Avaya Media Gateway G700 Manuale Utente

6. Save this file to your laptop. 

7. Follow the instructions in the Readme file to install the GIW.

A tar.gz file, which you obtain from a CD-ROM or a website, contains new G700 firmware. To 
load the firmware on a G700 Media Gateway, you must place this tar.gz file on a TFTP server 
that is connected to the customer’s LAN. The TFTP server can be a customer computer or it 
can be your laptop if you have arranged with the customer to connect your laptop to the LAN.

Note:

A Linux or Unix TFTP server should be used only if the customer already has an 
existing one. In these cases, you download the tar.gz file to your laptop and give 
it to the customer for proper placement and execution.

To obtain the TFTP server software and install it, see 

.

To install new firmware for the G700 processors and the media modules, you first need to move 
the new firmware files to a directory on the TFTP server. The installation program reads the new 
firmware files from this directory on the TFTP server.

Perform one of the two procedures in this section, depending on whether you have a bundled 
tar.gz file on a CD or wish to download individual firmware files from the Avaya Support website.

Note:

The sequence of links on the website may be somewhat different than described
