Description
If an engineer who works on the Avaya WAN, is
supporting the technical support representative during
the upgrade, ensure that the engineer has access to
the ASG Mobile tool prior to the upgrade.
Remote or on-site ASG access is affected when you
upgrade an S8xxx media server from 1.x.x to 2.x.x and
request a new authentication file.
This event happens at least one day prior to the
migration.
When you finish installing the authentication file,
Communication Manager has a password for all Avaya
logins, including craft. This password is unique to the
media server of the customer. You can use the
password the next time you log in as craft, if you
access the media server through the Services port.
You do not need an ASG challenge/response to log in
this way, even though every other means of craft
access requires an ASG challenge and response.
This unique craft password remains valid until the
password is changed by installing a new
authentication file.
