Initial System Configuration
The MGC-50/MGC-100 requires basic configuration before you can start 
running conferences.
Initial IP Configuration
The system is shipped with a default IP address: 129.254.4.8. Ordinarily, 
you need to change the MCU’s default IP address to the IP address 
appropriate for the site's LAN. This section describes how to modify it using 
a monitor and terminal to connect directly to the MCU. 
To modify the MCU default IP address to the site’s IP address:
1.
Remove the Main Control Module cover.
