Preparing for configuration
Before the software configuration for the new WAN line takes place, note the slot and port number on the
Avaya G350 Media Gateway to which the WAN line connects. In addition, you may need to connect a
modem or a laptop computer to the Avaya G350 Media Gateway. See
Preparing for configuration
on
page 17.
Be ready to assist the technician that is performing or supervising the configuration during the
configuration.
Testing
After installation of the WAN line is complete, test the link by verifying that the SIG LED for the port to
which the link connects is lit. It is also recommended that you request the technician who performed the
configuration to ping the IP address of a device using the WAN line and to perform a trace route test in
order to test connectivity with the network and outside the network.
