Creating the pre-installation checklist
Before plugging in a 9608, 9611G, 9621G, or 9641G deskphone, verify all the following
requirements. Failure to do so prevents the deskphone from functioning properly and can
negatively impact the network. Print copies of this checklist for each server and deskphone.
Requirements for your network:
1.
The LAN uses Ethernet Category 5e cable to run the IPv4 or IPv6 version of
Internet Protocol.
2.
Your call server is updated with Avaya Aura
®
Communication Manager Release
6.0 or later. Avaya only supports 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones
running on Communication Manager 6.0 or later.
3.
Verify that the following circuit packs are installed on the switch:
• TN2602 or TN2302IP Media Processor circuit pack. Avaya recommends that
sites with a TN2302 IP Media Processor circuit pack must install a TN2602 circuit
pack to benefit from increased capacity.
• TN799C or D Control-LAN (C-LAN) circuit pack.
Important:
Release 6.0 or later requires TN799C V3 or greater C-LAN circuit pack(s). For
