Notes:
– Most times a new licence file is also required for new MiVoice Office 400 system software.
You can also install and start up the new software without specifying the licence file. How-
ever, once you have started to use the software you will need to upload the licence file within
4 hours; otherwise the communication server will switch over to the restricted operating
mode. In this mode, only the basic functions of the communication server are available.
– Depending on communication server type, the upload operation (especially decompressing
the software package) may take some time.
– Never disconnect the communication server from the power supply during the update pro-
cess. This may prevent executable system software from being available on the communi-
cation server, and make an EUL (Emergency Upload) necessary.
– Please read the chapter “Important hints and restrictions” in the release notes to the soft-
ware to be loaded.

A detailed description of the software upload procedure with WebAdmin is available in the
online help.

the port 8080 (Example: http:\\10.100.98.43:8080).
