Use add media-gateway on the primary server to add a gateway to the system.
add media-gateway [ x | next ]
Number of the assigned gateway.
Next available number.
Field |
Description |
|---|---|
Controller IPv4 Address / Controller IPv6 Address |
(Display only) Blank until the gateway registers for the first time. The Controller IP Address field supports the IPv6 addresses. This is the IP address that the gateway is registered to on the server.
|
Enable CF? |
Appears only for G450 and G430 gateways and only when the announcement module is administered in the V9 slot. The Enable CF? field indicates if you have enabled a compact flash to backup or restore the announcement files. The valid responses are y and n, where n is the default response. Enter y to enable a Compact Flash. If you are using a G450 Release 1.x, where the compact flash is not a valid option, the Enable CF? field is display-only and the value is set to n. |
Encrypt Link |
The valid values are y and n. Enter y to encrypt the H.248 link on the gateway. y is the default value when the gateway is added. |
FW Version / HW Vintage |
(Display only) Current firmware and hardware versions on the gateway. |
IP Address |
(Display only) The IP address of the gateway. Blank until the gateway registers for the first time. Once the gateway has registered, that IP address always appears, even if the gateway becomes unregistered until a gateway with a different IP address is validly registered with the same administered identifier. The populated IP address is persistent over reboots. |
Link encryption type |
Note:
This field complies with the Unified Capabilities Requirements (UCR) 2008 Change 3 requirements and is approved by Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC). The following are the valid entries for this field:
|
Location |
1 through 250 — (Depending on your server configuration, see Avaya Aura® Communication Manager System Capacities Table.) Refers to a time-zone offset, day-light savings rule, and number plan area code. See Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation, for the other ways, and for a list of features that use location.
Warning:
If you change the Location field while the gateway is registered, you must reboot the gateway to ensure optimal audio quality. Blank — The location is obtained from the gateway that the endpoint registered with. By default, the value is blank. |
MAC Address |
(Display only) MAC address of the gateway. Blank until the gateway registers for the first time. Once the gateway has registered, that MAC Address appears, even if the gateway becomes unregistered, until a gateway with a different MAC Address is validly registered with the same administered identifier. |
Max Survivable IP Ext. |
Appears when there is a Type such as G450 and J2320. Limits the number of simultaneous endpoint registrations for the gateway in SLS mode. VoIP resources in SLS can handle a limited number of simultaneous endpoint registrations. Administering this field above the default value can result in system performance problems. |
MGP IPv4 Address / MGP IPv6 Address |
This is the IP address of the H.248 branch gateway platform. The platform could reside in a network component that has its IP address. The field supports the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. |
Module Type |
Type of Avaya Media Module in the slot. Refer to the administration guide of the gateway added for valid media modules and slot configuration. If an administered Media Module conflicts with the inserted Media Module, a pound sign (#) appears to the left of the Module Type field on the Media Gateway screen. |
Mutual Authentication |
Note:
This field complies with the Unified Capabilities Requirements (UCR) 2008 Change 3 requirements and is approved by Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC). If the Link Encryption Type field is set to none or ptls-only, the Mutual Authentication field is unavailable. The Mutual Authentication field is optional. If Communication Manager is configured to operate in the FIPS mode, the Mutual Authentication field determines whether the gateway must send the Identity Certificate to Communication Manager as part of the TLS protocol certificate sharing. When the value of this field is set to required, during the TLS handshake Communication Manager requires the gateway to authenticate using a digital certificate. The Communication Manager server as the TLS host and the gateway as the TLS client have to exchange valid Identity certificates. When the value of this field is set to optional, Communication Manager accepts a TLS registration without the gateway Identity certificate. The default value of this field is optional. |
Name |
Name assigned to the gateway. |
Name (Controller) |
Name assigned to the controller. |
Network Region |
Network Region assigned to the gateway. Used by the primary server to allocate resources from the nearest gateway. The number of characters is dependent upon the type of primary server. |
Number |
(Display only) Number assigned to the gateway. |
Recovery Rule |
Number of the auto-fallback recovery rule that applies to this gateway. The recovery rule is set on the system-parameters mg-recovery-rule screen. none — no automatic fallback registrations are accepted. For more information about recovery rules, see Administering Avaya Aura® Communication Manager and Administering Network Connectivity on Avaya Aura® Communication Manager. |
Registered? |
(Display only)
|
Gateway Mode |
The Gateway Mode field is a display-only field.
|
Serial No |
Used for the controller to identify the gateway. |
Site Data |
General site information. |
Slot |
(Display only) Slot number for the identified Media Module. Slots V8–V9, for virtual media modules, are listed after Slots V1–V4. |
Type |
Type of gateway. Use the help key to see the list of valid gateway types. |
Use for IP Sync |
Appears when the Synchronization over IP field is enabled. Indicates whether or not the G430 and G450 branch gateways are exempted from IP sync. By default, this field is enabled. |
