1036 Upgrading, Migrating, and Converting Media Servers and Gateways
What is covered in the Conversions Section
Table 20 summarizes the conversion procedures this section covers.
What is not covered in the Conversions Section
This section does not cover changes from a DEFINITY communications system to an IP-PNC
or a fiber-PNC Linux-based system. For example, changes from a ProLogix, DEFINITY One, or
an IP600 system to an IP-PNC or fiber-PNC Linux-based system are not covered in this section.
These procedures are considered to be migrations and are covered in the Migrations
section. In
some cases, however, you might need to use the procedures from both sections.
