The Branch Gateway's MGC settings
Use the set mgc list command to set the Branch Gateway's MGC. You can enter the IP
addresses of up to four MGCs with the set mgc list command. The first MGC on the list
is the primary MGC. The Branch Gateway searches for the primary MGC first. If it cannot
connect to the primary MGC, it searches for the next MGC on the list, and so on. If there are
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in the same index on the MGC list, the IPv6 address is
preferred.
This allows you to select the destination address; the source address is selected according to
the destination address, e.g., if the first address in the mgc list is an IPv6 address and the GW
has both a IPv4 and a IPv6 address then the gateway selects its IPv6 address as the source
address.
When SLS is enabled, the MGC list includes the SLS module as a fifth entry on the MGC list.
For details about SLS, see
Note:
If the MGC is an S87XX server, the first server on the list will normally be the primary C-
LAN board connected to the server. If the MGC is an S8400 or S85XX, the first server on
the list will be either the primary C-LAN board connected to the server, or an Ethernet port
on the server that has been enabled for processor Ethernet connections. If the MGC is an
S8300, the first server on the list will be the IP address of the S8300. The remaining servers
will be either alternate C-LAN boards connected to the S8400, S85XX, or S87XX servers,
or an S8300 configured as an LSP, or the port enabled as the Ethernet processor port on
an S85XX configured as an LSP.
Example of setting the Branch Gateway's MGC
In the following example of the set mgc list command, if the MGC with the IPv4 address
135.6.8.99 and IPv6 address 2001:db8::370:7334 is available, that MGC becomes the Branch
Gateway's MGC. If that server is not available, the Branch Gateway searches for the next MGC
on the list, and so on.
