Using Dhcp Addressing - Avaya S8700 Installing

Installing the Avaya™ S8700 Media Server with Avaya™ MCC1 or SCC1 Media Gateway
NOTE:
Before beginning, read this procedure to familiarize yourself with it. With DHCP
addressing there are certain sequences that need to be completed prior to a predetermined
time-out interval.
!
CAUTION:
If reusing TN2312AP circuit packs that have previously had a static address programmed,
you must erase the existing IP address before programming another one. Failure to do this
may result in serious network problems for the customer. Use the following procedure to
erase an existing IP address assignment:
1 Plug the TN2312 into the appropriate slot in the media gateway or if already plugged in,
reseat it (unplug and plug in).
2 While the letters I P are flashing on the LED display (5 seconds), press the recessed
pushbutton on the faceplate.
3 The TN2312 is now ready for a new static IP address.
NOTE:
When the IPSI circuit pack is first inserted into a carrier the faceplate LED display may
present random characters, dots, or lines. This should not last more than one second.
Ignore the display during this period.

Using DHCP addressing

For the IPSI circuit packs to get IP addresses dynamically, you must first assign the switch ID
(A through J) and the cabinet number (01 through 64) to each IPSI circuit pack.
Fully insert the TN2312 IPSI circuit pack. If necessary reseat the circuit pack to begin
1
the programming sequence. For high and critical reliability configurations make sure the
IPSI being programmed is the standby tone clock.
NOTE:
You must do the following steps within 5 seconds after inserting the circuit pack.
2 Insert a pen, golf tee, or similar object (no graphite pencil) into the recessed push button
switch.
