About software distribution packages

Important:
For any new software release, be sure to download the latest software distribution package
and read any Product Support Notices (PSNs) associated with the new release. Both are
available on the Avaya support Web site at http:// www.avaya.com/support.
As of H.323 software Release 6.0 Software Distribution Packages containing the files needed
to operate the 9600 Series IP Deskphones are packaged together in either a Zip format or an
RPM/Tar format distribution package. You download the package appropriate to your operating
environment to your file server from the Avaya support Web site at:
support based on the protocol you are using (H.323 or SIP) for all or the majority of your
deskphones.
H.323 software distribution packages contain:
• one or more software files;
• one upgrade file (96x1Hupgrade.txt);
• all of the display text language files;
• a file named "av_prca_pem_2033.txt" that contains a copy of the Avaya Product Root
Certificate Authority certificate in PEM format that may be downloaded to telephones
based on the value of the TRUSTCERTS parameter;
• file named "release.xml" that is used by the Avaya Software Update Manager
application..
Release 6.0 software distribution packages in Zip format also contain a signatures directory
containing signature files and a certificate file to be used by the Avaya file server application
on the Utility server. Customers using their own (non-Avaya) HTTP server can ignore or delete
this directory.
Note:
The H.323 software Release 6.0 upgrade script file is not the same upgrade script file used
for the 9600 Series IP Deskphones running software Release 3.1.
