Installing and Configuring the Avaya S8400 Media Server February 2006 7
Chapter 1: Introduction
To configure the media server, use the Avaya Installation Wizard. To configure gateways and
other hardware components, use two administration interfaces:
● Maintenance Web Interface
● Command line interface, directly through, secure shell (SSH), telnet, or a terminal
emulation program such as Avaya Native Configuration Manager.
You are not required to install the media server before the port networks (media gateways);
however, the license file allows only 30 minutes to "see" the administered and connected IP
Interface (SIPI) circuit packs.
