(Multitech MultiModemZBA MT5634ZBA-V-V92) or a USB modem (see USB modems
supported by the G450 on page 154 for a list of the USB modems supported by the G450).

Obtaining the G450 serial number


Look for the serial number sticker on the back of the G450 chassis. If the unit is delivered
directly to the customer and you will not have phone or LAN line access from the customer site
to access the http://rfa.avaya.com website, this task will require a preliminary trip to the
customer site.

Obtaining RFA access


You need to obtain a personal Single Sign-On (SSO) for Remote Feature Activation (RFA)
website authentication login before going to the site for installation. You must complete the
authentication process before you can be assigned an SSO authentication login.
As a first-time user:
● Business Partners should point their browsers to the Business Partner portal option
sales_market, services-voice, training tools and procedures to select RFA
● Associates should point their browsers to the Avaya Associate portal
● Contractors should point their browsers to Avaya.com
● Alternatively go directly to http://rfa.avaya.com.
From that point, log into SSO and complete the process to obtain your personal login.

Before going to site

Checking license file and Avaya Aura Communication


Manager versions for a Local Survivable Processor (LSP)
If you are installing an S8300 as a Local Survivable Processor (LSP), the license file for the
S8300 must have a feature set that is equal to or greater than that of the server that acts as
primary controller (an S8300, S8400, S87xx, or S85xx). This is necessary so that if control
passes to the LSP, it can allow the same level of call processing as that of the primary controller.
Additionally, the LSP must have a version of Avaya Aura Communication Manager (CM) that is
identical to that of the primary controller.
The license file requirements of the LSP should be identified in your planning documentation.

Downloading CM license and authentication files to your laptop


If you are installing a G450 with an S8300 Server as a primary controller, you need license and
authentication files for the Communication Manager.
1. Use Windows File Explorer or another file management program to create a directory on
your laptop for storing license and authentication files (for example, C:\licenses).
2. Access the Internet from your laptop and go to http://rfa.avaya.com.
3. Login using your SSO login and password. The AFS and RFA information home page
appears.
4. Start the RFA application from the RFA information page. To create and download the
license file and authentication file, follow the instructions outlined in the Avaya Remote
Feature Activation (RFA) User Guide, 03-300149.
5. Use the download or email capabilities of the RFA website to download the license and
authentication files to your laptop.
Once the Communication Manager license and authentication files are downloaded to your PC,
you can use the Avaya Installation Wizard to install them (see Running the Avaya Installation
Wizard (Avaya IW) on page 155. You can also use the Maintenance Web Interface to install the
Communication Manager license and authentication files.

grounding conductor from an approved ground, do not install the G450 until a
licensed electrician is present to install a Supplementary Ground Conductor.

Ground conductor
A Supplementary Ground Conductor is provided with the equipment, and is constructed of
10 AWG (4.0 mm2) wire, with an insulated ring terminal crimped to one end that is suitable for
the #8 (M4) stud/screw on the rear of the G450 chassis.
The customer will need to provide a means of connecting this Supplementary Ground
Conductor to an approved ground according to Article 250 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC).

Ground block
A ground block is available for use when multiple G450 Media Gateways are being installed.
The ground block, intended for rack mounting, has ten terminals available for terminating
Supplementary Ground Conductors. Up to ten G450 Media Gateways can be grounded at the
block installed close to the equipment (on a rack) and then a single ground conductor can be
routed from the same block to an approved ground. If the ground block is to be used, you must
supply it and have it installed by an electrician.

! DANGER:
DANGER: Failure to install both grounds will void the Product Safety certifications (UL and
the CE Mark) on the product, as well as allow a hazard to be present that could
result in death or severe personal injury.

Restricted Access Location


In Finland, Norway, and Sweden, the G450 Media Gateway must be installed in a Restricted
Access Location, due to unreliable earthing concerns. A Restricted Access Location is defined
as access that can be gained by only Service Personnel or Customers who have been
instructed about the reasons for the restricted access and any safety precautions that must be
taken. In these cases, access to the G450 is gained by the use of a tool (such as a lock and
key) or other means of security.

Installing the Avaya G450 Media Gateway

! WARNING:
WARNING: For installations in Finland, Norway, and Sweden, the Avaya G450 Media
Gateway relies on two ground connections (mains plug with an earth contact, and
a Supplementary Ground Conductor).

Approved grounds
An approved ground is the closest acceptable medium for grounding the building entrance
protector, entrance cable shield, or a single-point ground of electronic telephony equipment. If
more than one type of approved ground is available on the premises, the grounds must be
bonded together as required in Section 250-81 of the NEC for the US or per the local electrical
code regulations in the country of installation.
● Grounded Building Steel. The metal frame of the building where it is effectively grounded
by one of the following grounds: acceptable metallic water pipe, concrete encased ground,
or a ground ring.
● Acceptable Water Pipe. A metal underground water pipe, at least 1/2 in (1.3 cm) in
diameter, in direct contact with the earth for at least 10 ft (3m). The pipe must be
electrically continuous (or made electrically continuous by bonding around insulated joints,
plastic pipe, or plastic water meters) to the point where the protector ground wire connects.
A metallic underground water pipe must be supplemented by the metal frame of the
building, a concrete-encased ground, or a ground ring. If these grounds are not available,
the water pipe ground can be supplemented by one of the following types of grounds:
- Other local metal underground systems or structures, such as tanks and piping
systems.
- Rod and pipe electrodes. A 5/8 in (1.6 cm) solid rod or 3/4 in (2 cm) conduit or pipe
electrode driven to a minimum depth of 8 ft (2.4 m).
- Plate electrodes. Must have a minimum of 2 sq. ft (0.185 sq. m) of metallic surface
exposed to the exterior soil.
● Concrete Encased Ground. An electrode encased by at least 2 in (5.1 cm) of concrete and
located within and near the bottom of a concrete foundation or footing in direct contact with
the earth. The electrode must be at least 20 ft (6.1 m) of one or more steel reinforcing bars
or rods, 1/2 in (1.3 cm) in diameter, or at least 20 ft (6.1 m) of bare solid copper, 4 AWG
(26 mm2) wire.
● Ground Ring. A buried ground that encircles a building or structure at a depth of at least
2.5 ft (0.76 m) below the earth’s surface. The ground ring must be at least 20 ft (6.1 m) of
2 AWG (35 mm2) bare copper wire.
● Approved Floor Grounds. Floor grounds are those grounds on each floor of a high-rise
building that are suitable for connection to the ground terminal in the riser closet and to the
cabinet single-point ground terminal. Approved floor grounds may include the following:
- Building steel.

