General Settings; Set Tcp/Ip Properties On Windows Systems - Avaya S8300 User Manual

General settings

On any operating system, the network settings need to reflect the following:
• TCP/IP properties. Set the laptop's TCP/IP properties as follows:
- IP address: 192.11.13.5
- Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252
• Browser settings. Configure the browser for a direct connection to the internet. Do not use proxies.
• Server address. Access the media server using the URL http://192.11.13.6
The names of the dialog boxes and buttons vary on different operating systems and browser releases. Use
your computer's help system if needed to locate the correct place to enter this information.
Note:
The S8300 Media Server uses the same access configuration as an Avaya S8100 Media Server with
CMC1 Media Gateway. If you already have a NetSwitcher profile for the S8100 Media Server
(formerly called DEFINITY One), try using that profile first before configuring a new one.

Access Procedures: Physical Connections to Media Gateways
Avaya Service technicians can use the NetSwitcher program to configure
alternate network profiles so they can easily connect to a number of different
systems. NetSwitcher configures a profile for each type of system for easy
future access without requiring you to reset TCP/IP properties or browser set-
tings manually. NetSwitcher is available from an Avaya Services CTSA.
Make a record of any IP addresses, DNS servers, or WINS entries that you
change when you configure your services computer. Unless you use the
NetSwitcher program or an equivalent, you will need to restore these entries
to connect to other networks.
