce has a set of installation requirements, which are summarized below with installation and setup procedures.
- System Requirements
  The servers running the MATRIXX Digital Commerce software must meet specific hardware, software, operating system, and network requirements. In addition, certain third-party applications must be installed to run the MATRIXX Engine and measures must be taken to ensure the system is secure.
- MATRIXX Digital Commerce Software Packages
  The MATRIXX Digital Commerce software is delivered in RPM Package Manager (RPM) files.
- Installing MATRIXX Engine
  For production systems, the software must be installed on multiple blade servers that together form MATRIXX Engine. An environment can contain multiple engines for high availability. Installation prerequisites and instructions for installing the MATRIXX Engine software are provided below.
- Installing MATRIXX Gateways and Web Apps
  Install and set up the MATRIXX Gateways and Web Apps, including a secure communications channel to MATRIXX Engine. A production system can include more than one installation of the gateways and Web apps to facilitate high availability (HA).
- Installing MATRIXX Traffic Routing Agent
  Topics below provide information about how to install the Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) software.
- Installing MATRIXX Network Enabler
  Topics below provide information about how to install the Network Enabler software.
- Installing the Notification Server
  The Notification Server delivers notification messages to configured delivery channels and returns the notification message text and delivery ID to the Charging Server. Read on to learn how to install and set up the Notification Server.
- Installing Diameter Event Logger
  Consider the following before installing Diameter Event Logger.
- Configuring MATRIXX Engine
  You can customize the installation of MATRIXX Engine for a system that has not yet been deployed. Setup tasks include setting up business rules for MATRIXX Charging Application, MATRIXX Policy Application, and Call Control Framework (CCF). For information about changing the configuration of a running engine, see the discussion about changing the configuration of an engine.
- Configuring Gateway Proxy
  The Gateway Proxy service facilitates communication with MATRIXX Engine and is installed with default logging behavior, connection, and security information that you can configure for your environment. You must also configure the Linux Firewall with an allow list for accessing a MATRIXX Engine.
- Configuring MATRIXX Traffic Routing Agent
  You must configure traffic routing for a new installation of MATRIXX Digital Commerce using the Traffic Routing Agent (TRA) servers. All TRA servers should be configured as clusters (HA pairs) to provide failover capabilities.
- Configuring RS Gateway
  Configuring RS Gateway includes configuring the gateway to communicate with Gateway Proxy, configuring RS Gateway security, and configuring RS Gateway to connect to the Event Repository.
- Configuring ActiveMQ High Availability
  MATRIXX Engine supports high availability for the Notification Framework.
- Configuring Notification Messaging
  To enable notification messaging, you must configure the notification-specific global configuration questions during engine configuration, configure ActiveMQ, and configure the MATRIXX Notification Server. All components are required for publishing notifications to third-party systems. If you do not configure a JMS server address, notifications are published to MATRIXX Event Files (MEFs).
- Configuring Sub-Domain Routing (Multiple Sub-domains)
  In a MATRIXX Digital Commerce environment where multiple customer sub-domains are implemented in separate engine chains, you configure sub-domain routing so that traffic is directed to the correct customer sub-domain where the subscriber is homed. You must configure different components across MATRIXX Digital Commerce for sub-domain routing to work.
- Configuring MATRIXX Call Control Framework
  Call Control Framework (CCF), which provides the communication services between Intelligent Networks and a MATRIXX Engine, is installed with default connection information that you can configure for your environment.
  - Configure MATRIXX Call Control Framework
    This procedure explains how to enable Call Control Framework (CCF) functionality, and describes how to set CCF configuration on the processing blades for Network Enabler, CAMEL Gateway, and the Signaling Connection Control Part (SCCP) address.
- Configuring MATRIXX Network Enabler
  MATRIXX Network Enabler should be configured as a HA pair to provide failover capabilities.
- Configuring CDR Processing
  The MATRIXX Engine can import and rate Solution42® CDRs and generate MATRIXX Event Detail Records (EDRs) from them. Generally, this is used only when integrating with an Oracle BRM system. Other projects should use external mediation to convert external CDRs into Diameter messages for MATRIXX processing.
- Extending MATRIXX Engine Functionality
  You can easily extend MATRIXX Engine functionality to capture new subscriber-related data and then use the extended fields as a basis for pricing, rating, and policy decisions. You can also add new Diameter AVPs to capture information from the network and base rating and post-rating operations on this data.
- Uninstalling MATRIXX Digital Commerce
  If necessary, you can follow these instructions to uninstall the MATRIXX Engine software. This process will uninstall the following components: Proxy Server, Traffic Routing Agent, Network Enabler, My MATRIXX, and their related files. For information about uninstalling the MATRIXX Web apps, see MATRIXX Web App Administration.

Configuring MATRIXX Call Control Framework

Call Control Framework (CCF), which provides the communication services between Intelligent Networks and a MATRIXX Engine, is installed with default connection information that you can configure for your environment.

Configuring CCF involves enabling CCF functionality, setting Network Enabler configuration, CAMEL Gateway configuration, and Signaling Connection Control Part (SCCP) address configuration on the processing blades, and then configuring Network Enabler on the Network Enabler servers.

In addition, you must configure the timer index for the alert database. The alert database is used for triggering an alert when a CCF operation requires prompt attention. For more information, see the discussion about alerts configuration in Call Control Framework Integration.