42 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway


Step 4: Attaching ground conductors

- The grounding conductor for the secondary side of the power transformer feeding the
floor.
- Metallic water pipes.
- Power-feed metallic conduit supplying panel boards on the floor.
- A grounding point specifically provided in the building for that purpose.

! WARNING:
WARNING: If the approved ground or approved floor ground can only be accessed inside a
dedicated power equipment room, then connections to this ground must be made
by a licensed electrician.

Connecting the safety ground


Proper grounding of the G450 installation safeguards the system, users, and service personnel
by providing protection from lightning, power surges, AC mains faults, power crosses on central
office trunks, and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Local electrical installation codes must be followed when installing the G450.

! DANGER:
DANGER: Connection of both grounds (through the AC Power Cord and the Supplementary
Ground Conductor) is required for safe operation of the G450.

! WARNING:
WARNING: An improper ground can cause electrical shock as well as equipment failures and
service outages.

Attaching the ground wires


1. Place the ring terminal of the 10 AWG (4.0 mm2) Supplementary Ground Conductor on the
ground screw that was provided in the accessories box.
2. Insert the ground screw on the rear of the chassis adjacent to the ground symbol and
securely tighten the screw such that it cannot be loosened without the use of a tool.

If the ground block has been purchased


1. Cut the Supplementary Ground Conductor (which has one end attached to the grounding
screw on the chassis) to the length needed to terminate it into one of the terminals of the
ground block. Do not coil the Supplementary Ground Conductor.
2. Attach one end of the remaining 10 AWG (4 mm2) ground wire to one of the terminals in
the ground block and the other end to an approved ground.

Issue 4 May 2009 55


Connecting devices

Step 2: Installing circuit protection


Out-of-building installations of telephones or other standard (tip/ring) devices/terminals that
connect to the Avaya G450 Media Gateway media modules require over-voltage and sneak
current protection in both buildings. Field installed sneak current protectors must have a
maximum current rating of 350 mA and a minimum voltage rating of 600V. The following devices
have been evaluated or tested and approved to protect the media modules from over-voltages
and sneak current protection:
● For the Avaya MM710 or MM340 T1/E1. Over-voltage and sneak current protection for the
Avaya MM710 and MM340 are provided on the media modules themselves.
● For the Avaya MM711, MM714, MM714B, and MM716 Analog. Over-voltage and sneak
current protection for these interfaces is provided on the media modules/interfaces.
Incoming trunks normally have over-voltage protection provided by the local telephone
company. Analog voice terminals use one of the following types of combined over-voltage
and sneak current protection at both building entry points:
- Gas tube with heat coil. 4B1E-W
- Solid state with heat coil. 4C1S
- IROB. 146C (4-lines) or 146F (25-lines)
● For the Avaya MM712 DCP: either 146E IROB (In-Range Out-of-Building) or 4C3S-75
solid state protectors for over-voltage and sneak current.
● For the Avaya MM722 ISDN-BRI: over-voltage and sneak current protection are provided
on the media modules themselves.
● For the Avaya MM720 ISDN-BRI: network-side applications require an NT-1 device. Tie
trunk applications require either the 146E IROB (In-Range Out-of-Building) or 4C3S-75
solid state protectors for over-voltage and sneak current.

56 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway


Step 3: Connecting to the Wide Area Network (WAN)

! WARNING:
WARNING: Only service-trained personnel are to install these circuit protection devices.

! WARNING:
WARNING: With the exception of the MM712, all DCP media modules are intended for
in-building use only. Phone lines connected to these ports are not to be routed
out-of-building. Failure to comply with this could cause harm to personnel and
equipment.

Step 3: Connecting to the Wide Area Network (WAN)


Since the G450 contains an internal router, you can connect the G450 directly to a WAN
endpoint device. You can also connect a WAN endpoint device to the G450 via an external
router.

Connecting a WAN to the G450


There are some differences in how to connect the WAN, depending on the type of WAN link you
are connecting.

Connecting a WAN link to the MM342 media module


You must connect the WAN link to a device connected to the Avaya MM342 media module.
To connect the WAN link, plug the WAN line into the USP port on the MM342 media module.
This port is marked USP. To connect the WAN line to the port, use one of the following cable
types, depending on the service provider’s equipment:
● Avaya Serial Cable DTE V.35
● Avaya Serial Cable DTE X.21

Figure 21: The MM342 media module

Issue 4 May 2009 57


Connecting devices

Connecting an E1/T1 WAN link to the MM340 media module


To connect the WAN link, plug the WAN line into the E1/T1 port on the MM340 media module.
This port is marked E1/T1. Use an unshielded twisted pair cable, straight or crossover,
depending on the WAN equipment.

Figure 22: The MM340 media module

Connecting an Ethernet WAN link


You must connect the Ethernet WAN line (DSL, firewall, etc.) to the Ethernet WAN port on the
front panel of the Avaya G450 Media Gateway chassis. This port is marked ETH WAN. See
Figure 6. Use a CAT5 Ethernet cable to connect the WAN line to the port.

Connecting an external router to the G450


You can connect a router to any of the following ports on the G450:
● The ETH WAN ports on the G450 front panel
● The ETH LAN ports on the G450 front panel

Step 4: Installing the Coupled Bonding Conductor


The Coupled Bonding Conductor (CBC) provides mutual inductance coupling between the CBC
and the telephone cables that are exposed to lightning. The conductor can be a 10 AWG
(4 mm2) wire tie wrapped to the exposed cables, a metal cable shield around the exposed
cables, or six spare pairs from the exposed cable. In a high-rise building, connect the CBC to an
approved building ground on each floor.

