Defected Dead on Arrival media gateway.
From the media gateway CLI, there were Core and Hardware alarms on it:
G450-B-003(super)# show faults
CURRENTLY ACTIVE FAULTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- VoIP Faults --
+ Hardware failure, mmid = v0, 10/24-16:41:38.00
+ DSP Failure, mmid = v0, 10/24-16:41:38.00
+ CORE Failure, mmid = v0, 10/24-16:41:38.00
Current Alarm Indications, ALM LED is on
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ MGP VOIP Failure
Done!
Tried the following to overcome and resolve the alarms on the MG, but with no luck:
1- Unplug the power cable, remove the power supply, re-insert it, then plug the power cable again. Run show faults on the gateway. If that doesn’t solve the issue, go to step 2
2- Unplug the power cable, remove the main motherboard of the Gateway, re-insert it, then plug the power cable again. Run show faults on the gateway.
