Components of the Cisco Business Edition 3000 System For MCS78901-C1, you can create an internal gateway during the First Time Setup using the Cisco Business Edition 3000 First Time Setup Wizard. For the Cisco MCS7890-C1 gateway, you can configure the general settings, such as the Media Resource IP address and the hostname. The settings that you configure for the gateway allows the gateway, the Cisco Business Edition 3000 server, and the phones to interact with each other for calls that go through the PSTN connection. Note Ensure that you retain minimum of one T1/E1 PSTN connection configured with the internal gateway. The media transcoding and conferencing will not work properly if all the internal gateway connections are deleted. Ensure that you assign a static IP address for the Cisco MCS7890-C1 internal gateway. However, there is no such restriction of a static IP address for ISR2901 gateways. If you plan to use DHCP, see the Best Practices for Using DHCP for Acquiring IP Addresses, on page 32. With Release 8.6.4 and later, you can associate each gateway with a site. However, the internal gateway, by default, is always associated with the central site of the system and cannot be modified. You can change the associated site for the gateway by editing the settings on the Connections > Device page using the Cisco Business Edition 3000 Administrative Interface. You can associate the gateways with sites for the following PSTN connections: • E1 PRI • T1 PRI • T1 CAS • SIP Trunk • SPA8800 (FXO) Note The external gateways do not support E1 R2 connection type. Therefore, the E1 R2 connections are always associated with the internal gateway. You can configure the gateway for Cisco Business Edition 3000 by using one of the following methods: • Through the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file in the Cisco Business Edition 3000 First Time Setup Wizard (for initial deployment). • On the Gateway page in the Cisco Business Edition 3000 First Time Setup Wizard (during initial deployment if you do not use the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file). • Under Connections > PSTN Connections > Add PSTN Connection > Connection Type > Device > Device > Add Device in Cisco Business Edition 3000 Administrative Interface (after initial deployment). Tip After you add the Cisco ISR2901 gateway configuration to Cisco Business Edition 3000, you must update the gateway with the appropriate CLI commands. See Devices Settings, on page 215.

For MCS78901-C1, you can create an internal gateway during the First Time Setup using the Cisco Business
Edition 3000 First Time Setup Wizard.
For the Cisco MCS7890-C1 gateway, you can configure the general settings, such as the Media Resource IP
address and the hostname. The settings that you configure for the gateway allows the gateway, the Cisco
Business Edition 3000 server, and the phones to interact with each other for calls that go through the PSTN
connection.
Ensure that you retain minimum of one T1/E1 PSTN connection configured with the internal gateway.
The media transcoding and conferencing will not work properly if all the internal gateway connections
are deleted.
Note
Ensure that you assign a static IP address for the Cisco MCS7890-C1 internal gateway. However, there is no
such restriction of a static IP address for ISR2901 gateways. If you plan to use DHCP, see the
Best Practices
for Using DHCP for Acquiring IP Addresses, on page 32
.
With Release 8.6.4 and later, you can associate each gateway with a site. However, the internal gateway, by
default, is always associated with the central site of the system and cannot be modified. You can change the
associated site for the gateway by editing the settings on the
Connections > Device
page using the Cisco
Business Edition 3000 Administrative Interface.
You can associate the gateways with sites for the following PSTN connections:
• E1 PRI
• T1 PRI
• T1 CAS
• SIP Trunk
• SPA8800 (FXO)
The external gateways do not support E1 R2 connection type. Therefore, the E1 R2 connections are always
associated with the internal gateway.
Note
You can configure the gateway for Cisco Business Edition 3000 by using one of the following methods:
• Through the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file in the Cisco Business Edition 3000 First Time
Setup Wizard (for initial deployment).
• On the Gateway page in the Cisco Business Edition 3000 First Time Setup Wizard (during initial
deployment if you do not use the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file).
• Under
Connections
>
PSTN Connections
>
Add PSTN Connection
>
Connection Type
>
Device
>
Device
>
Add Device
in Cisco Business Edition 3000 Administrative Interface (after initial deployment).
After you add the Cisco ISR2901 gateway configuration to Cisco Business Edition 3000, you must update
the gateway with the appropriate CLI commands. See
Devices Settings, on page 215
.
