Chapter 5: IP interface translations

To administer SIPI circuit packs, use a terminal emulation program to issue Communication
Manager SAT commands.
For Communication Manager terminal emulation, use a program such as Avaya Native
Configuration Manager, Avaya Terminal Emulation, or HyperTerminal.
You also can use Avaya Site Administration to issue SAT commands. To administer some of the
features in the latest release of Avaya Communication Manager, you must use the latest
version of Avaya Site Administration.
