Migrating from an S8700 Media Server to an S8710
Media Server
Use these procedures to migrate an existing S8700 Media Server on Avaya Communication
Manager Release 1.x through 2.x to an S8710 Media Server on Communication Manager
Release 3.0. If the media server is on Communication Manager Release 1.x, you must upgrade
the media server to Communication Manager Release 1.3.2 before the migration. This
migration requires a new Communication Manager license file and an Avaya authentication file.
In this migration, you reuse the system files and the translation files from the S8700 Media
Servers.
These migrations include the following configurations:

processors (LSPs). You must upgrade the LSPs before the S8710 Media Server takes control.
