Overview

After the preinstallation tasks are complete, you can install the Nortel
Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 (MCG 3100) software in a single
or redundant server implementation. During the MCG 3100 software
installation, a number of prompts appear. You can accept the default value,
or enter a new value at each prompt.

Standalone and redundant server implementations

For a standalone server implementation, install the software on a standalone
server. For a redundant server implementation, install the software on two
servers.
You must install the license file on each of the servers in a redundant
implementation.

Standalone server option

A standalone server implementation does not provide redundancy and
therefore provides no failover protection. If a server component fails or
becomes inaccessible, the mobile clients are denied access until the server
is recovers.

Redundant server option

A redundant server implementation provides redundancy. If a server
component fails or becomes inaccessible, the mobile clients can restart a
communication session with the backup server.
