Installing the Avaya™ S8700 Media Server with Avaya™ MCC1 or SCC1 Media Gateway
Complete Provisioning Plan
A provisioning plan should be completed before an installation. The plan determines an
appropriate available port circuit on the media gateway for each telephone, trunk, and
peripheral connection needed, and any auxiliary power for Basic Rate Interface (BRI) and
certain display sets.
Obtain copies of the Port Assignment Record forms (or equivalent) from the customer or
marketing representative. See
the form. These forms contain the port assignments and identify the extension numbers
(terminal number) of the telephones. Enter the jack assignments at the equipment room.
The Port Assignment Record should have the following information:
Station or trunk type or feature/service
•
•
Building location (floor/room/desk/outlet)
Extension number or trunk group and member number
•
•
Port circuit location on the media gateway for each endpoint (media
gateway/carrier/slot/circuit)
•
Route from equipment room through site/satellite closets to each endpoint
•
Auxiliary power supply, if required. (MDF, site/satellite closet, or information outlet)
