Figure 1 Top-side view and component
1.2 Pre-Installation Issues
Before installing the Media Gateway in your network you must be aware of the following safety
and installation considerations.
Warning：Damage of equipment or personal injure

Starting the installation without knowing the Safety Guidelines can result
in damage of equipment or personal injure.
Before beginning the installation procedure, you must read the Safety
Notifications in the document: Media Gateway Safety Guidelines and
Agency Approvals". This document provides mandatory pre-installation
and installation information.
Do not continue until you have read the entire Safety Notification.
1.2.1 Safety Precaution
The Media Gateway has a solid chassis and sturdy modules to ensure a high degree of durability.
Even so, you must take care when unpacking and installing the Media Gateway system. Rough
handling can damage some of the internal components.
The electronic components in the Media Gateway system can be damaged by Electro-Static
Discharge (ESD). ESD occurs when you do not properly ground yourself before touching
electronic components. Because some components carry minute electrical currents, they can
become damaged by the amount of current conducted by the human body.
To guard against ESD, attach an ESD wrist strap with a 1 MΩ resistor to the ground post (or plug,
also known as the 'banana jack') on the lower left of the Media Gateway front panel.
Danger: Electro Static Discharge
If you do not wear an Electro-Static-Discharge (ESD) protective wrist

strap this can result in serious personal injure and/or damage to the
chassis.
Wear an ESD protective wrist strap having a 1 MΩ resistor when you
install the chassis to the facility power, and every time you perform a
hot-swap. The banana jack is not insulated, so make sure to wear the ESD
strap, even with the grounding post secured on the chassis. Insert the wrist
strap into the banana jack on the front of the chassis at the lower left
corner. The protective strap is not included with the chassis. You can
purchase one at a local electronics supply store. See figure 2 to see where
to insert the strap.
Figure 2 ESD Wriststrap Insertion into the Chassis
1.2.2 Safe Work Areas
If you need to remove or hot swap the Media Gateway hardware, follow these precautions:
Make sure the work area is clean and free of moisture
Use an ESD safe work area
Always wear an anti-static wrist strap with a 1 MΩ resistor to protect against ESD or
personal injure
Do not use screwdrivers or other sharp or pointed instruments when removing or installing
hardware, unless otherwise instructed
Lay modules flat when they are not in the Media Gateway, or store them in a static-free bag
Make sure that the Media Gateways have a vertical offset if they are being installed in
side-by-side racks.
By installing the Media Gateways with the recommended vertical offset, you ensure that sufficient
ambient air exists to cool the warm components. The shelf fans then exhaust the warm air. The
offset also ensures that intake fans of another Media Gateway do not draw in the warm and exhaust
air from shelves in a neighboring rack.
1.3 Installing the Media Gateway Chassis
The Media Gateway has been designed for easy installation. You can install the Media gateway in
a standard equipment rack. To facility installation in an equipment rack, the Media gateway is
shipped with mounting brackets.
1.3.1 Pre_Installation Information
This section provides information you need before starting the installation of the gateway.
Warning：Damage of equipment or personal injure

Starting the installation without knowing the Safety Guidelines can result
in damage of equipment or personal injure.
Before beginning the installation procedure, you must read the Safety
Notifications in the document: Media Gateway Safety Guidelines and
Agency Approvals". This document provides mandatory pre-installation
and installation information.
Do not continue until you have read the entire Safety Notification.
Reception Rack
A standard 2200 mm (7 foot) rack supports up to 10 Media Gateway Chassis. A Media Gateway
chassis is compatible with ETSI 300 119_3 (use available ETSI brackets)

