Overview

Before you install the Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 (MCG 3100) server software, you must perform some preinstallation configuration and verification. To preconfigure the host server and the network enterprise network, perform the following tasks:

•Install the Nortel Linux operating system (OS) on the host server.

•Verify the enterprise network setup—the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers and Domain Name Server (DNS) must be installed and started.

Linux base installation

MCG 3100 uses the same Linux base as Nortel Communication Server (CS) 1000. However, during the Linux base installation for MCG 3100, you make the following platform-specific configuration changes:

•Physical connection

Use only the eth1 physical network interface.
