Set Up The Tftp Server On Your Laptop Or On A Customer Pc - Avaya G700 Installation And Upgrades

6 Upgrading an Existing G700 with an S8700 (No Local Survivable Processor):
Set Up the TFTP Server on Your Laptop or on a
Customer PC
A tar.gz file, which you obtain from a CD-ROM or a website, contains new G700 software. To load this
software on a G700 Media Gateway, you must place this tar.gz file either on your laptop or on a PC
connected to the customer's LAN. Later, you will log in to the G700 and use its TFTP capability to pull the
new software from your laptop or the customer's PC. As a result, either the customer must configure a TFTP
server on a PC connected to the customer's LAN or you, the installer, must set up your laptop as a TFTP
server and later connect it to the customer's LAN.
Note: A Linux or Unix TFTP server should be used only if the customer already has an
existing one. In these cases, you download the tar.gz file to your laptop and give
it to the customer for proper placement and execution.
