This document covers basic set up of the following Media Gateway models MG4/S, MG8/S, MG4/O,
MG8/O, MG8/SO (MG will designate any model in this series) in conjunction with the MX250 and MX30.
This document is based on MG gateways with software revision 1.9.82.306.X and MX system with
software revision 6.0.
It is assumed the reader is familiar with creating Users, Devices, Assignments, SIP Servers on the MX
system and is a current ZCSE Technician. Basic Telephony and Basic Networking is assumed as well.
Consult “Media Gateway installation Guide” for installation procedures. Consult “MG User Configuration
Guide” for description of features not present in this manual.
It is strongly recommended that the MX is configured PRIOR to integrating the Media Gateways to prevent
the IP address of the Media Gateway being blocked by the MX.
MG Gateways must be configured with Microsoft® Internet Explorer®. At this time, FireFox®, Safari® and
other internet browsers are not supported by the current revision of MG Gateway software.

2 Configure all ports on the MG
You MUST configure all ports on the MG, if you fail to configure all ports (even if
you are not using them) the MG will continue to attempt to register, this action
devices to block the IP of the MG itself.
3 MX250/30 Setup
It is recommended that the MX have a generic SIP device created for each FXS Port
that is on the MG to register against. The Device ID used in the MX will be the
phone number used on the MG for registration purposes; this configuration does
not count against any licensing, as the MX is not licensed by registration.
3.1 Create Users
Create a user for each FXS (SLT) port of the MG gateway by logging into the MX
Admin UI and navigating to Configure | Users.
MG Series Gateway Setup Manual ver 306.X (0000000272)
Create a device for each FXS/FXO port of the Gateway by navigating to Configure |
Devices in the Admin UI. Each step is outlined below. Since you are creating
Generic SIP devices no restart of the MX is needed. You will not be using the FXS
configuration portion of the MX Admin UI, as the devices connected to Media
Gateways are connected as SIP devices.
3.2.1 Create new Generic SIP Profile
Before creating devices for Gateway from the Manage Device screen click the
Profiles button, and create a new Generic SIP profile.
From the dropdown select Generic SIP device, and give the profile a unique name.

We recommend assigning users to the devices associated with FXS ports of MG
only.
4 Connecting the Computer to MG Gateway
To configure the MG Gateway, use the web interface.
Use the Ethernet cable that comes with the system to connect MG to the network
By default the MG8 uses DHCP and can accept the IP address from DHCP
automatically. If there is no DHCP server on the network, you can use factory
default IP address of 192.168.2.218. After the MG8 is started (when leds stop
flashing), it will repeat the IP address to the first off-hook user; in addition, you can
dial ## from any analog phone connected to the FXS Ports to have the MG play its
IP. If there is only FXO ports use external call and dial ## after been connected.
From the PC that is on the same network as MG8, open Internet Explorer, no other
browsers are supported at this time. Enter the gateway IP address in the Address
field (for example, 192.168.2.218). On the login page enter the gateway password
(the default password is voip, which can be changed on the page Changing
Password), and you enter the web configuration interface.

Power indicator (PWR), the light on indicates that it has
been powered.
②
Ethernet interface indicator (ETH), the light on indicates
successful connection, the light flashing indicates that data
packets are being received or sent.
③
Analog subscriber line (FXS) or analog trunk (FXO)
interface indicator, the light on indicates that it is in use.
5 Configuration of MG8
The MG8 has a small plastic structure for desktop placement; the MG8 can provide
up to 8 analog line interfaces. MG8 supports the following types of configuration:

MG Series Gateway Setup Manual ver 306.X (0000000272)
Basic settings are where you set the IP addressing and SIP Registrations settings. SIP
registration settings for the FXS/FXO port MUST be set LAST, to prevent the MX
from blocking the IP address of the MG8. If the IP address is blocked by the MX (a
syslog event will be generated) you must restart them MX to remove this block.
