Chapter 1: Migrating Legacy Platforms To The Avaya S8700 Or S8710 Media Server; Migrating From Existing Definity And Linux Platforms - Avaya S8700 Series Manual

Chapter 1: Migrating legacy platforms to the Avaya
This section provides information on

Migrating from existing DEFINITY and Linux platforms

Migrating a dedicated control network to a nondedicated control network
Upgrading a TN2312AP to a TN2312BP IP Server Interface circuit pack
Migrating from existing DEFINITY and Linux platforms
These procedures are for migrating from existing DEFINITY and Linux platforms to the Avaya
S8700 or S8710 Media Server configuration. The S8700 or S8710 Media Server can be either a
Multi-Connect configuration or an IP-Connect configuration. The migration procedures differ
significantly because in the IP-Connect configuration, few of the old cabinets can be reused
after the migration.
The existing DEFINITY systems that can migrate to an S8700 or S8710 are:
To a Multi-Connect configuration:
DEFINITY ECS R in a Multicarrier Cabinet (MCC)
DEFINITY ECS SI in a Single Carrier Cabinet (SCC) or Multicarrier Cabinet (MCC)
To an IP-Connect configuration:
Avaya IP600 (S8100) in a G600
DEFINITY ONE (S8100) in a Compact Modular Cabinet (CMC)
DEFINITY ECS CSI in a CMC
DEFINITY ECS R in an MCC (cabinet cannot be reused)
DEFINITY ECS SI in an SCC or MCC (cabinet cannot be reused)
The existing Linux systems that can migrate to an S8700 or S8710 are:
S8500
S8700 IP-Connect
S8700 Multi-Connect
The following tasks are included in this migration procedure:
