Chapter 5: Configuring the G450

The G450 requires software configuration. The G450 can be configured using:
The Avaya Installation Wizard (Avaya IW). Avaya IW is a wizard that prompts you for all
●
configurations required to complete the installation of the G450. Avaya IW is used only to
configure a G450 with an S8300. See
(Avaya IW)
The Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW). The GIW is a wizard that prompts you for all
●
configurations required to complete the installation of the G450. You can run GIW to
configure a G450 without an S8300. See
Wizard (GIW)
The Avaya G450 Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is a comprehensive tool for
●
configuring the gateway and includes all supported configuration tasks. For information
about configuration using the CLI, see Administration for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway,

Configuring basic gateway connectivity

You can run an installation script on a newly installed gateway to configure the basic network
parameters required to achieve network connectivity. A remote technician can then further
configure the gateway as required. Note that the installation script does not require running any
CLI command.
Note:
The installation script is supported from branch gateway firmware version 29.22.x.
Note:
1. Prepare a laptop with SSH client software.
