Table 2: What each wizard does for you
If you need to:
Install new or upgrade
existing S8300, S8500 or
S8700/S8710 Media
Servers, including:
The G350 or G700
●
that contains an
S8300
Other G700s in the
●
stack
G350/G700 media
●
modules
Then use:
The Avaya Installation Wizard (IW) on site, with a
laptop connection to the Services port on the media
server.
NOTE: Since the source files for an upgrade are large,
the IW requires that these source files be accessible (to
the media server running the IW) over a high-bandwidth
connection. The files could be on the media server's
hard drive (ftp/pub directory), on a CD-ROM drive
connected to the media server, or on the CD-ROM drive
or hard drive on a technician's laptop directly connected
to the media server. If the source files are available on
one of these media, you could use the IW from a remote
location using a dialup PPP connection to the media
server (with modem enabled) running the IW.
This wizard installs new (or upgrades existing) software
on media servers and performs the initial configuration.
It upgrades firmware on new or existing media gateway
processors and media modules.
You will also use the Electronic Pre-installation
Worksheet, which you get from your project manager.
For the S8300/G700, you may also use the Name and
Number List and the Custom Template with the wizard
for more comprehensive custom installations.