58 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway


Step 5: Installing the Avaya Partner Contact Closure Adjunct

Installing the CBC


Before you begin, be sure the telephone lines are cross-connected to the appropriate media
module(s).
1. Connect one end of the conductor to a telephone cable building entrance protector ground
that is connected to an approved ground.
2. Route the rest of the conductor next to the exposed telephone cables being protected until
they reach the cross-connect nearest to the telephone system.
3. Terminate the other end to the single-point ground block provided for the telephone
system.
Note:
Note: Position the non-exposed telephone cables at least 12 in (30.5 cm) away from
exposed telephone cables whenever possible.

Step 5: Installing the Avaya Partner Contact Closure


Adjunct
The Contact Closure feature is a controllable relay providing dry contacts for various
applications. To implement the contact closure feature, you connect an Avaya Partner Contact
Closure Adjunct box to the CCA port on the G450 chassis. The adjunct box provides two
contact closures that can be operated in either a “normally closed” or “normally open” state. The
contact closures can control auxiliary devices such as devices that automatically lock or unlock
doors or voice recording units. The CCA port can be configured so that the connected devices
can be controlled by an end device, such as a telephone. For example, a user can unlock a
door by keying a sequence into a telephone keypad.

Installing the contact closure


1. Follow the installation instructions in the Avaya Partner Contact Closure Adjunct
Installation Instructions leaflet to install the Contact Closure and connect the auxiliary
devices that will be activated and deactivated by the Contact Closure relays.
2. Note which device is connected to each relay. You will need this information for
configuration.
3. Connect the Avaya Partner Contact Closure adjunct box to the CC port on the G450 front
panel. Use a 24 gauge minimum telephone wire, no longer than 200 ft, with a standard four
wire RJ-11 connector.

Connecting devices

Step 6: Installing an 808A Emergency Transfer Panel and


associated telephones
The ETR feature provides basic telephone services in the event of system failure, such as a
power outage or a failed connection to the MGC. The ETR feature can be used in conjunction
with an analog media module (MM711, MM714, MM714B, or MM716). The ETR panel provides
up to five incoming Central Office (CO) trunk loops to 5 selected G450 analog lines. Thus, one
ETR panel supports up to five emergency lines. You can cascade a second ETR panel,
providing support for up to 10 emergency analog phones. ETR is activated automatically upon
system failure by closing the tip/ring contacts between the analog lines and the analog trunks.
When ETR is activated, all calls are directed by the analog relays between the outside lines and
the analog telephones. A current-loop detection circuit prevents ongoing calls from being
disconnected when normal functioning resumes. If a call is in progress on an outside line when
the problem ends, the call continues. The trunk port and analog line port passing through the
ETR panel do not start to operate until the active call ends.
For information on installing the 808A Emergency Transfer Panel, see 808A Emergency
Transfer Panel Installation Instructions, 03-602518, which ships with the Emergency Transfer
Panel.

After installation

LSP failover testing


If you have an S8300 Server module installed in the G450 and configured as an LSP, you need
to perform a test to make sure that the LSP takes over control of the G450 if the G450 becomes
disconnected from the primary MGC.
1. Verify that valid translations are file synchronized to the LSP by logging into Avaya Aura
Communication Manager from the LSP and listing either stations or trunks (refer to
Administrator’s Guide for Avaya Aura Communication Manager, 555-233-506). Verify that
the list of stations or trunks is valid. If the files are not synchronized, verify that you have
correctly configured the required IP address(es) for the primary controller (MGC). If you
are using Avaya IW to configure the G450, the following are key actions that must be done
in the wizard to ensure correct IP address configuration:
a. In the Usage options screen, select Install this media server as an LSP. The Primary
Controller IP Address screen appears later in the wizard, and calls for the required
primary controller IP addresses for your primary controller type. Refer to Table 5 for
the IP addresses and controller information.
b. In the Primary Controller IP address screen, enter all the required IP addresses for the
primary controller type.
There may be a delay after running AIW until the LSP is registered with the primary
MGC and the translations are file synchronized.
2. If valid translations are not file synchronized to the LSP, do the following:
a. From a SAT session run from the primary controller, verify that the LSP node-name
and IP address are correctly entered.
b. Use the save translation lsp command to start the file synchronization process.
c. Log in again to Avaya Aura Communication Manager from the LSP and list either
stations or trunks.
d. Verify that the list of stations or trunks is valid.
3. Disconnect the G450 from the primary controller, ensuring that all telephones are still
connected to the G450.
4. Verify that calls can be made between local telephones and to outside telephones.

Chapter 7: Adding media modules and
devices

When adding new devices to the G450, consult your project manager for topology requirements
for specific ports to be connected to specific devices.

Adding a media module


Various media modules including voice modules or WAN modules can be added to the Avaya
G450 Media Gateway.

Adding voice modules


You can hot-swap voice modules. This means that you can add or remove a voice module in the
Avaya G450 Media Gateway while the system is running, without any disruption to your
network. Configuration of the G450 is not necessary when you add or remove a voice module.
Configuration is only necessary when you add telephones, fax machines, and trunks to the new
module. See Adding a telephone on page 83 and Adding a trunk on page 84.
Some configuration of the Avaya Aura Communication Manager is necessary when you install
an MM710, MM720, or MM722 media module. See Administrator’s Guide for Avaya Aura
Communication Manager, 555-233-506. Also, for an MM710 or MM722, it is usually advisable to
set the media module as the synchronization source of the G450. For information about setting
the synchronization source of the G450, see Maintenance Commands for Avaya Aura
Communication Manager, Media Gateways and Servers, 03-300431.

Adding WAN modules


You can hot-swap WAN modules. This means you can add or remove a WAN module in the
Avaya G450 Media Gateway while the system is running, but the G450 resets when you add or
remove the module. However, hot insertion and removal is not recommended in most cases.
Because hot insertion or removal resets the G450, any translation and other data that is in the
running configuration but has not been saved to the startup configuration will be lost.

Issue 4 May 2009 81

Installing the upgrade memory kit

Installing the upgrade memory kit


The upgrade memory kit enables increasing the number of announcement files on the G450
from 256 to 1024, by storing them on a removable compact flash. This also increases the total
amount of announcement time from 45 minutes to four hours. Since the announcements are
played from RAM, you must also increase RAM. The upgrade memory kit therefore consists of:
● 1 GB compact flash memory card
● Two RAM cards. One is intended for use in a G450 1.x, and the other is intended for use in
a G450 2.x.

