Hardware description
Media Gateway/Media Gateway Expansion
The Media Gateway and Media Gateway Expansion contain physical card
slots, numbered 1 to 10. When configuring the system, the physical card
slot numbers must be transposed to logical card slot numbers. For example,
to configure a card physically located in slot two of the Media Gateway one,
use logical slot 12. To configure a card physically located in slot two of the
Media Gateway two, use logical Slot 22.
Table 72 "Media Gateway and Media Gateway Expansion slot assignments"
(page 197)
maps physical card slot numbers to logical card numbers for the
Media Gateway and Media Gateway Expansion and reflects added support
for the Media Gateway and Media Gateway Expansion physical card slot 4.
