Administering Media Servers
G700 Media Gateway administration
Figure 55: The G700 Media Gateway (front view)
(For S8300 and S8700 Media Servers) Key components of the G700 Media Gateway include:
1
LED Status Panel (top left) for the media gateway
2
S8300 Media Server slot (V1). The G700 Media Gateway does not have an S8300 Media Server
in its basic configuration.
3
P330 Expansion slot (bottom left) for adding modules such as a 16-port Ethernet expansion
module, fiber interfaces, ATM access or WAN access
4
Dual 10/100Base-T Ethernet Ports for connection to the corporate LAN (bottom center of chassis)
5
Up to three additional media modules in slots V2 to V4 on the right side of the chassis (slots are
numbered from top to bottom)
6
8-Pin RS-232 Serial Port (Console) for direct-connect P330 stack processor administration
(typically done by Services personnel)
S8300 Media Server faceplate
(For S8300 Media Servers)
shows the faceplate of the S8300 Media Server.
Figure 56: S8300 Media Server faceplate
The faceplate of the S8300 Media Server has the following components:
•
The LED array on the left indicates when the S8300 is active and when it is safe to power it down.
•
A Shut Down button can be used to shut down the server (the S8300 can also be shut down and
restarted using software commands).
•
A Services Ethernet interface provides a direct connection to a laptop computer connected with a
crossover cable. Normally only Services technicians use this interface; most ongoing S8300
administration is done using the Ethernet connection to the corporate LAN on the media gateway.
•
One of the two USB connections may be used to attach an external modem, primarily used to
report alarms to a Services support agency.
•
The label on the right provides identification information for the S8300 Media Server.