Inserting or replacing a RAM card in the G450


The G450 has two RAM slots. The basic configuration includes one 256 MB RAM card.
The slots are located on the G450 main board. You must pull out the main board to remove or
insert a memory card. The G450 supports hot insertion and removal of the main board without
power drop. However, all services are suspended while the G450 main board is out, and all
calls passing through the gateway are disconnected. Any translation and other data that is in
the running configuration but has not been saved to the startup configuration is lost.
To increase RAM memory in the gateway:
● In the G450 1.x, insert the 256 MB RAM card provided in the kit into the second RAM
slot.
● In the G450 2.x, remove the RAM card from the main board and replace it with the
512 MB RAM card provided in the kit.
These procedures include the following steps:
1. Removing the G450 main board. See Removing and inserting the G450 main board on
page 88.
2. Upgrading RAM memory:

110 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
Upgrading G450 firmware using the CLI via FTP/TFTP

Setting up a TFTP server


To load individual firmware files on an Avaya G450 Media Gateway, you must place the files on
a PC connected to the customer’s LAN or on an S8300 Server in the customer’s network. Later,
you will log onto the G450 and use its TFTP capability to download the new firmware. If you can
use an S8300 Server to stage the firmware, see Installing firmware from the TFTP server on the
S8300 Server on page 112. If not, a TFTP server must be set up on the LAN.
Note:
Note: A Linux or Unix TFTP server should be used only if a Linux or Unix TFTP server
already exists on the local network. In this case, download the appropriate files to
your laptop and give it to the customer for proper placement and execution.

Downloading G450 firmware files to a local TFTP server


1. Access the www.avaya.com/support website.
2. Navigate to G450 Media Gateway downloads.
3. Locate the file names that match the files listed in your installation worksheet. See Table 8
for sample firmware file names.
4. Double-click the file name of the file you want to download. A File Download window
appears.
5. Select Save this file to disk.
6. Save the file to directory on the TFTP server on the local LAN that was created for this
purpose. See Setting up a TFTP server on page 111.
Note:
Note: If you are performing the upgrade using the G450’s Command Line Interface
(CLI) or the Upgrade Tool, you can place the upgrade files on an FTP server.
However, the GIW requires that the files be placed on a TFTP server.
Note:
Note: Use WinZip or another zip file tool to unzip the file, if necessary, before you copy
the file to the TFTP server.

Installing firmware from the TFTP server on the S8300 Server


Instead of using a separately configured TFTP server on the LAN, you can use the TFTP server
capability of an S8300 Server to stage the firmware for upgrading the G450. To do this, you
must copy the individual firmware files to the /var/home/ftp/pub directory on the S8300 Server
using the Download Files web page on the S8300 Server. You must then copy the files to the
/tftpboot directory of the S8300 Server.
After copying the files to the /tftpboot directory, you can use the GIW or the Upgrade Tool to
install the files to the G450 or its media modules by specifying the S8300 Server’s IP address as
the TFTP server containing the new firmware files.

112 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
Upgrading G450 firmware using the CLI via a USB device

Note:
Note: You only have to do this if you have not upgraded the S8300 first or if you did
upgrade it first and found that the gateway files on the Communication Manager
CD were out of date. Otherwise, when you upgrade the S8300, the files appear in
the /tftpboot directory automatically.

Copying firmware files to the /tftpboot directory of an S8300 Server


1. Use Telnet, Avaya Site Administration, or another tool to access the S8300 Server
command line.
2. Log in as craft.
3. At the Linux prompt, type cd /var/home/ftp/pub and press <Enter>. The Linux
prompt reappears. The current directory has changed to /var/home/ftp/pub.
4. At the Linux prompt, type mv <firmware_filename> /tftpboot, and press <Enter> to
move the firmware file to the /tftpboot directory. To move multiple firmware files (most
firmware files have an .fdl suffix), use the command mv *.fdl /tftpboot. The Linux
prompt reappears. The firmware file has been moved to the /tftpboot directory. If you copy
the firmware using the cp command, remove the files from the /var/home/ftp/pub directory
after you have copied them.
5. Repeat step 4, if necessary, for each firmware file you want to install.
6. At the Linux prompt, type cd /tftpboot. The Linux prompt reappears. The current
directory has changed to /tftpboot.
7. At the Linux prompt, type ls, and press <Enter>. A list of files in the directory appears.
8. Check the directory to make sure the firmware files you want to install are listed.

Upgrading G450 firmware using the CLI via a USB device


You can upgrade firmware via a USB mass storage device using the CLI. The upgrade files
must first be downloaded to a local PC.
1. Prepare installation worksheets. See Preparing installation worksheets on page 109.
2. Download the firmware files to a PC. See Downloading G450 firmware files to a local
PC on page 114.
3. Insert a USB mass storage device into the PC’s USB port, and copy the firmware files to

114 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
Chapter 11: Upgrading IP phone
configuration and firmware
files

The Avaya G450 Media Gateway supports Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) downloading of
configuration files and firmware files for IP phones. TFTP can be used to download image files,
upgrade scripts, and settings files to IP phones. The local TFTP server stores the files and
supports requests to read files from the its outgoing directory for phone images and scripts.
You can use CLI procedures for downloading the files for IP phone upgrade from the G450
TFTP server.
Note:
Note: You can also upgrade IP phones using the S8300. For more details, refer to

Note: You can also upgrade IP phones using Avaya IW or GIW, as described in
Appendix C: Running the Avaya Installation Wizard (Avaya IW) on page 155 and
Appendix D: Running the Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW) on page 189.
Note:
Note: An alternative tool, the Avaya Software Update Manager (4.0 or higher), is a GUI
application that greatly simplifies the IP phone upgrade process, avoiding the
need to know the file names of the necessary upgrade files for each IP phone
type. For further information, see Avaya Software Update Manager User Guide,
14-300168.
Note:
Note: The IP address of the TFTP server is the PMI.

Administering the upgrade


When using supported IP phones with the G450, the IP phones require the downloading of the
settings file and the upgrade scripts. These files are stored in the script banks in NVRAM and
are preserved in the event of a reset or power failure. There are two script banks.

