Avaya Communication Server 1000E Upgrade
Commissioning (NN43001-313) and Network Routing Service
Fundamentals (NN43001-130).
System expansions and additional installations require additional time. For
more information, see Avaya Communication Server 1000E Installation and
Commissioning (NN43041-310).
Upgrade and installation times depend on the following criteria:
• number and availability of technicians
• familiarity with Avaya Communication Server 1000E
• physical location of hardware components
• amount of hardware you replace or upgrade
• access to the external Domain Name System (DNS) servers to resolve
Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN)
• access to the upgrade media (DVD, Compact Flash, or USB)
• network capable of routing between ELAN and TLAN networks
• interoperability products (Contact Center, CallPilot, Symposium (5.0),
OCS, HMS400, MCS 5100, NMC5.0/MAS 5.1)
Element Manager (EM) is an optional software component you can deploy on
a Signaling Server. You must configure at least one Signaling Server with EM
to allow for system management. You can access EM from the Avaya Unified
Communication Management (UCM) centralized management server.
EM increases the speed and efficiency of system management by organizing
parameters in logical groups, where single Web pages provide access to
information that was traditionally spread across multiple overlays. The ability
of EM to hide or show information helps you to focus on specific information,
avoiding the distraction of multiple parameters.
