The G350 with a Media Server infrastructure is comprised of three modular elements: Media Gateways, Media Servers, and Software. Integration with your network system The G350 with a Media Server incorporates the following features that help it fit easily into your system: • It is built around open IP standards (H.248 and H.323).
G350. The latter subsystems are not monitored directly by a Media Server. It is anticipated that future development will enhance the capability of the G350’s maintenance software to maintain all subsystems, which will lessen the G350’s dependence on a Media Server.
Modules are administered from the server, using Communication Manager. Maintenance for each Media Module is very similar to that for its respective DEFINITY server circuit pack counterpart. Field replacement of Media Modules can be performed in many cases without removing power to the G350 (hot swapping).
Avaya Integrated Management • Avaya QoS Manager You can access the Avaya G350 Media Gateway and the Avaya S8300 Media Server in several ways: • Web server access to the Media Gateway or Media Server IP address (accesses Web page with Online Help) •...
The Avaya G350 Media Gateway Command Line Interface (CLI) provides access to configurable and read-only data of all G350 subsystems as well as running tests and displaying results. As a minimum, the CLI supports all functionality the Device Manager provides. It provides access to the status, parameters, and test of Media Modules, IP Entity Configuration, TFTP/FTP Servers, and DSP/VoIP resources.

• Changing the Media Module type Since Voice Media Modules on the G350 are administered by Communication Manager, the modules are not inserted until the G350 registers with the Communication Manager. Likewise, all Voice Media Modules and associated Maintenance Objects are removed if the G350 link goes down. Data Media Modules are operational regardless of the G350 registration status.
Page 36
The G350 then sends appropriate H.248 messages to the controller, creating Communication Manager objects. You can hot-swap voice modules. This means you can add a voice module to the Avaya G350 Media Gateway while the system is running, without any disruption to your network. Configuration of the G350 is not necessary when you add a voice module.

G350 component maintenance Permitted Slots The G350 chassis has six media module slots, marked V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6. Each media module is restricted to certain slots. Before inserting Media Modules, consult the following table to find out which Media Modules can be...

Hidden Communication Manager SAT commands Certain Communication Manager SAT commands have no practical use or are not supported on an Avaya G350 Media Gateway.

The S8300 Media Server/LSP runs a subset of Communication Manager code.

Dynamic Call Admission Control In order to manage the flow of calls and voice data on the G350 most efficiently, the Media Gateway Controller must have real-time information about the network topology and currently available bandwidth.
System resets There is no change in how Communication Manager functions for system resets in Avaya S8300 Media Server with a media gateway. Although translations may be present for a media gateway, Communication Manager waits for a link to be established before attempting to access the media gateway. Upon notification that registration has occurred, maintenance waits for the Media Module Manager to indicate that a Media Module is present before attempting to determine which Media Modules are present.
In this case, the log entries may still be useful in tracking down a potential source of trouble. H.248 server-to-gateway Link Recovery The H.248 link between an Avaya server running Avaya Communication Manager Software and the Avaya Media Gateway provides the signaling protocol for: •...

NOTE: Avaya Communication Manager does not raise an alarm until the Link Loss Delay timer expires. If the link to the original gateway is restored before this timer expires, then no alarm is raised.

In addition, the G350’s packet sniffing service is capable of capturing non-Ethernet packets, such as frame-relay and PPP. Non-Ethernet packets are wrapped in a dummy Ethernet header to allow them to be viewed in a libpcap format. Thus, the G350 allows you to analyze packets on all the interfaces of the device.
Page 278
A capture list contains rules and actions. A rule specifies criteria against which packets are tested. The action tells the G350 what to do for packets matching the rule criteria. Only packets that match the specified criteria and have an action of capture are captured to the capture file.
Page 279
For example, to capture filter-group set the G350 to use capture-list 501 on its interfaces, specify the following command: G350-001# capture filter-group 501 If no capture-list is applied, the packet sniffing service captures all packets.
This feature is critical for mechanisms such as policy-based routing that must guarantee service on a particular path. Maintenance of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway June 2004...

Media Modules, Media Servers, and the Media Gateway are all capable of detecting internal failures and generating traps and alarms. • The G350 detects faults and alerts the Media Server; the Media Server then raises an alarm, and sends the alarm to an appropriate alarm management site. •...
TRAP A trap is an event notification that is sent to the SNMP trap manager and received from the Media Gateway, or RTCP Monitor (Avaya VisAbility). ALARM Some traps are determined to be an alarm. If determined to be an alarm they are sent to an appropriate alarm management site, such as INADS.
Alarming Alarm-related LEDs Alarm-related LEDs The following alarm-related LEDs appear on the faceplate of the G350 or attendant console, and show how certain LEDs reflect specific alarm situations. Table 155: Alarm-Related LEDs Location Alarm-Related Cause ALARM LED Attendant Console The system alarm causes the attendant console ALARM LED to light.
Avaya P333T User’s Guide. The Dynamic Trap Manager feature of the G350 insures that SNMP traps and alarms are always sent to the currently active Media Gateway Controller. By default, the Dynamic Trap Manager sends all SNMP messages to the currently active MGC.
OSS Method – The server’s software applications and hardware devices under its control can generate Operations Support System (OSS) alarms. These alarms are recorded in the server logs, and may be reported to Avaya’s Initialization and Administration System (INADS) or another services support agency over the server’s modem interface.

Configuring the G350 to send SNMPv3 alarms The Avaya G350 Media Gateway uses SNMPv3 for traps and alarms. In order to configure the Avaya G350 Media Gateway to send SNMP traps to the primary server you must enable the SNMP agent, specify the SNMP host, and setup SNMP authentication.
Page 291
Cascade connection fault notifications Configure SNMPv3 authentication In order to use SNMPv3 authentication, you must create users, groups, and views for the G350. The G350 provides several pre-configured views and groups for setting up SNMP authentication. Refer Table 157, G350 Pre-configured Views,...

(USM) 3 (AuthPriv) For a complete discussion of SNMP administration, refer to Administration of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway, 555-245-501. For the full syntax of SNMP-related commands and an explanation of their parameters, refer to Avaya G350 Media Gateway CLI Reference, 555-245-202.
Alarm format G350 traps A trap is a special condition that exists or an event that occurs within the Avaya G350 Media Gateway system. Some traps indicate configuration changes or component modifications and are merely informative. Other traps indicate warning or error conditions that may compromise the performance of the media gateway.
