Conversion Tasks
Issue 2.1 June 2006 1065
3. Check the firmware version in the Vintage column. If the version is earlier than the latest
version that is available on the Avaya Support web site, you must upgrade the TN799DP
firmware.
4. To open the IP Node Names screen, enter change node-names ip and then enter the
node names and the IP addresses for the TN799DPs.
5. For each new TN799DP circuit pack, enter add ip-interface UUCSS to open the IP
Interfaces screen.
Complete each field with the information for this TN799DP.
Note:
Note: If you do not have a gateway IP address, leave the Gateway Address field
blank.
6. To display the Data Module screen, enter add data-module next.
Enter ethernet in the Type field and complete the rest of the fields on the screen.
7. To test connectivity to the IP endpoints through each TN799DP, enter ping ip-address
ipadress board UUCSS, where ipaddress is the IP address of an IP endpoint that is
on the same subnetwork as the TN799DP. UUCSS is the cabinet, carrier, and slot location of
the TN799DP.
8. Repeat step 8
for another IP endpoint on a different subnet.
Upgrading firmware on the new circuit packs
The IPSI, the media processor, and the CLAN circuit packs that you added must have the latest
available firmware installed. Check the firmware version that is installed on each circuit pack
and compare with the latest version that is available on the Avaya Support Web site. If the
circuit pack does not have the latest version installed, you must upgrade the firmware on that
circuit pack. As part of the presite tasks, you copied the latest firmware to your laptop. If you did
not copy the firmware, you must download the latest firmware files from the Avaya Support Web
site at http://support.avaya.com
.
