Chapter 1: Introduction

Installing Expanded Meet-me Conferencing

If you install an S8500B Media Server to run the Expanded Meet-me Conferencing (EMMC)
application, follow the installation instructions in this document up to and including
Avaya Communication Manager
Expanded Meet-me Conferencing (EMMC) (04-300527) to complete the installation of the
EMMC. The two CD-ROMs EMMC Software Disk 1 and EMMC Software Disk 2 contain the
EMMC software.

Configuring the SAMP

The Server Availability Management Processor (SAMP) circuit card is installed at the factory
with Avaya defaults, but you must configure the SAMP to fit your specific installation. The Avaya
Installation Wizard automatically administers the SAMP.

Configuring the media server

Use the Avaya Installation Wizard to configure the media server. You must have the completed
Electronic Preinstallation Worksheet (EPW) that provides the information that you need to
configure the components of the customer network. Use the Avaya Installation Wizard to install
the license file and the Avaya authentication file after you install the software.

Configuring the IPSI circuit packs

When you configure the media server or both media servers in a duplicated system, the Avaya
Installation Wizard installs the license file. You must configure the IPSI circuit packs within 30
minutes after you install the license file.

Installing and connecting the media gateways

Install and connect the media gateways before, in parallel with, or after you install and configure
the media server complex. You cannot program the IPSI circuit packs unless you first turn on
the power to the media gateways.
