computer you want Avaya Site Administration to be installed on.

Printer port Standard PC or network printer port is required for
connecting to a printer to produce station button labels.
Network adapter Required for network access to the Avaya S8700 Media
Server, AUDIX, and other network-connected systems.
Free serial ports One free serial port capable of 9600-bps operation is
required for a connection to each serial device (UPS).
We recommend that PCs have at least a 16550A UART or
16550A UART simulator (capable of 56 kbps DTE-speed
connections). USB and internal modems should emulate
this hardware.
A second serial port is required for simultaneous
connection to AUDIX through a serial connection.
