Chapter 6: Converting an S8300 from LSP to ICC
(Communication Manager 2.1 or later)
This document provides a high-level list of tasks for converting an S8300B in LSP mode to
primary controller (ICC) without performing an upgrade. To complete these tasks, you will need
the following additional documents:
●
Installation and Upgrades for Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media
Server, 555-234-100. To obtain this document, go to
and
navigate to Installations, Migrations, Upgrades & Configurations; then select the
appropriate document.
●
Administrator Guide for Avaya Communication Manager, 03-300509.
●
Converting between an LSP and ICC
, which is for U.S.-based systems only. Similar
documents for non-US systems should be available from the regional web sites.
In this scenario, an S8300B, configured as an LSP, is converted to an S8300B standalone ICC
primary controller. In both modes, the S8300B is running Communication Manager release 2.1
or later and no software/firmware upgrade is performed.
The tasks include:
1. Removing the LSP from the current primary controller.
2. Updating the DHCP server alternate controller list.
3. Updating the gateway MGC list.
4. Installing IA770 messaging, if using it.
5. Setting date, time, and time zone.
6. Installing CM service pack, license, and authentication files, as needed.
7. Configuring the S8300B as an ICC.
8. Administering the new ICC and its media gateway.
9. Moving the endpoints supported by the current primary controller to the ICC.
Follow the detailed procedures in Installation and Upgrades for Avaya G700 Media Gateway
and Avaya S8300 Media Server, 555-234-100, Issue 8, April 2005, for most of the tasks in this
conversion scenario.
