ABSTRACT
Many multi-location enterprises have telecommunications equipment from
vendors that do not provide a gentle migration path to IP converged platforms.
Avaya’s Enterprise Class IP Solutions (ECLIPS) enable a gradual adoption of
IP technology for Third-party PBXs and enables the adoption of the value-
added capabilities of Avaya’s MultiVantage™ Software while providing a
platform to host future applications that will further enhance the enterprise’s
operations.
Following the instructions in these Application Notes facilitates the Gentle-
Migration of a Siemens Hicom 300 PBX to the Avaya ECLIPS platform running
the Avaya MultiVantage Software for call processing. A minimal amount of
new hardware is needed to complete the migration including the Avaya™
S8300 Media Server, the Avaya™ G700 Media Gateway, Avaya™ IP
telephones and the new Avaya™ GUI administration tools.
This solution’s return on investment (ROI) is very high because it does not
require a fork-lift removal of existing hardware, capitalizes on existing phone
assets and the users’ knowledge of the existing user interface, and allows the
enterprise to migrate only those users who can best utilize the productivity
enhancing features of the Avaya MultiVantage Software. The platform can
expand to accommodate the entire enterprise’s organization over time at a
pace the customer dictates.
