will have the right to inspect the Product or workmanship on BUYER's premises. With respect to a
warranty defect in Product hardware reported to Force10 Networks by BUYER during the warranty
period, Force10 Networks, as its sole obligation and BUYER's exclusive remedy for any breach of
warranty, will use commercially reasonable efforts, at its option, to:

Preface

With respect to a warranty defect in the Licensed Software reported to Force10 Networks by BUYER
during the 90-day software warranty period, Force10 Networks, at its own expense and as its sole
obligation and BUYER's exclusive remedy for any breach of the software warranty, will use
commercially reasonable efforts to, at its option,

a. correct any reproducible error in the Licensed Software, or

b. replace the defective Licensed Software, as follows:

Should a Severity 1 or 2 warranty defect with the Software occur during the 90-day
warranty period, Force10 Networks will provide, in its sole determination, either

1. software to resolve the defect to be downloaded into the affected units by the
BUYER or

2. a documented workaround to address the issue.

Severity 1 issues are failures of the Licensed Software to comply with the Force10 Networks
software specifications and that completely or severely affect the Force10 Networks Product and
its traffic or service capacity, or maintenance or monitoring capabilities.

Severity 2 issues are failures of the Licensed Software to comply with the Force10 Networks
software specifications and that result in a major degradation of the Force10 Networks Product
so as to impact its system or service performance, or significant impairments to network operator
control or effectiveness. Should a Severity 3 warranty defect with the Licensed Software occur
during the 90-day warranty period, Force10 Networks will provide assistance to Buyer to
determine if a solution or workaround will be provided in a subsequent software release
following the reported issue.

Severity 3 issues are defined as failures of the Licensed Software to comply with the Force10
Networks software specifications but that do not significantly impair the function or service of
the Force10 Networks Product or the system.

Determination of Severity 1, 2 or 3 shall be made solely by Force10 Networks following receipt
of the reported problem. Refurbished material may be used to repair or replace the Product.
BUYER shall bear the risk of loss for Products or Software returned to Force10 Networks for

Introduction

Overview

Overview

This manual covers the Router menu-driven user interface only, all other information
for the Router can be found in the Adit 600 User Manual.

The Router can be configured using CLI via telnet, through the Router Menu-driven
software.

The CMG Router has the following versions:

 CMG Service card

 CMG-01 Service card

 CMG-02 Service card

 CMG/CMG-02 Service card with G.729

Windows displaying the G.729 feature will be clearly noted in this manual.

Installation

The Router card can be installed into any of the service card slots (1-6) of the Adit 600
chassis. This card is hot-swappable, therefore the card can be removed and replaced
without bringing down the system or with or without power to the unit.

Install a Router Card

1. Slide the Router card into a service card slot of the chassis.

2. Press firmly into slot to engage, until card is seated completely.

3. Card has completed bootup when a solid Red CRD light (an LED) is displayed.

Install Country Specific Ringer Tones

The CMG Router card ships with a set of call progress tone files that allow call progress
tone definitions for a number of other countries to be used.The tones are played to a
VoIP endpoint at the direction of an external MGCP call agent. By default the call
progress are defined to match the United States standard call progress tones.

Tones are loaded via TFTP directly to the CMG Router card. All supported country
tones are provided on the software CD with the CMG Router. For more information see
the Adit 600 User Manual.

1-2 CMG Router - Release 2.97

Introduction

Maneuvering in the System

NOTE: Use of ringer tones requires an Adit 600 Controller with release 5.0 or
higher and CMG Router release 1.1 or higher.

Syntax: load {cmg_card-addr} tftp {ip-addr} {"tone_file"}
Example: load 2 tftp 172.26.100.25 "us.tdb"

Once a tone file is loaded into a CMG Router card it will remain in effect until replaced
by another. It is not removed when the CMG Router card is set back to its default
settings.

This window allows the network administrator to manage the list of devices and users
who are authorized to perform:

 Installation of software

 Backup of software and configuration settings (via tftp)

The Router has enhanced management capabilities enabling a network administrator to
perform a Code Upload of new software to the router from a central location via the
LAN or WAN connection using TFTP. A Code Download can also be performed to
save a backup copy (binary image) of the software to a file on a PC. Config Upload
and Config Download can also be performed remotely via TFTP to install and backup
the Router’s settings to and from a binary file.

There is an additional option to upload code to the Router, with the CLI command

load {slot-number} tftp {ip-addr}{"file-name"}

Example: load 4 tftp 172.26.100.25 "rtrall1_10.mgm"

The example loads the software upgrade file "rtrall1_10.mgm" from a
PC to a Router card in slot 4 via TFTP.
