Terminology
●
System — a general term encompassing all references to the Avaya servers running
Avaya Communication Manager.
●
Circuit pack codes (for example, TN780 or TN2182B) are shown with the minimum
acceptable alphabetic suffix (like the “B” in the code TN2182B).
Generally, an alphabetic suffix higher than that shown is also acceptable. However, not
every vintage of either the minimum suffix or a higher suffix code is necessarily acceptable.
A suffix of “P” means that firmware can be downloaded to that circuit pack.
●
ASAI — a term synonymous with the newer CallVisor ASAI.
●
UUCSS — a code that refers to a circuit pack address in cabinet-carrier-slot order.
nnnVxx is the code that refers to a media module address in gateway-V-slot order.
Recent terminology changes that are important to note include:
●
Avaya Communication Manager — the application that provides call control and the Avaya
telephony feature set.
This application was referred to as MultiVantage Software or as Avaya Call Processing
(ACP) in previous releases. The term Multivantage is still used in some CLI commands and
in the Web interface. In most of these cases, it is synonymous with Communication
Manager.
●
Service pack — a software update.
This term was often referred to as a patch or update in previous releases. The terms update
and patch are still used in some CLI commands and in the Web interface. In most of these
cases, they are synonymous with service pack.
