Rack Mount Safety Instructions (UL)
When installing the chassis in a rack, be sure to implement the following safety
instructions recommended by Underwriters Laboratories:
•Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by
the manufacturer.
•Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation on the equipment is not compromised.
•Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
•Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might
have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
•Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips.)
¾To attach the device to a 19-inch rack, take these 2 steps:
1. Position the device in your 19-inch rack and align the left-hand and right-hand bracket holes
to holes (of your choosing) in the vertical tracks of the 19-inch rack.
2. Use standard 19-inch rack bolts (not provided) to fasten the device to the frame of the rack.
AudioCodes recommends using two additional (not supplied) rear mounting brackets to provide
added support.
Note: Users assembling the rear brackets by themselves should note the following:
•The distance between the screws on each bracket is 26.5 mm.
•To attach the brackets, use 4-40 screws with a maximal box penetration length of
3.5 mm.
¾To place the device on a 19-inch rack’s shelf, take these 2 steps:
1. Place the device on the preinstalled shelf.
2. You’re now recommended to take the optional steps of fastening the device to the frame of
the rack (as described above) while it is placed on the shelf, so preventing it from sliding
when inserting cables into connectors on the rear panel.
2.4 Cabling the Mediant 2000
The Mediant 2000 is available in many configurations, i.e., AC or DC, in the 16-trunk, 8-trunk, 4-
trunk, 2-trunk or 1-trunk device. The 16-trunk dual AC (Figure 2-4) and the 8-trunk DC (Figure

3 Configuring the Mediant 2000
The Mediant 2000 is supplied with application software already resident in its flash memory (with
factory default parameters).
Section 3.1 below describes how to assign IP addresses to the Mediant 2000, while Section 3.4
on page 20 describes how to set up the Mediant 2000 with basic parameters using a standard
Web browser (such as Microsoft TM Internet Explorer).
Note: Section 3.1 applies equally to MGCP, MEGACO, H.323 and SIP.
3.1 Assigning the Mediant 2000 IP Address
The Mediant 2000 is composed of one or two identical media gateway modules. These media
gateways are fully independent, each gateway having its own MAC and IP addresses (Table 3-1
shows the default IP addresses of the Mediant 2000). To assign an IP address to each of the
Mediant 2000 modules use one of the following methods:
•HTTP using a Web browser (refer to Section 3.1.1 below).
•BootP (refer to Section 3.1.2 on page 17).
•DHCP (refer to the Mediant 2000 User’s Manual).
•The embedded Command Line Interface (CLI) accessed via Telnet (refer to Section 3.1.3 on
page 18).
Use the ‘Reset’ button at any time to restore the Mediant 2000 networking parameters to their
factory default values (refer to Section 3.2 on page 19).
Table 3-1: Mediant 2000 Default Networking Parameters
Mediant 2000 Version Default Value

3. Access the Mediant 2000 first module’s Embedded Web Server (refer to Section 3.3 on page
19).
4. In the ‘Quick Setup’ screen, set the Mediant 2000 ‘IP Address’, ‘Subnet Mask’ and ‘Default
Gateway IP Address’ fields under ‘IP Configuration’ to correspond with your network IP
settings. If your network doesn’t feature a default gateway, enter a dummy value in the
‘Default Gateway IP Address’ field.
5. Click the Reset button and click OK in the prompt; the Mediant 2000 applies the changes
and restarts. This takes approximately 3 minutes to complete. When the Mediant 2000 has
finished restarting, the Ready and LAN LEDs on the front panel are lit green.
Tip: Record and retain the IP address and subnet mask you assign the Mediant
2000. Do the same when defining new username or password. If the
Embedded Web Server is unavailable (for example, if you’ve lost your
username and password), use the BootP/TFTP configuration utility to access
the device, “reflash” the load and reset the password (refer to the Mediant
2000 User’s Manuals for detailed information on using a BootP/TFTP
configuration utility to access the device).
6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 for the Mediant 2000 second module (if used).
7. Disconnect your PC from the Mediant 2000 or from the hub / switch (depending on the
connection method you used in step 1).
8. Reconnect the Mediant 2000 and your PC (if necessary) to the network.
9. Restore your PC’s IP address and subnet mask to what they originally were. If necessary,
restart your PC and re-access the Mediant 2000 via the Embedded Web Server with its new
assigned IP address.
3.1.2 Assigning an IP Address Using BootP
Tip 1: BootP procedure can also be performed using any standard compatible
BootP server.
Tip 2: You can also use BootP to load the auxiliary files to the Mediant 2000 (refer
to the Mediant 2000 User’s Manual).
¾To assign an IP address using BootP, take these 13 steps:
1. Open the BootP application (supplied with the Mediant 2000 software package).
2. Click on the Edit Clients icon;
the ‘Client Configuration’ screen is displayed.
3. Click on the Add New Client icon;
a client with blank parameters is displayed (Figure 3-1 on page 18).
4. In the ‘Client MAC’ field, enter the MAC address of the gateway. The MAC address is printed
on a label located on the base of the Mediant 2000.
5. Verify that the box to the right of the ‘Client MAC’ field is checked. This enables the particular
client in the BootP tool (if the client is disabled, no replies are sent to BootP requests).
6. In the ‘Client Name’ field, enter a descriptive name for this client so that it is easier to
remember which gateway the record refers to. For example, this name could refer to the
location of the gateway.
7. In the ‘IP’ field, enter the IP address you want to assign the gateway. Use the normal dotted
decimal format.

8. In the ‘Subnet’ field, enter the subnet mask you want to assign the gateway. Use the normal
dotted decimal format. Ensure that the subnet mask is correct. If the address is incorrect, the
gateway may not function until the entry is corrected and a BootP reset is applied.
9. In the ‘Gateway’ field, enter the IP address for the default gateway. If you do not know the IP
address for the default gateway, contact your network administrator.
10. Click Apply to save this entry to the list of clients.
11. Click OK; the ‘Client Configuration’ screen is closed.
12. Use the reset button (located on the Mediant 2000 front panel) to physically reset the
gateway causing it to use BootP; the Mediant 2000 changes its network parameters to the
values provided by the BootP.
13. Repeat steps 2 to 11 for the Mediant 2000 second module (if used).

3.1.3 Assigning an IP Address Using the CLI
¾To assign an IP address using the CLI, take these 7 steps:
1. Enable the Embedded Telnet Server:
¾Access the Mediant 2000 Embedded Web Server (refer to Section 3.3 on page 19).
¾Set the parameter ‘Embedded Telnet Server’ (under Advanced Configuration >
Network Settings > Application Settings) to ‘Enable (Unsecured)’.
¾Click the Reset button on the main menu bar; the Reset screen is displayed.
¾Click the Reset button in the middle of the Reset screen with the Burn option selected;
the Mediant 2000 is shut down and re-activated. A message about the waiting period is
displayed. The screen is refreshed.
2. Use a standard Telnet application to connect to the Mediant 2000 Embedded Telnet Server.
3. Login using the username (‘Admin’) and password (‘Admin’).
4. At the prompt type ‘conf’ and press enter; the configuration folder is accessed.
