CAUTION:
CAUTION: If the server has a Release 1.x field load other than those listed in the table, do
not use this section to upgrade the server. You must escalate.
Upgrade of LSPs and media gateways, if being used
Note:
Note: If the customer has no H.248 media gateways or no local survivable processors
(LSPs), skip these tasks and go to Connecting to the active media server
on
page 151.
You must upgrade Communication Manager on the S8300 and S8500 LSPs before you
upgrade Communication Manager on the primary controller. If the configuration uses G250,
G350, or G700 Media Gateways, you must upgrade them to the latest firmware. If the media
server supports ESSs, you must upgrade the ESSs before you upgrade the primary controller.
The correct order is:
1. If the system includes one or more LSPs, upgrade Communication Manager on the S8300
or S8500 LSP to the latest version.
2. Upgrade the firmware on the media gateway and the media modules to the latest version.
3. If using ESSs, upgrade Communication Manager on the S8500 or S8700-series ESS to the
latest version.
4. Upgrade Communication Manager on the S8500 or S8700-series primary controller to the
latest version.