116 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
Administering the upgrade

In addition, each phone can have a booter application and a phone application. There are four
banks that can store up to two phone images (booter and phone application files) at any given
time. Since the image files are stored in RAM, a reset or power failure erases these files. The
image files are used only for upgrading the IP phone, so there is no need to store them
permanently. However, the scripts are used by the IP phones when they are reset, and are
therefore stored in NVRAM. You can upgrade up to two types of phones and then release the
banks for use with another IP phone type.
There are cases where the image files are the same for different IP phone types. In these
cases, you can download the image files once for the IP phones that use the same image. The
scripts are global to all the supported IP phone images.
You can download and then upload setting script files in order to update their content. It is not
recommended to change the upgrade script.
By default, the RAM allocation for TFTP server is 10 MB. You can increase the RAM allocation
for TFTP server to up to 11.264 MB at the expense of the Sniffer cache application. The
maximum RAM for both applications is 12 MB.
There are four image banks, supporting two IP phone images in RAM, provided the combined
file sizes do not exceed the RAM allocation for TFTP server. The maximum size for a booter
application or phone application file is 4.5 MB. Thus, it is possible that in some cases, the
allocation may only suffice for one complete IP phone image and not two.

! CAUTION:
CAUTION: To activate a change in RAM allocation to the TFTP server, reset is required.
Upon reset, any phone image files stored in RAM are erased.
Note:
Note: Previous releases of TFTP server required the configuration of the DHCP server
option 43/176 with the named value pair TFTPDIR=/phonedir/ in order to allow
the IP phone to access the files in this directory. This configuration is still
supported but is no longer required.

Upgrading the IP telephone


IP phone upgrade files include script files, boot images files, and phone application image files.
You can download these files to a remote FTP/TFTP/SCP server, or you can download them to
a laptop and copy them to a USB device. You can then copy the upgrade files to the G450.
Note:
Note: An SCP server can be used for copying the script files, which do not exceed
128 KB, but cannot be used for copying image files.

Issue 4 May 2009 117


Upgrading IP phone configuration and firmware files

Note:
Note: The G450 uses the SSH protocol to support the use of SCP for secure file
transfer. When using SCP, the G450 is the SCP client, and an SCP server must
be configured on the management station. For more information about
establishing an SCP session, see Administration for the Avaya G450 Media
Gateway, 03-602055.
1. Check the available memory size for the image files using the show
application-memory command. If the memory size needs to be changed, proceed to
step 2, otherwise proceed to step 6.
2. Set the memory size for the image files using the ip tftp-server file-system
size command.
3. Copy the running configuration to the start-up configuration using the copy
running-config startup-config command.
4. Reset the G450 using the reset command.
5. From the Avaya Support website, obtain the desired phone upgrade files (script files, boot
image files, phone application image files), using either of the following methods:
- Download the phone upgrade files to a remote FTP/TFTP/SCP server. Note that SCP
can be used to download script files but not image files.
- Download the upgrade files to a laptop and copy them to a USB mass storage device.
6. Copy the script files for the IP phone family.
- To copy from the remote FTP/SCP/TFTP server, use one of the following commands:
● copy scp phone-script
● copy ftp phone-script
● copy tftp phone-script
- To copy from the USB device, insert the USB device into a G450 USB port and copy
the files to the resident TFTP server using the copy usb phone-script command.
7. Copy the boot image files for up to two IP phone types.
- To copy from the remote FTP/TFTP server, use either the copy ftp phone-image
command or the copy tftp phone-image command for each IP phone type.
- To copy from the USB device, insert the USB device into a G450 USB port and copy
the files to the resident TFTP server using the copy usb phone-image command.
8. Copy the phone application image files for up to two IP phone types.
- To copy from the remote FTP/TFTP server, use either the copy ftp phone-image
command or the copy tftp phone-image command for each IP phone type.
- To copy from the USB device, insert the USB device into a G450 USB port and copy
the files to the resident TFTP server using the copy usb phone-image command.

configuration banks in NVRAM, while phone images are stored in RAM
Note:
Note: Image files are cleared if you reset the gateway.
● Phone image banks are stored in the same TFTP directory. Therefore, you cannot copy
the same file name to more then one bank. Copying a file to a bank containing a file with
the same file name causes the old file to be overwritten by the new one.
● File names for IP phone image files and script files are limited to 32 characters

Chapter 12: Backing up and restoring the
G450

You can backup and restore the G450 to and from a USB mass storage device using a single
CLI command for backup and a single CLI command for restore. This is especially helpful for
efficient restoring or replicating of a G450 media gateway.
If the G450 is located remotely, you can backup and restore the G450 files one by one, using
TFTP/FTP/SCP servers.
For information about G450 backup and restore, see chapter 5 in Administration for the Avaya

Backing up and restoring the G450

126 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
Chapter 13: Troubleshooting

You can have problems with phones, a trunk, the power, or the WAN line. It is necessary to
identify the specific problem to figure out how it can be resolved. In addition, you may have to
perform an NVRAM initialization if you are unable to access the CLI.

One telephone stops working


If one telephone in the network stops working, but the other telephones and data devices
continue to work normally, the problem is probably with the telephone itself. There could also be
a problem with the telephone’s connection to the Avaya G450 Media Gateway, or a power
management event, in which the power budget is exceeded and low priority ports are
disconnected.

Identifying the problem when one phone stops working


1. Replace the telephone. If the new telephone works, the problem is with the telephone
itself. If the new telephone does not work, go on to the next step.
2. Connect the telephone to a different power supply. If the telephone works, the problem is
with the original power supply. If the telephone still does not work, go on to the next step.
3. Connect the telephone to a different network port. If the telephone works, the problem is
with the original network port. If the telephone still does not work, go on to the next step.
4. Check the module on the Avaya G450 Media Gateway to which the telephone is
connected. Check whether the physical connection is loose, and tighten the connection if
necessary. If the telephone still does not work, go on to the next step.
5. Check the LEDs on the module to which the telephone connects. Make sure the LED for
the port to which the telephone is connected is lit. If it is not lit, the problem may be with the
port or the module. If the ALM LED is lit, this is also an indication that there is a problem
with the port or the module. Note the port and module and contact your project manager.
For information on the various modules and their LEDs, see Appendix A: Front panel
description on page 133.

