Configuring MGC
Configuring existing MGC with ELAN connectivity
If this is an existing MGC card with network connectivity, perform the following steps:
- Login to MGC.
- Enter the command mgcsetup
- Step through the prompts until you get to Primary CS IP
- Enter the UCx server IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.200) at this prompt
- Proceed through the rest of the prompts without any changes
- Reboot the MGC card
ldb> mgcsetup
ELAN IP : 192.168.1.210
ELAN subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
ELAN gateway IP : 192.168.1.1
Primary CS IP : 192.168.1.100 ? 192.168.1.200
Configuring a New MGC card
If this is a new MGC card with no network connectivity, perform the following steps:
- Connect to MGC card via the serial port.
- Enter the command mgcsetup to configure the MGC ELAN parameters
- Configure the UCx server IP address at Primary CS IP prompt (e.g. 192.168.1.200)
- Proceed through the rest of the prompts without any changes
- Reboot the MGC card
ldb> mgcsetup
ELAN IP : 192.168.1.210
ELAN subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
ELAN gateway IP : 192.168.1.1
Primary CS IP : 192.168.1.200
MGC Registration with UCx Server
After configuration of the MGC is complete, the card will register with the UCx Server. The MGC faceplate will display the configured superloop and shelf.
The MGCs LDB shell command mgcinfoshow will display the configured parameters, as seen in the example below:
ldb> mgcinfoshow
