tion cables are not connected yet).
Under Server click Set Server Time/Timezone. Make changes as nec-
essary.
Under Server Configuration and Upgrades click Configure Server and
select IP Connect or Multi-Connect configuration, whichever is the
appropriate configuration.

upload the files from the laptop to the media server.
Click Install License and Install Authentication to install the files.
Note: The next time you log in, you will be ASG challenged.

Install New Software Release and continue through the software
installation.

software upgrade is complete.
Click Upload Files to Server (via browser) to copy the patch to the

screen. Refer to Avaya S8300 & S8700 Media Server Patching Proce-
dures available at http://avaya.com/support

Note: Installing the patch releases the media server into active service.
