Migrating legacy platforms to the Avaya S8700 or S8710 Media Server
S8700 IP
About 2 weeks before the migration, freeze the translations.
For SI, CSI, and S8100, collect the translation locally via a spare flash card and contact the
STS scheduling desk at 720-444-9418 for information on where and how to send the
translations.
STS then updates the translations to the latest version; this process may take two weeks.
STS returns the translation reports and translation files to the project manager by email who
sends them to the field technician.
Verify that a copy of the existing translations exists so they can be re-entered later (R, SI)
Find out which adapters and cables are reusable. The following items are not reusable:
982LS Current Limiter (CURL) for an SI; must replace with larger CFY1B CURL
C-LAN 259A adapter; must use adapter for IP Media Processor for 100 Mbps speed
CAT3 cable used with C-LAN; must use CAT5 or better for 100 Mbps speed.
Verify that the Services laptop has the right hardware and software. See Installing and
Configuring the Avaya S8700 Series Media Servers (03-300145) for the list of computer
specifications.
Verify that you have the required, customer-provided network information in hand. See the
filled-out Electronic Preinstallation Worksheet (EPW).

Check the Minimum Vintage Table to make sure that all existing circuit packs work with the
new system. Go to the Hardware and Software Compatibility Matrix
incoming/Up1cku9/tsoweb/media/minhardwarevintages.pdf).
Replace any TN799B/C C-LAN circuit pack with TN799DP circuit pack. Also, replace the
259A adapter and CAT3 cable with the cable extender adapter (Comcode 848525887) and
CAT5 or better cable.
Rerecord the announcements on the TN750, TN750B, and TN750C Announcement circuit
packs to work with the TN2501 Voice Announcement over LAN (VAL) circuit packs.
Replace any TN766 or TN570 EI circuit packs with TN570B, vintage 7, or later circuit
packs.
Replace any TN775/B/C maintenance circuit packs with TN775D circuit packs in any
EPNs that will have an IPSI.
Verify that you have the CD with the current software and firmware. This is what you use to
install the software on the media server and upgrade the firmware.