Issue 4 May 2009 127


Troubleshooting

Several telephones stop working


If some telephones in the network stop working, but others continue to work, the problem could
be with a trunk or with one of the modules in the G450.

Identifying the problem when several phones stop working


1. Determine whether all the telephones that are affected connect to the same switch or port.
If they do, the problem is probably with that switch or port. If they do not, go on to the next
step.
2. Determine whether all the telephones that are affected connect to the same module. If
they do, check the LEDs on that module. If the ALM LED is lit, there may be a problem with
the module. Contact your project manager. If not, go on to the next step. For information
on the various modules and their LEDs, see Appendix A: Front panel description on
page 133.
3. Check the ALM LED on the Avaya G450 Media Gateway chassis. If it is lit, there may be a
system-wide problem. Contact your project manager. For information on the chassis, see
Appendix A: Front panel description on page 133.

No power on the G450


1. Check the AC power source with a voltmeter.
2. Connect the Avaya G450 Media Gateway to a different AC power source. If the G450 has
power, the problem is with the original power source. If the G450 still does not work, go on
to the next step.
3. Check the ALM LED on the Avaya G450 Media Gateway chassis. If it is lit, there may be a
system-wide problem. Contact your project manager. See Appendix A: Front panel
description on page 133.

A trunk stops working


1. Check the connection between the trunk and the Avaya G450 Media Gateway. If the
physical connection is loose, tighten the connection. If the trunk still does not work, go on
to the next step.

128 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
A WAN line stops working

2. Check the ALM LED on the module to which the trunk connects. If it is lit, see Maintenance
Alarms for Communication Manager 2.1, Media Gateways and Servers, 03-300190 for
testing procedures.

A WAN line stops working


1. Check the connection between the WAN line and the Avaya G450 Media Gateway. If the
physical connection is loose, tighten the connection. If the line still does not work, go on to
the next step.
2. Check the ALM LED on the module to which the WAN line connects. If the ALM LED is lit,
the problem may be the configuration of the module or a lack of T1 signal. You can try the
following:
- For E1/T1 interfaces, use the show controllers command to view the status of the
interface’s controller. Make sure the controller is up, and that all error counters do not
increase.
- For all serial interfaces (E1/T1 and USB), use the show interfaces Serial
command to verify that the interface and line protocol are both up.
- For USB interfaces only, use the show interfaces Serial command to verify that
all line signals are up.

IA770 INTUITY AUDIX messaging application

IA770 INTUITY AUDIX messaging application


The IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging Application runs on a G450 Media Gateway controlled
by an S8300 Server. Without the need for additional hardware, IA770 INTUITY AUDIX software
processes touchtones, converts messages to the G.711 format, and converts text to speech.
Note:
Note: For complete information on IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Installations, see Avaya
IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging, Release 3.0, Installation, Upgrades, and
Troubleshooting, 11-300532.

! CAUTION:
CAUTION: IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging processes messages using the G.711 codec
only. Therefore, ensure that a codec set exists that uses only the G.711 codec.
Then, assign that codec set to a network region. And, finally, assign that network
region to the AUDIX signaling group that is linked to the IA770 INTUITY AUDIX
Messaging trunk group.

Shared resources of IA 770 coresidency


An IA770 uses many resources of the S8300 Server and the media gateway where it resides.
The following list outlines the S8300’s shared resources used by the IA770 INTUITY AUDIX
system:
● Hardware for data storage and retrieval
● TFTP server for:
- Downloading and updating the license file for feature activation
- Backing up and restoring data over a LAN or a WAN, including translations and
messages
- Updating and upgrading software
● IP address for administration access
● General Alarm Manager for alarm display
● Web interface to start and stop the system
The IA770 system also shares the same switch-tone parameters established for the S8300
Server. With the software-only version of the IA770 system that is currently sold, the S8300
Server handles switch tones on behalf of the IA770 system and passes on the control
information to the IA770 system using QSIG signaling. With the IA770 system that uses a
CWY1 board, the installer or administrator must set IA770 parameters to match those of the
S8300 Server.

Issue 4 May 2009 207


Power supplies and adjunct systems

Where is the IA770 location and software


IA770 INTUITY AUDIX messaging is a software-only version of INTUITY AUDIX messaging
that uses a QSIG-MWI H.323 virtual trunk for communication between the Communication
Manager and IA770 software. The INTUITY AUDIX system software is loaded directly onto the
S8300 hard drive.
Note:
Note: For upgrades only, a G450 Media Gateway that previously used a CWY1 board
can continue to use the CWY1 board with IA770 INTUITY AUDIX software.
However, the CWY1 board is no longer available for new systems.

Using an AUDIX trunk group as well as an AUDIX hunt group for


new systems
For new systems, an H.323 virtual trunk integration must be established. The virtual trunk
group, and signaling group, setup is handled automatically when you install IA770 INTUITY
AUDIX Messaging with the Avaya Installation Wizard. Otherwise, you must administer the trunk
group, its signaling group, and the assigned network region and IP codec set with
Communication Manager once the software is installed. The number of trunks assigned to the
trunk group can be either 3, 6, or 12.
The use of trunks replaces the need for voice ports in the hunt group. However, an INTUITY
AUDIX hunt group must still be defined. The hunt group setup is also handled automatically
when you install IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging with the Avaya Installation Wizard.
Otherwise, you must administer the hunt group using Communication Manager. Other switch
administration tasks that are associated with proper hunt group functions, such as creating
COR, COS, and coverage paths, are also required.

IA770 INTUITY AUDIX installations and S8300


upgrades for IA770 INTUITY AUDIX
The INTUITY AUDIX software must be installed or upgraded at the same time as the S8300
Communication Manager software load (the .rpm files). The IA770 software is delivered on the
Communication Manager software distribution CD. The Communication Manager installation
tools install IA770 INTUITY AUDIX automatically.

