Configure the G700
Issue 9.1 June 2006 551
Assigning the IP addresses of the G700 media gateway
components
This section describes how to assign the IP addresses and IP routes to the G700 Media
Gateway and its components. The IP addresses should be available to you on the IP
Addressing Planning Form. The command arguments you will be supplying include:
● VLAN — Virtual Local Area Network: a defined network segment that allows users on that
segment to have priority services in sharing information with each other.
If the network is not using VLANs, the VLAN should be 1. Otherwise, use the VLAN
numbers indicated in your planning forms. The G700 Media Gateway should be assigned
the same VLAN as the VLAN to which the Ethernet ports are connected. The P330 stack
processor might or might not be assigned to the customer’s network management VLAN.
● IP address — the unique identifier assigned to an entity on the customer LAN.
● Netmask — the subnet mask for the customer’s LAN segment.
● Destination — distant networks to which the IP route command needs to send packets.
Usually generalized to 0.0.0.0 for networks other than the local segment.
● default gateway — the gateway the ip route command specifies to get to the distant
networks.
This section contains the following procedures:
● To access the P330 stack processor
● To assign the IP address to the P330 stack processor
● To establish IP routing for the stack
● To check the serial number of the G700 media gateway processor
● To assign the IP address to the G700 media gateway processor
● To assign the default IP route to the G700 media gateway
● To assign IP addresses to the VoIP resources
● Checking for IP connections
To access the P330 stack processor
1. Set up a direct connection to the G700 Console (serial) port and access the P330 stack
processor using Hyperterminal (or similar terminal emulation application).
2. Login as root.
