Setting Reset Times - Avaya G250 Administration

To show the current MGC list, use the show mgc list command. This command shows the
IP addresses of the MGCs on the MGC list. On a G250, it also shows whether or not SLS is
enabled.
To remove one or more MGCs from the MGC list, use the clear mgc list command. Type
the IP address of the MGC you want to remove as an argument to remove that MGC. You can
remove more than one MGC with one command by typing the IP addresses of all the MGCs you
want to remove, separated by commas. To remove all the MGCs on the list, use the clear
mgc list command with no arguments.To change the G250/G350's MGC list:
1. Use the clear mgc list command with no arguments to clear the MGC list.
2. Use the set mgc list command with a different set of IP addresses.
Note:
If you use the set mgc list command without first clearing the MGC list, the
Note:
G250/G350 simply adds the new MGCs to the end of the MGC list.
On a G250 with SLS enabled, the MGC list includes the SLS module as an additional entry at
the end of the MGC list. For details about SLS, see
Survivability (SLS) on the G250

Setting reset times

If the connection between the G250/G350 and its registered MGC is lost, the G250/G350
attempts to recover the connection. Use the set reset-times primary-search
command and the set reset-times total-search command to set the time-out for the
G250/G350's search for the primary MGC and the other MGC's on its MGC list, respectively.
Use the set reset-times transition-point command to configure the point at which
the primary MGCs in the list end and the LSPs begin. For example, if there are three IP
addresses in the MGC list and the third address is the LSP, the transition point should be 2.
The default time for the primary search is 1 minute. The default time for the total search is 30
minutes. The default transition point is 1.
For example:
G350-001(super)# set reset-times primary-search 20
Done!
G350-001(super)# set reset-times total-search 40
Done!
G350-001(super)# set reset-times transition-point 1
Done!
In this example, in the event of a loss of connection with the registered MGC, the G250/G350
searches for the primary MGC on its MGC list for 20 minutes. If the G250/G350 does not
establish a connection with the primary MGC within this time, it searches for the other MGCs on
the list for a total of 40 minutes.
