clear mgc list
set mgc list <ip_address> [,<ip_address> [,<ip_address> [,<ip_address>]]]
where, the first <ip_address> is the IP address of the primary controller for this G700. If the
primary controller is an S8700, this is the IP address of a C-LAN board that is connected to a pair
of duplicated S8700s. If the Primary controller is an S8300, this is the IP address of the S8300.
The next three <ip_address> parameters are optional IP addresses of up to three alternate
controllers. Each of the three optional controllers can be an S8700 duplicated pair or an S8300
configured as an LSP, depending on the G700’s primary controller.
CAUTION:
If you need to change the mgc list, you must run clear mgc list before running set mgc
list again.
The following table describes the possible optional controllers for an S8300 and S8700 primary
controller:
For an S8500 or S8700 primary controller, the last three IP addresses in the list can be either the
addresses of C-LANS (which are connected to the same S8500 or pair of S8700s that act as
primary controllers) or addresses of LSPs. If you enter a combination of both, you must list C-
LANs first and the LSPs last, after the C-LANs.
2Type reset mgp at the MG-???-n(configure)# prompt to reset the G700 Media Gateway
processor.
A system prompt asks to confirm the reset.
3Select Yes at the dialog box that asks if you want to continue.
The G700 Media Gateway processor will reset. The LEDs on the G700 Media Gateway and the
Media Modules will flash. These elements will each conduct a series of self-tests. When the LEDs
on the Media Modules are extinguished and the active status LEDs on the G700 Media Gateway
are on, the reset is complete.
The system ultimately returns you to the P330-1 (configure) prompt.
At the P330-1(configure)# prompt, type session mgp.
At the MG-001-1(super)# prompt, type configure to change to the configuration mode.
NOTE:
Because the G700 media gateway has registered with its primary controller, the prompt
name has changed; for example, to MG-001-1.
Primary Server Controller IP Addresses
S8300 First: IP address of the S8300 primary controller.
Next three: one, two, or three IP addresses of S8300s configured as
LSPs.
S8500 or S8700
First: IP address of the C-LAN for the S8500 or S8700 primary
controller.
Next three: one, two, or three IP addresses of alternate C-LANs and/or
LSPs.
