Installing a Primary and Secondary Pair of VCX Connect Servers 21
Refer to the instructions in the appropriate media gateway manual for
the media gateways that are included in your configuration. See
“Documentation Resources” on page 8 to identify the correct manual.
For a VCX Connect 200 server, the media gateways are separate units
and have this default IP address: 10.10.10.10
1 Connect the media gateway Ethernet port to the same hub or switch to
which the PC is connected.
CAUTION: Verify that the PC and the media gateway are not connected
to any network segment.
If you prefer, you can use a cross-over Ethernet cable to directly connect
the PC to the media gateway.
2 Reconfigure the PC with these network parameters:
■
Set the IP address of the PC to 10.10.10.20.
■
Set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0
You do not need to configure a default gateway IP address.
3 On the PC, open a browser and enter the media gateway IP address in
the address text box.
4 Reconfigure the network parameters of the media gateway to conform
to the network segment on which it will reside.
Refer to the instructions in the appropriate media gateway manual for
the media gateways that are included in your configuration. See
“Documentation Resources” on page 8 to identify the correct manual.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 for any additional media gateways in your VCX
Connect system.
Moving the VCX Connect Servers and Media Gateways
1 Shut down the secondary server and disconnect all cabling. To shut down
the server, log in to the
root account and enter this command:
shutdown now
2 If you are using a VCX Connect 200 server, shut down the separate media
gateways by removing the power cord from the chassis, move the media
gateways to their final location, and reconnect them to power and to the
network segment on which they will operate.