much..
1.4.2 Connecting DC Power
At the rear right side of the A7515 Media Gateway (see Figure 4), there is a power cable terminal
block to which two separate external power supplies can be connected (-48VDC power
supply).one Gateway requires approximately 200 Watts.
One power supply is connected to the ‘A’ terminal of the terminal block, and the other power
supply is connected to the ‘B’ terminal of the terminal block. The minus polarity and return cable
terminations are marked on the both the A and B terminals.
When installing power cables at the terminal block, the following checklist is to be used:
1. Ensure the power on and off switch are turned OFF.
2. Ensure that the cables being connected between the external power supplies and the terminal
blocks have at least an 1.5mm2 cross-sectional area.
3. Ensure that the polarity of each cable coming from an external power supply is connected to
the correct polarity at its terminal connector on the terminal block (-48VDC on one connection
and the return cable to the other connection).
4. Ensure that each UNC 10-32 screw used to secure the end of a power cable in its terminal
connector is tightened (it is advisable to use a torque wrench) to slightly less than the
maximum torque of 2.26 Newton-Meters.
Turning the switch ON now applies power to the gateway electrical circuits.
1.4.3 Installing and Removing Fan Trays
Three fan trays are installed at the both side of A7515 Media Gateway. Two fan trays contain three
fans and one fan tray contains one fan. If a fan fails, an alarm is sent by way of the network
management interface.
Installing a Fan Tray
Each fan tray is hold at the side of the rack, which aid proper insertion of the tray. Once a tray has
been properly inserted on its guides by hand and pushed into place with its front panel seated flush
against the chassis, two locking screws should be used to hold it in place.
1.4.4 Installing the Hardware Boards

Preparing System Parameters
Viewing the Media Gateway Configuration for the Megaco protocol
Sample Configuration.
2.1 Understanding the Media Gateway
The Media Gateway works in the data layer, accepting call data from the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN) or an access switch. Simultaneously, the control and signaling data are
sent from PSTN or access switch to the softswitch. The softswitch acts as the Media Gateway
Controller (MGC). It provides the control, signaling and routing functions, so that the entire
bandwidth of the Media Gateway is free to carry voice traffic. Figure 5 illustrates the Media
Gateway in a typical network.
Figure 5 Role of the Media Gateway in a Network
2.2 Understanding Megaco / 7515 Terminology
The softswitch acts as the MGC. The MGC communicates with the Media Gateway using the
H.248/Megaco protocol. The Megaco protocol and terminology used within this chapter are
explained in detail in RFC3015 document and its corrections. Below is a brief description of the
basic Megaco concepts.
Media Gateway A media gateway converts media given in one type of network to the
format required by another type of network.
Physical Termination A physical termination represents a physical entity and has a

semi-permanent existence. A Time Division Multiplex (TDM) channel
configured in a gateway is an example of a physical termination.
Ephemeral Termination An ephemeral termination is a temporary entity created by means of an

Add command sent from the MGC to the media gateway.
Context A context is an association between two or more terminations.

Associating a TDM channel from PSTN with a Real-time Transport
Protocol (RTP) packet stream creates a context.
Figure 6 illustrates these basic concepts.

This section discusses the parameters that you must prepare to enable traffic flow through the
Media Gateway. For a more detailed and complete description of parameter settings for the Media
Gateway, refer to the Alcatel A7515 Media Gateway Operations and Maintenance Manual.
2.4.1 Media Gateway User Interface
The Media Gateway user interface consists of the Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is
syntax driven. You can issue all the commands and parameters for runtime operation from the
Media Gateway CLI.
The Media Gateway supports netman or diag access which is analogous to Super User authority.
Netman or diag access provides ability to display, set and change parameters. For a more detailed
and complete description of the CLI, refer to the Alcatel A7515 Media Gateway Operations and
Maintenance Manual.
2.4.2 Installing E1 / DS1 Links
E1 DS1links carry 30 DS0 channels, and they are installed with DS1 commands. This procedure
explains the minimum steps to install an E1 link. View the modules in your Media Gateway by
issuing the following command:

Each Media Gateway requires one IP address to communicate with MGC along the control path.
Following a message exchange along the control path between the Media Gateway and the MGC,
communication between two Media Gateways occurs along the voice path. Each Media Gateway
also requires one IP address to send and receive data along the voice path. Figure 8 illustrates the
use of IP addresses of the voice and control paths.
Figure 8 IP Addresses Used by the Media Gateway
The following procedure describes how to provide IP interfaces on the Media Gateway.
Note : 1. CTRL port can connect to 10/100M switch, 10M hub, 100Mhub, 10/100M switch is
recommended. DATA port can only connect to 10/100M switch, Full duplex, autonegotiation.
2. CTRL and DATA port ipaddress can not be in same subnet, it can be in defferent subnets, in
defferent VLANs, or one public ip address for voice path and one private ip address for signal
path.
Procedure
Perform the following steps to provide the IP interfaces for the control and voice path.
1. Create an IP interface on an Ethernet port by issuing the following command

create ip if {<port> | Rpl | Port-Group | loopback} <ipaddress> <mask>
2. Enable the IP interface by issuing the following command:

define ip if state <ipaddress> enable
3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 until you have provided the Ethernet interfaces you will need for
your network configuration.
Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 until you have provided the Ethernet interfaces you will need for your
network configuration. At least two IP is needed, one is for OAM and MGC and another is for
voice data. The OAM port is en.1.1(2).1 and the voice port is en.1.1(2).2
Example
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=47:diag:main# create ip if en.1.1.1 10.10.0.11
255.255.255.0
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=48:diag:main# define ip if state 10.10.0.11 enable
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=49:diag:main# create ip if en.1.1.2 10.11.12.21

