After accessing the Embedded Web Server (refer to Section 3.3 on page 15) the MGCP /
MEGACO ‘Quick Setup’ screen is displayed, shown in Figure 3-3.

¾ To configure basic MGCP / MEGACO parameters, take these 15 steps:
1. If your network features a DNS server, in the fields ‘DNS Primary Server IP’ and ‘DNS
Secondary Server IP’, enter the IP address of the primary and secondary DNS servers
(clarify with your network administrator). Note that the DNS server option is supported for
MEGACO but not for MGCP.
2. If your network features a DHCP server, in the ‘Enable DHCP’ field, select ‘Enable’; the ‘IP
Address’, ‘Subnet Musk’ and ‘Default Gateway IP Address’ fields are disabled. When the
gateway is configured to use DHCP, it attempts to contact the DHCP server to obtain the
networking parameters (e.g., IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and
primary/secondary DNS server).
3. Under the section ‘Trunk Configuration’, select the ‘Protocol Type’ you use. Note that the
Trunk Configuration parameters are global, and apply to all trunks. To configure different
parameters per trunk, refer to Section 3.5 on page 23.
4. In the ‘Framing Method’ field, select the ‘Framing Method’ you use (for E1 trunks, always set
the Framing Method to ‘Extended Super Frame’).
5. In the ‘Clock Master’ field, select the trunk clock source from the drop-down list. Choose
either ‘Recovered’ (the clock is recovered from the trunk; default) or ‘Generated’ (the trunk’s
clock source is provided by the internal TDM bus clock source, according to the parameter
‘TDM Bus Clock Source’). For detailed information on the parameter ‘TDM Bus Clock
Source’, refer to the Mediant 1000 MGCP/MEGACO User’s Manual.
6. In the ‘Line Code’ field, select the Line Code. Use ‘B8ZS’ (bipolar 8-zero substitution) or
‘AMI’ (alternate mark inversion) for T1 spans, and ‘HDB3’ (high-density bipolar 3) or ‘AMI’ for
E1 spans.
