Copying authentication files to the LSPs
The Upgrade Tool cannot install authentication files. Therefore, copy the authentication files to a
computer that can connect to the customer’s network. From that same computer, log into the
Web pages for each LSP and use the Download Files screen to download the authentication file
(see Copying license, authentication, and post-upgrade service pack files to the S8300 hard
drive, including licenses for LSPs on page 319).
Copying the Communication Manager software and media
gateway firmware to a TFTP or HTTP server
If you want to remotely copy Communication Manager software to LSPs without physically
inserting the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of each LSP, you must post the software on the
TFTP or HTTP server you set up earlier. To post the software, use whatever tools are available
in the customer’s network for file transfer.
If there are media gateway firmware files that you are installing that are more recent than those
on the Software CD-ROM, post these individual files on a TFTP server. This TFTP server can
be the /tftpboot directory of an S8300 Media Server.
Copying the Communication Manager software and media
gateway firmware to the server
Normally, during an upgrade of the primary controller, you will have the Communication
Manager Software Distribution CD-ROM that contains the latest software to install. The latest
software for the S8300 has a file name that reflects the most recent load of software (For
example only, 013-01.0.640.1). The latest service pack software for Communication Manager
also reflects the most recent load of software (for example only, 03.1-01.0.640.0).
These files also contain the most recent firmware for the G700 Media Gateway, the various
media modules, and the P330 Stack Processor.
