Upgrading firmware on the IPSIs and SIPIs
On occasion new firmware becomes available for the Internet Protocol Server Interface (IPSI)
circuit packs (TN2312AP/BP) and S8400 IP Interface (SIPI) circuit packs (TN8412AP). Both
types of circuit pack must have the most current firmware before the upgrading the software on
the Avaya media server.
!
Important:
Important: All information that follows applies to the TN8412AP as well as the TN2312AP/
BP circuit packs.
Note:
Note: You can download firmware for a TN2312BP to a TN2312AP IPSI circuit pack,
though environmental maintenance is unavailable on the TN2312AP.
You can download firmware to one or more TN2312BP IPSI circuit pack from either the active or
the standby media server. The process only requires IP connectivity to the IPSIs, which both
media servers have.
After the firmware download completes and the IPSI resets, the IPSI automatically activates the
new firmware. This activation occurs regardless of how the IPSI reset was started. The IPSI can
be initiated as a scheduled event, by demand, or spontaneously by system software. You can
schedule the firmware activation with the Activate IPSI Upgrade screen. However, the new
firmware might activate earlier if the IPSI is reset for other reasons.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION: Ensure that you want to upgrade the IPSI firmware before you start the
download. Once you have successfully downloaded the new firmware into an
IPSI, you cannot cancel the upgrade.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION: If you are a customer administrator, you might be required to access the
Download Center Web site in order to download firmware. For instructions on
setting up access to the Download Center, access http://support.avaya.com
