54 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server
The Network Configuration Manager
The Avaya Network Configuration Manager allows you to remotely configure media gateways,
wireless gateways, and data switches, including:
● The G700, G350, G250, G250-BRI, G250-DS1, and G250-DCP Media Gateways,
including their media modules
● The C360 and C460 converged switches
● The P882 and P580 Multiservice switches, P130 Workgroup switches, and P330 switches
To use the Network Configuration Manager, the customer should have Enterprise Network
Management, an entitlement for almost all Communication Manager R3.1 customers (excluding
very small Communication Manager installations, where multiple branch offices are not in use
and would have no need for the tool).
With the Network Configuration Manager, you manage configuration files to configure and
maintain the configuration of devices in your VoIP network. The Network Configuration Manager
lets you perform the following tasks related to configuration files:
● Copy and edit configuration files for media gateways and network infrastructure switches
● Download a single configuration file to one or multiple devices
● Simultaneously download multiple configuration files to multiple devices
● Compare the content of configuration files for different devices
● Back up and restore configuration files, including scheduled backups
You can choose secure copy protocol (SCP), file transfer protocol (FTP), or trivial file transfer
protocol (TFTP) to transfer protocols for downloading, restoring, and backing up configuration
files, depending on the devices you are configuring and the capabilities of the customer’s PC
and LAN. In addition, Network Configuration Manager checks configuration files for device
applicability and will not install a configuration file to a device for which the configuration does
not apply.
