You must complete this stage after the cutover. However, you also can complete some parts of
this stage before the cutover such as upgrading firmware and registering the system.
None of the tasks in this stage affect service. However, you might interrupt service if you must
replace any hardware to clear the alarms.
Testing the S8700-Series configuration
In this stage you test the complete system and verify proper operation. Functional call
processing is tested, such as station-to-station calls, outgoing calls, incoming calls, and so on.
Various hardware-related testing procedures are provided. These might not be performed,
depending on whether a given piece of hardware is configured.
Perform the testing procedures after the cutover is complete and while finishing the migration.
These procedures do not affect service. However, you might interrupt service if you have to
replace any hardware to solve a problem.
Note:
Note: You now are ready to start the migration.
