Avaya S8100 User Manual

Manually set S8100’s customer-related information (alternative to ART)

If the serial-number mismatch occurs because of a processor swap out, the serial number of the system’s 
processor no longer matches the license file’s serial number:

Normal call processing continues.

The system enters license-error mode.

A major alarm is sent.

The 6-day countdown timer starts. – Replace the old processor or install a new license file within 
6 days.

The installation script downloaded from the ART web site normally configures every system parameter. 
Use the procedure in this section only if the customer has a maintenance contract and an installation 
script’s file was not installed in the previous procedure, 

 on page 168.

Rebooting is required for these changes to take effect. To avoid multiple rebooting, set 
every customer-related parameter and license file installation before rebooting the system.

The customer-related parameters configured by this procedure are: 1) RAS IP address, 2) product ID 
(definity and audix), 3) alarm-destination number, and 4) alarm origination.

To connect the system to the modem, you need to get the RAS IP address from the registration group at 
the time of License file generation. The recommended procedure is:

Telnet to the S8100 from the laptop.

Go to the "bash" shell from LAC by typing "bash".

Use the “setip” command to set the IP addresses. The format is:

setip ras=<RAS IP Address> (for example, setip ras=198.152.30.15)

This completes the procedure to set the RAS IP addresses.

Instead of using the setip command, you could use the following alternative procedure:

Connect to the S8100 through the web interface. This is done by typing http://192.11.13.6 on the Internet 
Explorer with proxy server turned OFF. Login as "lucent3" and password "lucent3".

Go to the Administer system, which pops up the Screen to administer the system. Select the 
Terminal server option on the screen. (If you receive error messages when starting a Terminal 
Server session, click OK for each error message.) Login as "lucent3" and password "lucent3".

Select the Network Connections on the S8100 desktop and change the IP address on the incoming 
connections with the RAS IP address.
