Corporate Lan Direct Connection; S8300 Media Server Services Interface Direct Connection - Avaya G700 Welcome Manual

Corporate LAN direct connection

To connect a laptop directly to a G700 Media Gateway Ethernet interface:
1 . Your laptop must be assigned an IP address compatible with this subnet of the corporate LAN.
The IP address may be assigned statically or through a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) service on the customer's LAN.
2 . Connect an Ethernet cable to one of the two 10/100Base-T Ethernet interfaces in the bottom
center of the G700 Media Gateway chassis. Either port EXT1 or EXT2 can be used if available.
If both corporate LAN Ethernet interfaces on the G700 Media Gateway are in use, and if the G700
Media Gateway is in a stacked configuration, another Ethernet interface can be used if available
on one of the stack devices.
3 . Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network interface card
(NIC) on your laptop. (Do not use a crossover Ethernet cable for this connection.)
4 . Log in to the desired administration tool.
