Configure the G700 Media Gateway
This section describes the procedures for assigning IP addresses to the G700 components and for
assigning IP routing.
Assign the IP Addresses of the G700 Media
Gateway Components
NOTE:
The Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW) performs this task automatically.
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:
Access the P330 stack processor
1 Set up a direct connection to the G700 Console (serial) port and access the P330 stack processor
using Hyperterm (or similar terminal emulation application).
2 Login as root.
Assign the IP address to the P330 stack processor
CAUTION:
The nvram init command initializes the switch parameters to the factory defaults. This
command is normally used only for new installations.
1 Initialize NVRAM: type nvram init
2 Change mode to configure: type configure
3 At the P330-1(super)# prompt, type configure.
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 that the IP route command needs to send packets to.
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
