Set Up The Controller List For The G700 Media Gateway - Avaya G700 Installation And Upgrades

Run the ping command
1
At the MG-???-n(config)# prompt, type
where <IP_address> is the address of an S8300, S8500, or S8700 Media Server, the VoIP engine,
or any other functioning endpoint accessible on the customer's LAN. It is recommended to ping
endpoints on both the same subnet and a different subnet.
Ping results appear on the screen, similar to the following example.

Set up the Controller List for the G700 Media
Gateway
NOTE:
The Avaya Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW) performs this task automatically.
To complete the configuration of the G700 Media Gateway, you need to administer a list of primary and
alternate controllers. This list begins with the IP address of the primary controller. In the event that the
G700 Media Gateway loses contact with its primary controller, it will seek to re-register with the primary
controller first, then with the other controllers on this list. The other controllers are S8500 or S8700
Media Servers that can act as the primary controller, or S8300 Media Servers configured as Local
Survivable Processors (LSPs).
Up to four IP addresses separated by commas can be entered to form the controller list.

At the MG-???-n(configure)# prompt, type the following commands to designate the primary,
secondary, and LSP controllers for this G700:
