■ Optional encryption for data backups (see ‘‘Backup and restore data’’).
■ Support for RADIUS authentication for media gateways and P330 stack
elements using the P330 Device Manager. See ‘‘Using Device Manager to
administer G700 Media Gateway components’’.
Command syntax changes for media modules
(For S8300 and S8700 Media Servers) The syntax for using the SAT commands
for a G700 Media Gateway or S8300 Media Server has changed. In a traditional
DEFINITY system, ports are identified by the cabinet number, carrier, slot, and
port. For example: 02A0704
(For S8300 and S8700 Media Servers) Because this numbering convention does
not make sense for media modules, a new convention was developed. The
numbering convention for the media modules uses the same seven-character field
as does a traditional system, but the fields represent the media gateway number,
media module slot (V1 to V4), and port number (00 to 99 are supported; the actual
number of ports that can be specified depends on the type of media module).
Example: 001V205
In this example, the 001 represents the media gateway number, the V2 represents
the slot number (possibly V1 through V4), and 05 is the port number.
