Introduction
Customers with an Avaya Communication Server 1000M installed base can re-configure existing
satellite Small Systems to function as Branch Offices. This configuration allows customers to
incorporate systems that were previously stand-alone into a Branch Office network.
Important:
This section describes how to upgrade an Avaya Communication Server 1000 Small System
into a Survivable MG 1000E.
Where no main office exists, one office can be configured as the main office, and the others
converted to Branch Offices. Alternatively, if a main office already exists, each of the other offices
can be converted to a Branch Office and associated with that main office. Therefore, customers with
a number of Small Systems can obtain the advantages of the Branch Office feature without
replacing their existing hardware.
Once a Small System has been converted to a Branch Office, it cannot revert directly back to a
stand-alone system.
Requirements
Any system can be configured as a Main Office, as listed in
page 37.
