1. Use the Network Region Wizard (from the primary controller) only to configure network regions, which includes
assigning gateways to regions.
2. The Software Update Manager, when available, is the preferred tool because it can automatically filter the
necessary firmware required from the Avaya support Web site and perform multiple gateway upgrades.
3. Use the Upgrade Tool to schedule upgrades of multiple gateways connected to a single Communication Manager
server. Use the IW on site for an upgrade of a single gateway or G700 stack. You cannot use the IW on a pre-3.0
release of Communication Manager to upgrade an S8300, S8500, or S8700/S8710 Media Server to
Communication Manager R3.1.
4. PIM is the only tool available to configure the Survivable Local Server capability on the G250 family of media
gateways.
5. Use the Upgrade Tool from the primary controller to schedule upgrades of multiple LSPs or ESSs. (The Upgrade
Tool must reside on a primary controller with Communication Manager R2.0 software or higher. Prior to running the
Upgrade Tool, a pre-upgrade service pack for CM R2.0 through R2.2 must first be installed and CM 3.1 software
must be copied over to each LSP using the Copy function within the Manage Software section of the Maintenance
Web page. Also, the LSPs and ESSs must be upgraded before upgrading the primary controller to the same
release of software.)
6. The Upgrade Tool must reside on a primary controller with Communication Manager R2.1 or higher. The Upgrade
Tool is the best option when you want to upgrade LSPs, ESSs, remote media gateways, and other devices at the
same time as the primary controller. A pre-upgrade service pack for CM R2.0 through R2.2 must first be installed
before performing an upgrade of CM.
