Installation and Upgrades for G700 and S8300 247
December 2003
Install the New Authentication File
1Click Authentication File
2Select "Install the Authentication file I previously downloaded" and Click Install.
The system tells you the authentication is installed successfully
3Verify that the restoration of the backup files was successful by testing the craft login.
Telnet to 192.11.13.6 and login as craft using the normal craft password.
NOTE:
You may need to use the static craft password at this point. The static password will
enable you to log in to the S8300 with a direct connection to the Services port without the
ASG challenge/response. To obtain the static password, call the ASG Conversant number,
800-248-1234 or 720-444-5557 (or 877-295-0099 for Avaya Business Partners), and
follow the prompts to get the password. In addition to your credentials, you will need to
enter the customer’s Product ID or the FL or IL number.
CAUTION:
After you install new license and authentication files, be sure to run save translation. This
task saves the official passwords for the customer’s system. If you fail to perform this step,
you may be irretrievably locked out of the system later in the installation when the system
reboots.
Save Translations
CAUTION:
If the system is using IA770, do not save translations at this time. Skip to Verify Operation
on page 249. You will save translations after installing the new IA770 software.
1In the telnet session, open a SAT session.
2Log in again as craft.
3Type save translation and press Enter.
