Migrating an Avaya IP600/S8100 to an S8700-Series
Media Server with IP-PNC
Use these procedures to migrate from an existing Avaya IP600/S8100 IP-port network
connectivity (PNC) system to the Avaya S8700-Series Media Servers with an IP-PNC
configuration.
You can migrate an IP600/S8100 only to an Avaya S8710 or S8720 IP-PNC configuration.
When you migrate an existing Avaya IP600/S8100, you use one TN2312BP IPSI circuit pack to
control the port network (PN). You also replace the processor circuit pack with the IPSI in the
cabinet in the A position.
This migration affects service.
Basic migration steps
To migrate from DEFINITY platforms you must:
Install the media server. If Avaya supplies an Ethernet switch and an uninterruptible power
●
supply (UPS), you also must install the switch and the UPS in the 19-inch rack. For more
information, see Quick Start for Hardware Installation: Avaya S8700-Series Media Servers
(555-245-703).
Replace the tone clock circuit pack with the IPSI circuit pack
●
Connect the media servers to the media gateways
●
Enable control of the IPSIs and switch control to the media servers
●
Complete the postmigration administration