INTUITY AUDIX LX messaging system


The process of integrating an INTUITY AUDIX LX system with an Avaya S8300 Server involves
a series of tasks to prepare the switch to work with the INTUITY AUDIX LX system.
The procedures for this process are fully documented in INTUITY AUDIX LX Release 1.0
Documentation, 585-313-818. The information is contained in a document with the title INTUITY
AUDIX LX Release 1.0 LAN Integration with S8300 and DEFINITY® Systems.

Call center
The S8300 Server provides an excellent solution for a small call center. The S8300 Server with
the G450 Media Gateway supports the following call center capabilities:
● All three Avaya call center packages:
- Avaya Call Center Basic
- Avaya Call Center Deluxe
- Avaya Call Center Elite
● Up to 450 agents
● A maximum of 16 ASAI links
● Avaya G450 announcement software

About Avaya G450 announcement software


Voice announcements are used in a call center environment to announce delays, direct
customers to different departments, and entertain and inform calling parties. The announcement
capability is standard and comes co-resident on the G450. You can substantially increase the
number of supported announcement files on the gateway if you install a compact flash and
increased RAM (refer to Installing the upgrade memory kit on page 88). The G450
announcement software has many of the functions of the TN2501AP VAL circuit pack.
See Table 28 for differences between the Avaya G450 Announcement software and the VAL
circuit pack. For more information on Avaya G450 Announcement software, see the

DS1/T1 CPE loopback jack

DS1/T1 CPE loopback jack


This section provides information on how to install and use a DS1 loopback jack to test the DS1
span between the Avaya Server or Gateway and the network interface point. The loopback jack
is required when DC power is at the interface to the MM710 media module.
Note:
Note: Do not remove the loopback jack after installation. It should always be available
for remote tests of the DS1 span.
Note:
Note: For G450 Media Gateway systems, the channel service unit (CSU) is integrated
within the MM710 media module. This means that there is no need for a separate
external device. The loopback jack isolates the MM710 internal CSU from the DC
power and properly loops the DC span power.
This section covers:
● Installing a loopback jack on page 233
● Administering a loopback jack on page 234
● Testing a loopback jack with a smart jack on page 235
● Testing a loopback jack without a smart jack on page 244
● Configurations using fiber multiplexers on page 246

Installing a loopback jack


You can use one of two installation options:
● Installing a loopback jack with a smart jack on page 234
● Installing a loopback jack without a smart jack on page 234

Selecting the loopback jack installation method


Select the installation method as follows:
● Install the loopback jack at the interface to the smart jack, if possible.
This position provides maximum coverage of CPE wiring when remote loopback tests are
run.
● If the smart jack is not accessible, install the loopback jack at the extended demarcation
point.

Issue 4 May 2009 233


Power supplies and adjunct systems

● If there is no extended demarcation point, install the loopback jack directly at the network
interface point as shown in Figure 99.
● If there is an extended demarcation point and the smart jack is not accessible, install the
loopback jack as shown in Figure 100.
● If there is an extended demarcation point, but the smart jack is accessible, install the
loopback jack as shown in Figure 101.

Installing a loopback jack with a smart jack


1. Disconnect the RJ-48 (8-wide) connector at the appropriate interface point, and connect
the loopback jack in series with the DS1 span.
See Figure 99 through Figure 101.
2. Plug the H600-383 cable from the MM710 into the female connector on the loopback jack.
3. Plug the male connector on the loopback jack cable into the network interface point.
Note:
Note: Do not remove the loopback jack after installation. This is not a test tool and
should always be available to remotely test a DS1 span.

Installing a loopback jack without a smart jack


Install the loopback jack at the point where the cabling from the MM710 plugs into the dumb
block. However, if there is more than one dumb block, choose the one that is closest to the
Interface Termination feed or the fiber MUX, to provide maximum coverage for loopback jack
tests. Refer to Figure 102 and Figure 103.
1. Disconnect the RJ-48 (8-wide) connector at the appropriate interface point, and connect
the loopback jack in series with the DS1 span.
See Figure 102 through Figure 103.
2. Plug the H600-383 cable from the MM710 into the female connector on the loopback jack.
3. Plug the male connector on the loopback jack cable into the network interface point.
Note:
Note: Do not remove the loopback jack after installation. This is not a test tool and
should always be available to remotely test a DS1 span.

Administering a loopback jack


1. At the management terminal, type change ds1 location
where location is the DS1 interface circuit pack corresponding to the loopback jack.

234 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
DS1/T1 CPE loopback jack

2. Verify that the near-end CSU type is set to integrated.


3. On page 2 of the form, change the supply CPE loopback jack power field to y.
Setting this field to y informs the technician that a loopback jack is present on the facility
and allows the technician to determine that the facility is available for remote testing.
4. Enter save translation to save the new information.

Testing a loopback jack with a smart jack


The loopback jack and smart jack isolate faults by dividing the DS1 span into three sections
(see Figure 99 through Figure 101).
These three sections are:
● From the MM710 to the loopback jack
● From the loopback jack to the smart jack (network interface point)
● From the smart jack to the CO
The first two sections are your responsibility. The last is the responsibility of the DS1 service
provider.

Testing the DS1 span from the MM710 to the loopback jack
The DS1 span test has 2 parts:
● Checking for circuit connectivity between the DS1 circuit pack and the loopback jack.
The first part of the test powers-up the loopback jack and sends a signal from the DS1
circuit pack, through the wiring, to the loopback jack. The test allows about 10 seconds for
the signal to loop around the loopback jack and return to the DS1 circuit pack. Then it sends
the results to the management terminal and proceeds to the second part of the test.
● The second part of the test sends the standard, 3-in-24 DS1 stress-testing pattern from the
DS1 board, through the loopback jack, and back to a bit error detector and counter on the
DS1 board. A bit-error rate counter displays the results on the management terminal until
you terminate the test.
Always perform both parts of the test. Proceed as follows.

Checking the integrity of local equipment


Before you go any further, make sure that the problem is actually on the DS1 span by testing
the equipment that connects to the span at the near end. Test the DS1 circuit pack, and perform
any needed maintenance or repairs.

