Chapter 7: Installing the media gateways

In a new installation, the S8700 series media servers work with only the Avaya G650 Media
Gateway. However, an Avaya MCC1 Media Gateway is provided in a multiconnect configuration
when a switch node carrier (SNC) for Center Stage Switch (CSS) is required. The MCC1 Media
Gateway may contain one port network in the A, B, C, and D positions and the SNC in the E
position. For duplicated bearer networks, the D position also may be used for the duplicated
(B-PNC) SNC.
In a migration the media servers work with Avaya MCC1 and SCC1 Media Gateways in a
multiconnect configuration, and G600 or CMC1 Media Gateways in an IP configuration.
In addition, the media servers work with Avaya G350 and G700 Media Gateways. The media
servers work with the G650 Media Gateway only when the gateway has a TN799DP C-LAN
circuit pack installed. These gateways are treated as endpoints off the TN799DP.
Media gateways usually are installed in the same equipment room as the media server rack
hardware (control network). However, the media gateways can be installed in another location,
including another state or country.
