When adding new devices to the G350, consult your project manager for topology requirements
for specific ports to be connected to specific devices.

Adding a media module

Various media modules including voice modules or WAN and LAN modules can be added to the
Avaya G350 Media Gateway.

Adding voice modules

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. Configuration is only
necessary when you add telephones, fax machines, and trunks to the new module. See
a telephone on page 87 and
Some configuration of the Avaya Communication Manager is necessary when you install an
MM710, MM720, or MM722 media module. See Administrator's Guide for Avaya
Communication Manager, 555-233-506. Also, for an MM710 or MM722, it is usually advisable to
set the media module as the synchronization source of the G350. For information about setting
the synchronization source of the G350, see Maintenance for the Avaya G250 and Avaya G350
Media Gateways, 03-300438.

Adding WAN and LAN modules

You can hot-insert WAN and LAN modules. This means you can add a WAN or LAN module to
the Avaya G350 Media Gateway while the system is running, but the G350 resets when you add
the module. However, hot insertion is not recommended in most cases. Because hot insertion
resets the G350, any translation and other data that is in the running configuration but has not
been saved to the startup configuration will be lost.
