Manual upgrade of an existing S8300B and G700 to S8300C with R4.0
692 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server
For example, the CD may contain a file mm760v60.fdl, but the most recent firmware available
on the Avaya Web site is mm760v65.fdl. In this case, download the mm760v65.fdl file from the
Web site for installation instead of installing the file from the CD. As another example, the CD
may contain the mgp_25_23_0.bin media gateway file, and the Avaya Web site also contains
mgp_25_23_0.bin. In this case, you could use the firmware from the CD because the versions
of the files are the same.
