domain-name (call agent name): In the range from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters.
ip-addr (IP address which corresponds to domain-name): IP address, which must be in the following
format—nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn.
addr-order (IP address resolution preference order): In the range from 1 (highest) to 8.
Step 4 Type the addmgcgrpentry command, mgc-group, mgc-num, and mgc-priority argument values, and
press Enter to add the MGC to a redundancy group. Specify the arguments with the following values:

mgc-num (protocol number): In the range from 1 to 8.
mgc-priority (preference of the MGC within the group): In the range from 1 ( highe st) t o 8 .

2 = Disable
|mgc-priority| (call agent priority): In the range from 0 to 8 (default = 1)
Step 6 Type the addmgcgrpprotocol command, mgc-group and protocol-num argument values, and press
Enter to associate a call agent redundancy group with a gateway control protocol. Specify the arguments
with the following values:
mgc-group (call agent redundancy group): In the range from 1 to 8.
protocol-num (gateway control protocol): In the range from 1 to 8.
Step 7 Repeat Step 1 through Step 6 for each call agent that you need to make active in your application.
You have completed setting up call agents and media gateway control protocols. Proceed to the
“Configuring Gateway Control Protocols” section on page 4-47, if necessary.
