Chapter 4: Server configuration
To install Avaya Vantage
™
in your telephony environment, you must configure the following servers:
• DHCP server: To dynamically assign IP addresses to the devices and provide device
configuration parameters. The DHCP server also provides the device with the address of the
SIP controller and file server it should use.
• HTTP or HTTPS file server: To download and save the software distribution package and the
46xxsettings.txt and K1xxSupgrade.txt files that include most of the device
configuration. Therefore, the file server address is the most important configuration for the
device installation.
In networks controlled by Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise, you can configure Avaya

devices. You can manually
configure Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise only when the file server can be
configured by end users.
