IP Trunks with LSP

Does anyone know how to make use of IP trunks when you have an S8300 LSP in a G700 gateway? I have an S8700 multi-connect. I want to have an IP trunk from the S8300 LSP to another PBX to use as a tie line if the S8700 is lost. I can't create the IP trunk because the only valid near-end node names are the CLANs in the S8700 cabinets.
 
It makes sense that the near-end node should be the S8300 LSP processor but I can't enter it into the signaling group - it always states "Node name must be assigned to a C-LAN IP interface". On the ip-interface form I can't assign the S8300's IP address/port as a C-LAN and if I try to assign the S8300's IP address/port as 'procr' the interface information changes to the S8700's address. I'm running ACM 1.3.1 ... did this change in 2.0 perhaps?
 
Understand that in LSP mode with an S8700 as the master SPE, translations reside on the S8700 and get copied to the S8300, since the LSP looks like a media gateway until bad things happen and the S8300 wakes up to take control.

You could install an S8300 ICC on top of your S8300 LSP, then the LSP would be looking at the ICC for off line or unreacheable conditions.
