Set up the Controller List for the G700 Media
Gateway
Note: If you are using the Avaya Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW), the GIW performs
this task automatically.
To complete the configuration of the G700 Media Gateway, you need to administer a list of primary and
alternate controllers. This list begins with the IP address of the primary controller. In the event that the G700
Media Gateway loses contact with its primary controller, it will seek to re-register with the primary
controller first, then with the other controllers on this list. The other controllers are either S8700 Media
Servers that can act as the primary controller, or S8300 Media Servers configured as Local Survivable
Processors (LSPs).
Up to four IP addresses separated by commas can be entered to form the controller list.
1 . At the MG-???-n(configure)# prompt, type the following command to designate the
primary, secondary, and LSP controllers for this G700:
set mgc list <ip_address> [,<ip_address> [,<ip_address>
[,<ip_address>]]]
where, the first <ip_address> is the IP address of the primary controller for this G700. If the
primary controller is an S8700, this is the IP address of a C-LAN board that is connected to a pair
of duplicated S8700s. If the Primary controller is an S8300, this is the IP address of the S8300.
The next three <ip_address> parameters are optional IP addresses of up to three alternate
controllers. Each of the three optional controllers can be an S8700 duplicated pair or an S8300
configured as an LSP, depending on the G700’s primary controller.
The following table describes the possible optional controllers for an S8300 and S8700 primary
controller.:
For an S8700 primary controller, the last three IP addresses in the list can be either the addresses
of C-LANS (which are connected to the same pair of S8700s that act as primary controllers) or
addresses of LSPs. If you enter a combination of both, you must list C-LANs first and the LSPs
last, after the C-LANs.
2 . Type reset mgp at the MG-???-n(configure)# prompt to reset the G700 Media
Gateway processor.
A system prompt asks to confirm the reset.
Primary Server Controller IP Addresses
S8300
First: IP address of the S8300 primary controller.
Next three: one, two, or three IP addresses of S8300s configured
as LSPs.
S8700
First: IP address of the C-LAN for the S8700 primary controller.
Next three: one, two, or three IP addresses of alternate C-LANs
and/or LSPs.
