Transfer Files from a CD or Hard Drive of
Laptop
Normally, during an upgrade, you will have the CD-ROM that contains the latest software to install. The
latest software for the S8300 has a file name that has a .tar extension and reflects the most recent load of
software (for example only, S8300-11.3-0319.1.tar). The latest update (patch) software for Communication
Manager has a .tar.gz extension and a file name that reflects the most recent load of software (for example,
03.0.110.4-4925.tar.gz).
This .tar file will also contain the most recent firmware for the G700 Media Gateway, the various media
modules, and the P330 stack processor.
Note: If you are using the Avaya Installation Wizard (AIW), the AIW performs tasks
automatically starting with this section. However, the AIW does not install and
configure an X330 Expansion module nor does it install Communication Manager
patches or perform administration on the S8700 Media Server. These tasks you
must still perform as described in this document.
1. Log in to the S8300 Web interface.
2. Choose Upload Files to Server under Miscellaneous on the left pane of the main menu.
The S8300 displays the Upload Files to Server screen.
