Copying license, authentication, and post-upgrade service pack files
to the S8300 hard drive (from your laptop)
Skip to Copying the software and firmware files to the server on page 689 if you are not
installing a new license or password file.
For an upgrade, you need to install a license file when:
● Upgrading to a new major release of Communication Manager (for example, R2.x to R3.x
or R3.0 to R3.1)
● Changing the feature set
Note:
Note: If the S8300 is already set up for remote access, Avaya services personnel can
copy new license and authentication files directly into the FTP directory on the
server. Avaya personnel will notify you when the new files are in place as agreed
(for example, by telephone or E-mail). After they are loaded into the FTP
directory, install them using the License File and Authentication File screens
from the S8300 main menu web-page.
