Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 Installation and Upgrades
This section describes the Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100
(MCG 3100) server hardware and software components and provides an
overview of the installation options.
The MCG 3100 supports the following clients:
•
Nortel Mobile Communication Client 3100 (MCC 3100) for BlackBerry
15
•Nortel Mobile Communication Client 3100 for Nokia
•
Nortel Mobile Communication Client 3100 for Windows Mobile Single
Mode
This document refers to the supported clients using the generic term
clients.
ATTENTION
The MCG 3100 does not support the MCC 3100 for Windows Mobile Dual Mode.
The MCC 3100 for Windows Mobile Dual Mode communicates directly with the
communication server.
MCG 3100 server components
Nortel supports the MCG 3100 server software installed only on the Nortel
Linux Base, which is provided by Nortel.
Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 Installation and Upgrades
You must install the MCG 3100 software on a dedicated server that runs no
other applications.
Hardware components
The MCG 3100 server runs only on the following supported commercial
off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware:
•
HP DL320G4 (NTDU97AAE5)
•IBM x306m (NTDU99AAE5)
Table 2 "Hardware requirements" (page 16) describes the supported
hardware requirements.
Table 2

HardwareSpecification
Processor3.0 GHz
Memory2 GB DRAM
Hard Disk Drive1-80 GB SATA Disk
Network Interface Card2 1-GB Ethernet Cards
Power Supply1 power supply
Software components
The MCG 3100 software installation includes the following software
components:
•Mobile Communication Gateway (MCG) 3100—enables the clients to
access advanced collaborative IP telephony services on the enterprise
network. Using the clients, users can search the corporate directory,
manage voice mail, dial by extension number, and hold group calls
with predefined groups of users.
•
MCG 3100 Administration Server—includes the Web Console, a
Web-based tool that administrators use to start, stop, and reload
server processes, update operating parameters, monitor users, track
messaging statistics, and manage the distribution of client software.
The Administration server also includes a database of server activity.
•MCG 3100 Group Call Server—hosts ad hoc conference calls with
predefined groups of users within the enterprise network. The Group
Call server includes a database of group call activities.
Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 Installation and Upgrades
MCG 3100 Server is installed on one server—all software components
are installed on one supported COTS server. This is the nonredundant
configuration.
•MCG 3100 Server is installed on two servers—all software components
are installed on two supported COTS servers, configured identically. If
one server fails or is unavailable, the clients switch to the other server.
This is the redundant configuration.
For more information about these options, see “Nonredundant and
redundant server implementations” (page 23).
For a list of supported COTS servers, see “Hardware components” (page
16).
For more information about MCG 3100 redundant servers, see NortelMobile Communication Gateway 3100 — Administration (NN42030-600).

Installation overview
Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 Installation and Upgrades
Before you install the Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 (MCG 3100)
server software, you must perform some preinstallation configuration and
verification. To preconfigure the host server and the network enterprise
network, perform the following tasks:
•
Install the Nortel Linux operating system (OS) on the host server.
•
Verify the enterprise network setup—the Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) servers and Domain Name Server (DNS) must be
installed and started.
19
Linux base installation
MCG 3100 uses the same Linux base as Nortel Communication Server
(CS) 1000. However, during the Linux base installation for MCG 3100, you
make the following platform-specific configuration changes:
•Physical connection
Use only the eth1 physical network interface.
Nortel Mobile Communication 3100 Series Portfolio
Nortel Mobile Communication Gateway 3100 Installation and Upgrades
Configure the TLAN network interface IP to the same IP address as
10.0.0.010.255.255.255
172.16.0.0172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0192.168.255.255
the MCG 3100 and corresponding physical eth1 network interface.
To familiarize yourself with the Linux base installation procedure, see
Linux Platform Base and Applications Installation and Commissioning
(NN43001-315).
Enterprise network verification
The following requisites must be installed and configured on the enterprise
network:
•Domain Name Server (DNS)
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you program the DNS with the IP addresses of the
License Server, the primary Enterprise Communication Server (ECS), and
the alternate ECS.
To verify that DNS is functional, use the ping command and enter the
fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of a server on the network.
•Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server
