Installing new firmware on other G700 media gateways

Installing G700 firmware in a stack configuration
If the customer has multiple G700 media gateways connected in an IP stack, you can stay
connected to the master G700/P330 and "session" over from the master P330 Stack Processor
to the next G700 in the stack. If you are dialed in remotely, you should have automatically dialed
in to the stack master. For a local installation, you should have plugged your laptop into the
stack master P330, which you can identify by the LED panel on the upper left of each G700 or
P330 device in the stack.
The LEDs signal as follows:
On the G700 Media Gateway: a lit MSTR LED indicates that this unit is the stack master.
On the P330 device: a lit SYS LED indicates that this unit is the stack master.
The G700 and P330 at the bottom of the stack is module number 1, the next module up is
number 2,. and so on. However, the stack master can be any module in the stack, depending on
the actual model, the vintage firmware it runs, and whether the S8300 is inserted into it.
Note:
You do not need to configure the other P330 processors in the stack. These will
Note:
use the IP address and IP route of the master stack processor. However, you will
need to check firmware on all devices of the other G700s in the stack, including
the media gateways themselves, and update the firmware as required.
You may also use the "session stack" command to access other standalone P330
processors in the stack (those that are not part of a G700 unit).
To "session" over to another G700/P330 in a stack
1. At the MG-001-1(configure)# prompt, type session stack
The P330-1(configure)# prompt appears.
2. At the P330-1(configure)# prompt, type session <mod_num> mgp
where <mod_num> is the next P330 processor in the stack.
If you are currently logged in to the master stack processor, <mod_num> would be 2, for
the second G700/P330 processor in the stack.
