2 Installing Hardware for the G700 Media Gateway and S8300 Media Server: Getting Started

Use the Planning Documentation

To guide you in your preparations for the installation, use the Installer's Checklists (see
Checklists) to verify that you have the tools, software, and information that you need to install the G700.
The planning documentation will provide you with information about:
• What equipment you will be installing
• What kind of system you will be integrating
• Whom to contact on site about delivery, system questions, or network concerns
• Whom to contact at your home office in case of questions
• Whether you need a special pass or an escort
• How to gain entrance to the installation location if it is locked
• Where to install equipment
• Where to find a telephone near the installation location

SSO Authentication Login

You should obtain a personal Single Sign-On (SSO) for Remote Feature Activation (RFA) website
authentication login before going to the site for installation. You must complete the authentication process
before you can be assigned an SSO authentication login.
As a first-time user:
• Business Partners should point their browsers to the Business Partner portal option sales_market,
services-voice, training tools and procedures to select RFA (or go directly to:
rfa.avaya.com).
• Associates should point their browsers to the Avaya Associate portal (or go directly to:
rfa.avaya.com).
• Contractors should point their browsers to Avaya.com (or go directly to:
From that point, log into SSO and complete the process to obtain your personal login.

Site Verification

A pre-installation site inspection allows you to verify that the site requirements have been met for
adequate environmental conditions, power and grounding availability, safety, and security conditions.
If you find discrepancies between the specifications necessary for proper installation of equipment
and the conditions on site, contact your Project Manager before proceeding with the installation.

Network Integration

Integration into the customer's network will require coordination with the network manager and the
planning and implementation personnel. They will ascertain the customer's need for DHCP service
and the intended network configuration and applications. In addition, Avaya offers Network
Readiness services to assist in evaluating and preparing the network for all configurations.
The Project Manager will provide information to be used by the installers. The documentation must
include dial plans and other telephony information, as well as IP addresses, IP masks, and other
network information. This information will be specific to each customer. To install the solution in an
efficient manner, you must collect and organize this information before going to the site.
