Set up the Controller List for the G700 Media
Gateway
NOTE:
The Avaya Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW) performs this task automatically.
To complete the configuration of the G700 Media Gateway, you need to administer a list of primary and
alternate controllers. This list begins with the IP address of the primary controller. In the event that the
G700 Media Gateway loses contact with its primary controller, it will seek to re-register with the primary
controller first, then with the other controllers on this list. The other controllers are S8500 or S8700
Media Servers that can act as the primary controller, or S8300 Media Servers configured as Local
Survivable Processors (LSPs).
Up to four IP addresses separated by commas can be entered to form the controller list.

At the MG-???-n(configure)# prompt, type the following commands to designate the primary,
secondary, and LSP controllers for this G700:
clear mgc list
set mgc list <ip_address> [,<ip_address> [,<ip_address> [,<ip_address>]]]
where, the first <ip_address> is the IP address of the primary controller for this G700. If the
primary controller is an S8700, this is the IP address of a C-LAN board that is connected to a pair
of duplicated S8700s. If the Primary controller is an S8300, this is the IP address of the S8300.
The next three <ip_address> parameters are optional IP addresses of up to three alternate
controllers. Each of the three optional controllers can be an S8700 duplicated pair or an S8300
configured as an LSP, depending on the G700's primary controller.
CAUTION:
If you need to change the mgc list, you must run
