Configure MGU Interfaces by Command

The interfaces of the MGU (both MGU board and MX-ONE Media Server) can also be configured by MDSH commands set directly (used in the examples below). To configure the control interface use the media_gateway_config command. To configure the media interface use the media_gateway_interface command.

Example 1:

Configure a MGU-based media gateway for Server 2 as media gateway B. Redundancy is not used. Connect LAN0 interface of the MGU to the network (MGUs internal switch interfaces eth0 is used for control and eth2 is used for media).
Figure 1. Example 1

example# media_gateway_config -i -m 2B --mgw-type mgu --cidr 192.168.5.30/25 --default-gateway 192.168.5.1 --symbolic-name Stockholm

example#media_gateway_interface -i -m 2B --cidr 192.168.5.31/25 --default-gateway 192.168.5.1

Example 2:

Configure a MGU-based media gateway for Server 2 as media gateway B. Link failover redundancy is used. Interface LAN0 and LAN1 should be connected to the same switched network, but to different physical switched to achieve redundancy (MGUs internal switch interfaces eth0 is used for control and eth2 is used for media).

Link failover functionality will be activated when both LAN0 and LAN1 interfaces are connected to active network switch port.
