2. Type telnet 192.11.13.6 and press Enter.

The first RP screen should display.

NOTE: If you get the login prompt instead of the RP screen

If the telnet login prompt appears instead of the RP screen, the hard drive contains
a Communication Manager software release. In this case, if you have a USB
CD-ROM drive, connect the drive to a USB port on the S8300 and insert the unity
CD. Using your browser, log in to the Maintenance Web interface (using the initial
craft login) and shut the server down:

a. Select Shutdown Server on the Maintenance Web Interface.

b. On the Shutdown Server page, select Shutdown to reboot the system.

As the server shuts down, the CD-ROM tray opens.

c. Close the tray immediately before the system reboots so that the system will

reboot from the CD-ROM.

d. After the reboot completes, telnet to 192.11.13.6 and the RP screen should

now be displayed.

If you do not have the USB CD-ROM, you cannot proceed with the upgrade
procedure described in this chapter. However, you can upgrade the Communication
Manager software using the procedure described in

Chapter 12: Manual upgrade of

an existing S8300B and G700 to R3.1

and then return to this chapter.
