General Software / Firmware Compatibility Guidelines The G350 & G700 Media Gateway Media Modules and embedded P330 Ethernet switching system, various circuit packs, and several endpoints are designed to allow remote firmware upgrades once they’ve been installed in the field. Furthermore, the S8300, S8500, S8700, and HP ProLiant Media Servers allow Communication Manager software to be updated via downloadable software updates (formerly known as super-patches).
New versions of firmware for media modules, circuit packs, and endpoints continue to be developed and become available on the support web pages on an ongoing basis. New versions of firmware usually contain support for new functionality as well as fixes for known issues with previous firmware vintages. Therefore, it is desirable to update firmware as new vintages become available. However, it is not required, especially if the system is experiencing no problems on the current version of firmware and new functionality is not desired. Furthermore, there are firmware compatibility issues on Media Gateways. Reference the Media Gateway Firmware, LSPSoftware, and Primary Server Software Compatibility section for additional details.
Whenever updating vintages of firmware, it is extremely important to read the readme file associated with the firmware vintage. The readme files document any known caveats or issues with existing Communication Manager software loads. While the general rule is that the latest firmware is always backwards compatible with older Communication Manager software releases, there are sometimes exceptions, and these exceptions, when known, are documented in the readme files. There are known backward compatibility exceptions where Media Gateways and LSPs are concerned. Reference the Media Gateway Firmware, LSP Software, and Primary ServerSoftware Compatibility section for additional details.
For the S8300 Media Server, the hard drive will be replicated with software and firmware from the factory. Be aware that the Communication Manager software and firmware contained on the S8300 hard drive might be out-of-date. During initial installation of the S8300, the server software and gateway firmware should be checked and verified using the Software/Firmware Compatibility Matrix section contained in this document.
Additionally, for the S8300, S8500, S8700, and HP ProLiant Media Servers the latest software update (formerly known as super-patch) should be applied. For additional information see the Software Update (formerly super-patch) Compatibility section contained in this document.

Communication Manager 2.0 Software & Firmware Compatibility Matrix Version 1.0 – December 8, 2003
Issues Specific to release 2.0
Product Correction Notices for 2.0
For Communication Manager 2.0, new vintages of firmware are handled via Product Correction Notices (PCN). Product Correction Notices contain important information about the software update and allow for automated notification via e-mail when new vintages of firmware become available. See section Registering For AutomaticE-mail Notification of Software & Firmware Updates for instructions on how to register for automatic e-mail notifications of new Product Correction Notices.
New Installations for 2.0
From December 8th 2003 until February 2004 the upgrade/installation/migration documentation that initially ships with the media servers is out-of-date. Starting in February, the documentation shipping with the servers will be up-to-date. Therefore, prior to February 2004 the up-to-date documentation will be on support.avaya.com and should be used/referenced at the following navigation path:Enter http://support.avaya.com in a web browser.Click on Product DocumentationClick on Communication Systems in the list of links on the leftClick on 2.0 under the media server of choice (e.g., S8700 Media Server) under the Media Gateways and Media
Servers heading Select the appropriate document (e.g., Installing the Avaya S8700 Media Server with Avaya G600 Media Gateway)
For Communication Manager 2.0, there is no software shipped on the hard disk drive for the S8500, S8700, and HP ProLiant Media Servers. The hard drive must be formatted and populated with software by using the software CD that ships with the Media Servers.
For Communication Manager 2.0, the S8300 Media Server still ships with Communication Manager on the hard disk drive. The Communication Manager software contained on the hard disk drive that is shipped with the S8300 media server might be out-of-date. During initial installation the software release should be checked and verified against the releases given below. If the software release on the hard drive does not match the release launched, the Communication Manager software CD-ROM should be used to upgrade the software during initial installation. Once the Communication Manager software is at the appropriate launched release, the latest software update should be applied.
Upgrades to Communication Manager 2.0
From December 8th 2003 until February 2004 the upgrade/installation/migration documentation that initially ships with the media servers is out-of-date. Starting in February, the documentation shipping with the servers will be up-to-date. Therefore, prior to February 2004 the up-to-date documentation will be on support.avaya.com and should be used/referenced at the following navigation path:Enter http://support.avaya.com in a web browser.Click on Product DocumentationClick on Communication Systems in the list of links on the leftClick on 2.0 under the media server of choice (e.g., S8700 Media Server) under the Media Gateways and Media

Software Updates (super-patches) for Communication Manager 2.0
For Communication Manager 2.0, Software Updates are handled via Product Correction Notices (PCN). Product Correction Notices contain important information about the software update and allow for automated notification via e-mail when new Software Updates become available. See section Registering For Automatic E-mailNotification of Software & Firmware Updates for instructions on how to register for automatic e-mail notification of new Product Correction Notices.
Prior to Communication Manager 2.0, the application of software updates is service disrupting. The application of software updates on Communication Manager 2.0 is call preserving unless noted otherwise in the PCN. This means that calls remain stable while a 2.0 software update is being applied. Additionally, new calls can be initiated and signaling on existing calls is processed while a 2.0 software update is being applied.
Please refer to section Software Update (formerly super-patch) Compatibility for additional information on software updates.
Media Module 711 Firmware and Hardware Dependencies for 2.0
There are currently 3 distinct Media Module 711 (MM711) firmware vintages for 3 distinct MM711 hardware vintage ranges. These distinct firmware vintage ranges are incompatible with any other MM711 hardware vintages than the ones for which they were intended.
Media Module 711 (MM711) hardware vintages 3 through 6 require firmware vintages lower than V19 (V17 currently preferred), and any vintages greater than V19 are not compatible. MM711 hardware vintage 7 requires firmware vintages greater than V20, but less than V57 (V21 currently preferred), and any other vintages are not compatible. MM711 hardware vintage 20 and above requires firmware vintages V57 and greater (V57 currently preferred), and any other vintages are not compatible.
Releases of AIW earlier than 1.3-8 do not accurately report the available version of firmware for an MM711 hardware vintage 7 media module. Also, the installation of a hardware vintage 7 media module via AIW fails. The version of AIW that ships with Communication Manager 2.0 does not experience this issue, but if needed, version 1.3-8 or later of AIW can be downloaded from http://support.avaya.com/avayaiw/ to allow proper installation of hardware vintage 7 media modules.
The firmware filename structure for the MM711 has changed to show hardware designation since there is now a hardware dependency on the firmware. For example, the filename MM711h7v21.fdl denotes the hardware vintage via h7 and v21 maps to the firmware vintage.
Media Gateway Firmware, LSP Software, and Primary Server Software Compatibility for 2.0
The G350 Media Gateway will only function with a primary media server running Communication Manager 2.0.

