Installation & Operation Manual A. Examples of IP Network Connectivity Configuration
A Examples of IP Network Connectivity
Configuration
This section provides examples of how to configure IP Network Connectivity on the
Mediant 8000. The CLI commands are used to perform the network configuration, thus
enabling such configuration even via a RS-232 serial console (e.g. when the EMS
server is not available or there is no connectivity with it).
The following configuration scenarios are described:
One Subnet is used for all IP traffic – management (OAM), call control and
media; VLAN tagging is not used
Three Subnets are used – for management (OAM), call control and media traffic;
subnets are separated via the use of tagged VLANs and a single physical
interface is used for connecting to the IP network.
See 'Connecting the Media Gateway to the IP Network' on page 178 , for a generic
description of the Mediant 8000 IP Network Connectivity.
A.1 Example 1: One Subnet, One Physical Interface,
No VLAN Tags
This example describes the most common (default) configuration of the IP networking
subsystem, where a single IP network (without subnet separation) is used for
transmitting all types of IP traffic – management (OAM), call control and media. This
configuration is deployed by many customers due to its simplicity and high
interoperability.
