31.8.1 Configuring MEGACO Virtual Gateways
When the MEGACO call control is used, the Media Gateway board may be divided
into up to three Virtual Gateways. Each virtual gateway registers and operates
autonomously with its own controlling MGC(s).
To define Virtual Gateway functionality, up to three Virtual Gateway (VGW)
configuration objects may be created for a specific Media Gateway board, as
described below. Each VGW configuration object contains a list of E1/T1 trunks and a
numeric Virtual Gateway Index that is used to associate MGC IP/FQDN addresses
with the specific Virtual Gateway. By default, for each Media Gateway board, a single
VGW configuration object with index 1, which covers all available trunks for this
Gateway board, is created.
To configure MEGACO Virtual Gateways:
1. Click
to access the Media Gateway status screen.
2. In the Navigation pane, select Call Control
Virtual GWs; the Virtual GWs list
is displayed.
3. Use the
or buttons to add or remove entries.
4. Select a specific row and then in the configuration pane, click Virtual GW
Settings; the Virtual Gateway Settings screen is displayed.
