Adding a WAN line

You must order, connect, configure and test the WAN line before adding the line to the Avaya
G450 Media Gateway.

Ordering the WAN line

If you need to order the WAN line, make sure that the service provider installs the line near the
physical location of the G450 and verifies that the line is working before you configure the WAN
on the G450.

Connecting the WAN line
