Appendix D: Install the Avaya TFTP Server
This appendix describes the procedure to install and configure the Avaya TFTP server on a
technician’s laptop or other computer. You can use the capabilities of the TFTP server as the
"source" to install software on the S8300 and install firmware on the G700 or G350 Media
Gateways and the gateway media modules.
To install the Avaya TFTP server
Create a tftpboot directory
1. Skip this step if you intend to use your CD-ROM drive as the source location for the system
software files. Otherwise, on the hard drive of your laptop or the customer’s PC, create a
directory into which you will load the system software. It is recommended that you create a
directory called C:\tftpboot.
Download the TFTP software
The TFTP server software may be available on the Unity CD in \pc-software\TFTP. If so, skip to
Step 8.
2. Connect to the LAN using a browser on your laptop or the customer’s PC and access the
Avaya Support website on the Internet:
http://www.avaya.com/support
3. At the Avaya support site, select the following sequence of menu options:
4. >Double-click on one of the links listed with "TFTP Server"; for example,
4630/4630SW IP Telephone R 2.0.1 and TFTP Server.
5. Scroll to bottom of page to find the TFTP Server Application file, iptel_avaya_tftp.exe.
6. Double-click on the filename and download the file to your laptop or the customer PC that
will serve as the TFTP server. The directory that you download this file to can be a
temporary directory — it is not the directory that the TFTP server will be installed in.
Remember this directory.
7. You may also wish to download and view or print the file iptel.pdf, which provides
instructions on installing the iptel_avaya_tftp.exe for Windows servers.
