Installing the G700 Media Gateway
A G700 Media Gateway or a G700 Media Gateway with an Avaya S8300 Media Server configured as a
Local Spare Processor (LSP) may be added to either a Avaya S8700 Multi-Connect or IP Connect
configuration or Avaya S8500 Media Server. To add a G700 Media Gateway, you must have a TN799DP
Control-LAN (C-LAN) circuit pack installed in the MCC1, SCC1, CMC1, G650, or G600 Media
Gateway. The G700 Media Gateway is an endpoint on the C-LAN circuit pack. Figure 40, Sample
configuration showing the G700 Media Gateway connecting to the Avaya S8700 Media Server, on page
130 shows a sample configuration.
The general process for adding a G700 Media Gateway to an existing G650 Media Gateway follows:
• Install the G650 Media Gateway.
• Install and configure the G700 Media Gateway.
• Add the media gateway to the media server translations.
• Install a TN799DP (V5 or higher) C-LAN circuit pack.
• Administer the C-LAN circuit pack by:
• Adding the node names and IP addresses for each G700 Media Gateway being added on
the IP Node Names screen.
• Filling in the required fields on the IP Interfaces screen.
• Enabling the Ethernet port.

document Adding Hardware to Media Gateways section, TN799DP Control-LAN (C-LAN)
circuit pack.
