First Entry IP Configuration

MCU Definition

During the hardware installation process, a network IP address should have
been assigned to the MCU. The IP address must be properly assigned to the
MCU in order for the MGC Manager to connect to it. For more information
about First IP Configuration on the MCU, refer the MGC Hardware and
Installation Guide, Chapter 2.
Another method to connect to the MCU and modify its IP configuration is via
a telephone line with a modem or directly via a serial connection. For details,
see "Appendix B: PPP Setup".
The MGC Manager can connect to several MGC unit simultaneously. The
first time you run the MGC Manager application, or when a new MCU is
added to your configuration, you must define the MCU's connection
parameters to enable the communication between the MGC Manager and the
MGC unit.
The MGC unit must be installed and its IP address properly configured before
defining its connection parameters in the MGC Manager application.
To define an MGC unit in the MGC Manager application:
When opening the MGC Manager application, the Reservations in AccordDB
window opens automatically. Click on any area of the MGC Manager window to
move the Reservations in Accord DB window to the back.
1. In the MGC Manager Browser pane, right-click the MCUs Network icon,
and then click New MCU.
