Configuring a Newly Inserted Media Gateway board

To configure a newly inserted Media Gateway board, take these 10
steps with the MIB elements located under the following path:
.\tgConfig\tgModule\tgSlotTable\tgSlotEntry
1. Define a new board in one of the chassis slots by setting tgSlotActionType =
addBoard. As a result:
When working with a MIB browser, a table of the slots is displayed.
Select the appropriate specific slot number.
2. Verify the performed operation by reading tgSlotBoardType.
3. In the MIB elements located in the following path:
..\tgConfig\tgModule\tgTPBoardTable\tgTPBoardEntry
Set the first MAC address of the board by setting tgTPBoardMACAddr1 = first MAC
address of the configured board (the MAC address of module that is connected to trunks 9-
16). Refer to Section A.1 on page 139 for details on ascertaining the MAC address of the
Media Gateway board.
Note:
4. Set the second MAC address of the board by setting tgTPBoardMACAddr2 =
second MAC address of the configured board
5. Set the first IP address of the board by setting tgTPBoardIPAddr1 = first IP address
of the configured board.
6. Set the second IP address of the board by setting tgTPBoardIPAddr2 = second IP
address of the configured board.
7. Set the subnet mask of the board by setting tgTPBoardSubnetMask = subnet mask
address of the configured board.
8. Verify the performed operation by reading back the configured parameters.
9. Unlock the locked section by setting tgBoardActionType = unlock.