255.255.255.0
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=50:diag:main# define ip if state 10.11.12.21 enable
To create an IP interface on the second Ethernet port, specify port number en.1.1.2. Note that the
increment takes place in the port position of the address.
Viewing IP Interface
To view the IP interface, issue the following command:

view ip if
Example

2.4.4 Provisioning Media Gateway Parameters
The Media Gateway Parameters enable communication between the Media Gateway and the MGC
and prepare the Media Gateway to send packets along the voice path.
The following procedure describes how to provision the Media Gateway and MGC parameters.
Procedure
Perform the following steps to prepare the Media Gateway and MGC parameters.
Note Before setting the Media Gateway and MGC parameters, you should disable the
Media Gateway at first.
1. Define the IP address of the Media Gateway by issuing the following command:
define mgw mg ipaddress <ip-address>
Enter the IP address the Media Gateway used to communicate with the MGC.
2. Define the IP address of the Media Gateway used to pass traffic along the voice path by
define ip voice address <ip-address>
3. Set the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) / Transport Control Protocol (TCP) port of the MGC
by issuing the following command (the default port value is 5000):
define mgw mg port <udp/tcp-port>
4. Set the at most once timer of the Media Gateway by issuing the following command (the
default value for Megaco is 30 seconds):
define mgw mg atmost-timer <msec>
5. Set the initial response timer of the Media Gateway by issuing the following command (the
default value for Megaco is 5 seconds):
define mgw mg init-timer <msec>
6. Set the provisional response timer of the Media Gateway by issuing the following command
(the default value for Megaco is 30 seconds):
define mgw mg prov-timer <msec>
7. Set the IP address of the primary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc ipaddress primary <ip-address>
8. Optionally, set the IP address of the secondary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc ipaddress secondary <ip-address>
9. Set the UDP/TCP port of the primary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc port primary < udp/tcp-port >
Note The default port value for Megaco is 2944.
10. Optionally, set the UDP/TCP port of the secondary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc port secondary < udp/tcp-port >
11. Optionally, set the UDP/TCP port of the secondary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mg mid <mid-string>
12. You can change the parameters on the primary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc mid primary <mid-string>
13. You can change the parameters on the secondary MGC by issuing the following command:
define mgw mgc mid secondary <mid-string>
14. Enable the Media Gateway by issuing the following command:

define mgw mg state <enable | disable>
Example
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=47:diag:main# define mgw mg state disable
My-Chassis:ACT-FSB:1.1(r0)>=48:diag:main# define mgw mg ipaddress 10.10.0.11

2.4.10 One Step Software System Upgrade
A7515 supports the online software upgrade, i.e., user can upgrade system software when
system is running, and the new version of software will be used when the board reboots. All the
software of system will be saved on the flash disk after them upgraded.
The one-step software upgrade procedure automates the upgrade process by exploding the new
PAK file and extracting the new runtime and BPF text file. The automatic upgrade halts if it
encounters an error (for example, if the PAK file does not exist). If the upgrade does halt, you will
need to determine what caused the error.Check the system Syslog messages for any information
about error conditions.
UI command:
Upgrade system {non-hitless| hitless} <pak-file>
Arguments Non-hitless is for un-redundancy upgrade, hitless is for redundancy upgrade.

<pak-file> is the name of the PAK file. It can be on the remote server like
“172.24.200.21:newpak.pak” or on the local flash disk like “newpak.pak”.
You can copy file from a TFTP server to A7515 flash by issuing the following command
tftp get <rmt-file> [<lcl-file>]
You can copy file from A7515 flash to TFTP server
tftp put <rmt-file> [<lcl-file>]
Arguments <rmt-file>: file name on a remote server

<lcl-file>: file name on the Media Gateway