Testing a loopback jack without a smart jack


When the loopback jack is added to a span that does not contain a smart jack, the span is
divided into two sections: from the MM710 to the loopback jack and from the loopback jack to
the central office (CO). Section 2 includes the short cable from the loopback jack to the dumb
block demarcation point (part of the loopback jack). This cable is the only part of Section 2 that
is part of customer premises wiring. It is not covered in the loopback jack’s loopback path. See
Figure 102 and Figure 103.

You are responsible for finding and correcting problems in the customer wiring (section 1 and
the loopback cable portion of section 2). The DS1 service provider is responsible for finding and
correcting problems in the majority of section 2.
1. Test customer premises wiring from the MM710 to the loopback jack, as described in
Testing the DS1 span from the loopback jack to the smart jack on page 240.
2. Test the loopback jack-to-dumb block and dumb block-to-CO wiring (section 2 in
Figure 102 and Figure 103).
This can be done using a loopback that “overlaps” the section of the span. Any of the
following loopbacks can do this:
● The local MM710’s line loopback, which the DS1 service provider at the CO end
typically activates, tests, and then deactivates.

Issue 4 May 2009 245


Power supplies and adjunct systems

● The local DS1 interface’s payload loopback, which the DS1 service provider at the CO
end activates and tests.
● The far-end MM710’s line loopback:
a. At the SAT type test ds1-loop location
far-csu-loopback-test-begin to activate this test,
where location is the DS1 interface circuit pack corresponding to the loopback
jack.
b. Type test ds1-loop location end-loopback/span-test to terminate
this test,
where location is the DS1 interface circuit pack corresponding to the loopback
jack.
Bit error counts are examined as described in Testing the DS1 span from the MM710 to
the loopback jack on page 235. This test only isolates problems to Section 2 wiring if there
are no problems in the wiring between the far-end CO and the far-end MM710. Coordinate
this test with the DS1 service provider.
Failure of any of these tests indicate a problem in Section 2. This could mean bad
loopback jack -to-”dumb” block cabling, but is more likely to indicate a problem somewhere
between the “dumb” block and the CO. This is the responsibility of the DS1 service
provider.
If the DS1 Span Test confirms that there are no problems in Section 1, the technician
should proceed as follows to avoid unnecessary dispatch:
a. Identify and contact the DS1 service provider.
b. Inform the DS1 provider that loopback tests of the CPE wiring to the “dumb” block
(section 1) showed no problems.
c. If the far-end MM710 line loopback test failed, inform the DS1 provider.
d. Request that the DS1 provider perform a loopback test of their portion of the Section 2
wiring by sending someone out to loop Section 2 back to the CO at the “dumb” block.
If this test fails, the problem is in the service provider’s wiring.
If the test passes, the problem is in the cable between the loopback jack and the “dumb”
block. Replace the loopback jack.

Configurations using fiber multiplexers


Use the loopback jack when customer premises DS1 wiring connects to an on-site fiber
multiplexer (MUX) and allows wiring to the network interface point on the MUX to be remotely
tested. This requires that the MM710 CSU be set so it can be used on DS1 wiring to the MUX.
Fiber MUXs can take the place of Interface termination feeds as shown in Figure 99 through
Figure 102. Test these spans using the same procedures as metallic spans.

246 Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G450 Media Gateway
DS1/T1 CPE loopback jack

Note:
Note: Fiber MUXs may have loopback capabilities that the service provider can activate
from the CO end. These may loop the signal back to the CO or back to the DS1
MM710. If the MUX provides the equivalent of a line loopback on the “problem”
DS1 facility, activate it after a successful loopback jack test, and use it to isolate
problems to the wiring between the loopback jack and the MUX.

! Important:
Important: Be aware that there are installations that use repeater-augmented metallic lines
between the MUX and the “dumb” block. These lines require DC power for the
repeaters and this DC power is present at the “dumb” block interface to the CPE
equipment. A loopback jack is required in this configuration to properly isolate
and terminate the DC power.

Checking for the presence of DC


1. Make the following four measurements at the network interface jack:
● From transmit tip (T, Pin 5) to receive tip (T1, Pin 2)
● From transmit ring (R, Pin 4) to receive ring (R1, Pin 1)
● From transmit tip (T, Pin 5) to transmit ring (R, Pin 4)
● From receive tip (T1, Pin 2) to receive ring (R1, Pin 1)
All measurements should read 0 (zero) volts DC.

External modems
The following section assumes that you are using one of the recommended external modems.
However, any locally obtained, type-approved external modem should work. Contact your
Avaya representative for more information.
Recommended modems include:
● Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-USB-V92
This section covers:
● Hardware required when configuring modems on page 248
● Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-USB-V92 on page 248
● Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-V92-GLOBAL on page 249
● Administering Multi-Tech modems on page 249

Hardware required when configuring modems


To configure many modems, you use the Hayes-compatible AT command set.
Note:
Note: If your modem uses a USB connection, use the USB ports instead of the serial
port. Also, AT commands are not required, so you can skip this section. Use the
factory defaults.
Before you can enter AT configuration commands, you must first connect a terminal or a PC
with a keyboard, monitor, and terminal-emulation software to the modem, as follows:
1. Connect one end of an RS-232 cable to an RS-232, serial-communications port (often
called a COM port) on the terminal or PC.
2. Connect the other end of the RS-232 cable to the modem.
3. If you are using a PC, start your terminal emulation software.

Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-USB-V92
Avaya recommends using a Multi-Tech USB modem, model MT5634ZBA-USB-V92, with an
S8300/700, S85XX, or S87XX configuration. This modem is used for sending alarms, as well as
for remote dial up to the server for maintenance and administration.

External modems

Configuring the MT5634ZBA-USB-V92 modem


In the United States, the Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-US-V92 modem gets configured automatically
through the USB port with the factory defaults. No special configuration is necessary. In a
non-US country, the modem may require settings specific to the country in which the modem
will be used.

Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA-V92-GLOBAL
Avaya recommends using a Multi-Tech serial modem, model MT5634ZBA-V92-GLOBAL, with a
G450 media gateway.
The Multi-Tech serial modem connects the G450 media gateway to an external trunk. This
connection enables remote dial in capability for administration and troubleshooting.

Administering Multi-Tech modems


The Multi-Tech modems do not require administration if used in the United States. In non-US
countries, these modems may require administration.
For the full range of modem options, see the Administrator Guide for Avaya Aura
