Installing or converting to an S8500 LSP
6. Enter a network region for the LSP. The default is 1. However, there might be a different
network region better suited for the LSP to provide media gateway and IP telephone
support.
7. On pages 2 and 3 of the screen, add any adjuncts that the LSP might support if a failover
from the primary controller occurs.

Enable license server capability on a media gateway, if necessary
If a G700 Media Gateway is providing the serial number for the license, skip this step.
If a G250 or G350 Media Gateway is providing the serial number, access the administration
level command line on the media gateway and run the command ip license-server.
Note:
For the license server role, select a gateway that is physically located near the
Note:
LSP.
Install and verify the license on the new LSP
On the S8500 your are converting to an LSP, install a new license file with the appropriate
settings for an LSP server.
The new license file has the following attributes:
Local Survivable Processor (FEAT_LSP) set to Y.
●
A Module ID (MID) greater than 1: The license file sets this value. Therefore, you cannot
●
administer the MID in Communication Manager.
A System ID (SID): The SID is unique to the system configuration. The primary controller
●
and all LSPs must have the same SID.
The serial number of an H.248 media gateway to serve as the license serial number host.
●
The license serial number host can, therefore, be a G250, G250, or G700 Media Gateway.
When you reset the system later in this procedure, the LSP sends this serial number to the
primary controller. The primary controller then matches the serial number to that of an
existing media gateway. The primary controller sends back to the LSP the IP address of the
media gateway. The LSP can then verify its license by contacting that media gateway and
requesting its serial number. The LSP compares the serial number received from the media
gateway with the serial number from the license of the LSP.
