50 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server
The Software Update Manager is preferable to the Upgrade Tool for simultaneously upgrading
firmware on multiple G700, G350, G250, G250-BRI, G250-DS1, and G250-DCP Media
Gateways. The Software Update Manager, which can be run manually or scheduled to run, can
also perform, on networks with single or multiple Communication Manager servers, firmware
upgrades on data devices and perform both of the following two key functions:

The Upgrade Tool
The Upgrade Tool allows you to schedule automatic upgrades of Enterprise Survivable
Processors (ESSs), Local Survivable Processors (LSPs), and G350 and G700 Media Gateways
from the primary controller. The primary controller can be an S8300, S8400, S8500, S8500B,
S8700, S8710, or an S8720 Media Server. An ESS can be an S8500, S8500B, S8700, S8710,
or S8720 Media Server. An LSP can be an S8300, S8500, or S8500B Media Server. The
Upgrade Tool also allows you to upgrade the primary controller itself.
