Basic migration steps
Issue 2.1 June 2006 799
Migrating a DEFINITY ONE/S8100 to an S8700-Series
Media Server with IP-PNC
Use these procedures to migrate from an existing DEFINITY ONE/S8100 system to the Avaya
S8700-Series Media Servers with an IP-port network connectivity (PNC) configuration.
You can migrate only a DEFINITY ONE/S8100 to an Avaya S8710 or S8720 Media Server
IP-PNC configuration.
To migrate an existing DEFINITY ONE/S8100, you use one TN2312BP IPSI circuit pack to
control the port network (PN). You also must replace the processor circuit pack with the IPSI.
This migration affects service.
Basic migration steps
To migrate from DEFINITY platforms:
● Install the media servers. If Avaya supplies an Ethernet switch(es) and an uninterruptible
power supplies (UPSs), you also must install the switch and the UPS in the 4-post, 19-inch
rack. For more information, see Quick Start for Hardware Installation: Avaya S8700-Series
Media Server (555-245-703).
● Replace the tone clock circuit pack with the IPSI circuit pack
● Move circuit packs to the G650 Media Gateway
● Connect the media servers to the media gateways
● Enable control of the IPSIs and switch control to the media servers
● Complete the postmigration administration
