Completing the RFA process (obtaining license and password file)
Every S8300 media server and local survivable processor (LSP) requires a current and correct
version of a license file in order to provide the expected call-processing service.
The license file specifies the features and services that are available on the S8300 media
server, such as the number of ports purchased. The license file contains a software version
number, hardware serial number, expiration date, and feature mask. The license file is
reinstalled to add or remove call-processing features. New license files may be required when
upgrade software is installed.
The Avaya authentication file contains the logins and passwords to access the S8300 media
server. This file is updated regularly by Avaya services personnel, if the customer has a
maintenance contract. All access to Communication Manager from any login is blocked unless
a valid authentication file is present on the S8300 media server.
A new license file and the Avaya authentication file may be installed independently of each
other or any other server upgrades.
