G450 and PRI

[copterride]

Hi,


I have HPDL360G7 media server(CM 6.x) with 7 media gateways(G450) and 2 PRI's.

1 location, 1 NR, only reason we have so many gateways is we have lot of analog phones.

I know Each PRI is connected to E1/T1 port of G450,if that's the case then i would need 7 PRI's for 7 Gateways.

Can anybody help me understand whether i will need 7 PRI for 7 gateways OR 2 PRI can be shared between 7 gateways !!!

Also do all these 7 g450's register to same media server as it is standalone duplex server?? We do not have CLAN cards so i assume G450's register to Processor ethernet.



Thanks.

The 2 PRIs you are installing can be shared between the 7 gateways, just create one trunk group and have your ARS point to it.

All of the G450s will register to the same media server and you are correct, they will register to the processor ethernet.

In reading your earlier post you were mentioning that you were going to have 300 IP stations and 500 analog stations. So for 800 stations you are only going to have 46/47 channels to make/recieve calls, does not seem like a large number, when I design a switch I usually use a rule of 10 to 1 for an administration switch where you seem to be about half that. But it will depend on your Business situation.

Thanks Tolson !

I need to create a design document with cable/wiring diagram to G450 and media server.

Can you share any design doc/application notes you may have for this solution?

How many IP addresses i will need for Primary/backup media server(duplex cm 6.x) and g450's? I assume 2 IP's(cdom and Dom0) for each media server and one IP for each G450.

Thanks
