Preparing for a remote configuration of the G250

The G250 can be remotely configured through the network or via a modem.

Preparing for a remote configuration of the G250 through the network

If you need to prepare the G250 for remote configuration through the network, run the
installation script for newly installed gateways. The installation script configures the gateway's
basic network parameters required to achieve network connectivity: VLAN number, IP address,
IP netmask, IP address for the default router, MGCs list, and hostname. A remote technician
can then further configure the gateway as required.
Run the installation script after installing the G250 and connecting to power, as described in
previous chapters.
1. The installation script is supported from branch gateway firmware version 29.22.x.
to configure the following information for the media gateway:
