8000 Software
Note: If you performed Mediant 8000 software installation as described in 'Installing
Mediant 8000 Software' on page 129, skip this chapter and proceed directly to the
chapter 'Starting Mediant 8000 Software' on page 153.
The basic configuration of the Mediant 8000 software re-defines some high-level
configuration parameters (e.g. Global IP Address) and ensures that the Mediant 8000
software’s configuration fully matches the current network configuration of the SC
boards.
The basic configuration of the Mediant 8000 software is typically carried out when the
Mediant 8000 is moved to the new IP environment. Common maintenance and
configuration tasks are typically performed via more feature-rich management
interfaces, i.e EMS GUI or CLI commands.
The basic configuration of the Mediant 8000 software must be performed on both SC
boards, located in Slots 1 and 2 correspondingly, and consists of the following steps:
Performing basic configuration of the Mediant 8000 software on the SC board to
operate as the Active board (in Slot 1).
Performing basic configuration of the Mediant 8000 software on the SC board to
operate as the Standby board (in Slot 2).