A primary media server (e.g., S8300 or S8700) running Communication Manager 1.3 supports a G700 Media Gateway that is running the 2.0 version of gateway firmware and a hybrid configuration where one or more of the G700 Media Gateways in the configuration is running the 1.3 version of gateway firmware and one or more is running the 2.0 version of gateway firmware. A primary media server running Communication Manager 1.3 supports a configuration that consists of LSPs running a combination of Communication Manager 1.3 and 2.0.
A primary media server running Communication Manager 2.0 only supports media gateways and LSPs running 2.0 firmware and 2.0 Communication Manager software respectively.
A G700 Media Gateway running version 1.3 gateway firmware (MGP) supports Media Modules running version 2.0 firmware and a hybrid configuration that consists of Media Modules running a combination of 1.3 and 2.0 firmware (MM).
A G700 Media Gateway running version 2.0 gateway firmware (MGP) shall support Media Modules running version 1.3 and a hybrid configuration that consists of any combination of Media Modules running 1.3 and 2.0 version firmware (MM).
A LSP running Communication Manager 1.3 supports (controls) G700 Media Gateways that are also running the 1.3 version of gateway firmware only. Likewise, a LSP running Communication Manager 2.0 supports G700 Media Gateways running the 2.0 version of gateway firmware only.
Note: The order of upgrading a distributed configuration with a primary server, media gateways, and LSPs changed from Communication Manager 1.3 to 2.0. Please be aware of the following revised upgrade sequence:
1. G700 Media Gateways (MGP and Media Modules). The order in which the Media Gateway (MGP) and Media Modules (MM) are upgraded does not matter.

2. LSPs3. Primary Media Servers
This means that if a LSP is to be upgraded to a 2.0 version of CM software, all G700 Media Gateways that are supported by that LSP must be running a 2.0 version of media gateway firmware.
This means that before a primary server is upgraded to a 2.0 version of CM software, all media gateways, media gateway media modules, and LSPs in the configuration must be upgraded to 2.0 before an upgrade of the primary server is attempted.
IP Interface Circuit Pack Firmware Available on the Communication Manager 2.0 Software CD
The latest IP Interface circuit pack firmware available at the time Communication Manager 2.0 launched is now obtainable on the Communication Manager 2.0 software CD that ships with the media server. This includes firmware for the following IP Interface circuit packs: TN799DP TN2302AP for hardware vintages 3 and 11 TN2312AP and BP TN2501AP
Avaya Installation Wizard (AIW)
The Avaya Installation Wizard (AIW) is recommended for all new media server installations involving Communication Manager 2.0. AIW should be updated to the latest version on the support web pages to properly support Communication Manager 2.0:http://support.avaya.com/avayaiw/
Circuit Pack Firmware Compatibility
For firmware downloadable (programmable) circuit packs, the latest firmware available for the circuit pack should be used regardless of the release of Communication Manager software being used. However, it is not necessary to update firmware that is working well and the customer is happy with, unless there is a compelling reason to do so.
Whenever firmware is updated, the readme file should be checked for specific Communication Manager compatibility issues. Avaya’s support web site should be checked for the latest firmware available for a given circuit pack.

Media Gateway Firmware Compatibility
For firmware downloadable Media Gateway Media Modules, the Software/Firmware Compatibility Matrix contained in this document lists the firmware that was available for the media module and gateway at the time a specific Communication Manager software release was launched. In most cases the latest media module and gateway firmware should work with older releases of Communication Manager software, but since very limited testing is done with previous Communication Manager software releases this cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, it is safest to use the Software/Firmware Compatibility Matrix contained in this document to determine the appropriate firmware for a specific Communication Manager software release.
Whenever firmware is updated, the readme file should be checked for specific Communication Manager compatibility issues. Avaya’s support web site should be checked for the latest firmware available for a given media module. Be aware that the firmware on the CD-ROM might be out of date and should be updated during installation. The latest G350 & G700 Media Gateway firmware, readme files, and instructions for installing media gateway firmware are found at the link given below:

Endpoint Firmware Compatibility
For firmware downloadable endpoints, the latest firmware available for the specific endpoint should be used regardless of the release of Communication Manager software being used. However, it is not necessary or desirable to update firmware that is working well and the customer is happy with, unless the Communication Manager software is upgraded. Whenever firmware is updated, the readme file should be checked for specific Communication Manager compatibility issues. Avaya’s support web site should be checked for the latest firmware available for a given endpoint. The latest endpoint firmware is found at the links given below:
