Manual installation of a new G700 with an S8300
502 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server
Checking for IP connections
After you have assigned IP addresses to the P330 Stack Processor (Layer 2 Switching
Processor), the G700 Media Gateway MGP, media modules, and the VoIP resources, validate
the IP connections.
To run the ping command
1. At the MG-???-n(config)# prompt, type ping mgp <IP_address>
where <IP_address> is the address of an S8300, S8500, S8700, S8710, or S8720 Media
Server, the VoIP engine, or any other functioning endpoint accessible on the customer’s
LAN. It is recommended to ping endpoints on both the same subnet and a different subnet.
Ping results appear on the screen, similar to the following example.
Ping MGP results
2. Check that the same number of packets transmitted were also received.
3. Type ping voip v0 <IP_address>
<IP_address> is the address of the G700, or any other functioning endpoint on the
customer’s LAN.
Ping results appear on the screen, similar to the following example.
