702 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server

Restoring the 4600-series phone configuration file, if any

If you copied a 4600-series phone configuration file to the /var/home/ftp/pub directory prior to
the upgrade, you should restore it after the upgrade. However, before you restore the file, be
sure you have downloaded the appropriate IP phone firmware.

1. At the Linux command line, type cd ~ftp/pub, and press Enter.

2. At the prompt, type cp 46xxsettings.txt /tftpboot, and press Enter.

The 4600-series phone settings file is now restored to the /tftpboot directory.
