The following programs support effective use of the S8300 Media Server and G700 Media Gateway:
- Avaya Installation Wizard (AIW): Used as a tool to assist you in the installation process. The Avaya Installation Wizard is designed to get you up and running in a basic installation as quickly as possible. It is not designed for customization in the installation procedures. For customized procedures, you need to use the information found in Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G700 Media Gateway Controlled by an Avaya S8300 Media Server or an Avaya S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100.

Contact your Avaya representative for details about this extensive support system.
- Avaya Site Administration used for telephony administration. Avaya Site Administration must be run on a compatible Microsoft Windows operating system. Versions currently supported include Windows 98, NT 4.0, and Windows 2000. Typically one licensed copy is made available for every S8300 Media Server installation.
- Avaya Device Manager: (formerly the Embedded Web Manager), provides a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) to assist with ongoing Media Gateway Processor and Layer 2 Switching Processor administration. See the AvayaTM P330 Manager User Guide for complete information.
- File Transfer Protocol (FTP) program: used behind the scenes in the Web interface for uploading or downloading of data files, announcements, license files, or software.
- NetSwitcher program: Avaya Services technicians use this internally available program to configure different network profiles so they can easily connect to a number of different systems. See General settings for details.
- Terminal emulation program: used to configure IP addresses for new G700 Media Gateway processors. Typically the Microsoft Windows� HyperTerminal program is used.
- System Access Terminal (SAT) program: uses a Command Line Interface (CLI) interface to administer telephony features. SAT is available through a telnet session or Avaya Site Administration.
- Telecommunications network (telnet) program: provides a command-line interface (CLI) for running server platform commands and applications such as FTP or TFTP and SAT. Refer to relevant published documentation for details on using a particular telnet program.
- Secure shell interface: A secure shell (SSH) remote interface utility can be used as an alternative to telnet. SSH commands and passwords are encrypted, and both ends of the client/server connection are authenticated through a digital certificate. The SSH suite includes a secure copy (SCP) program that can be used as an alternative to FTP. The SSH and SCP utilities provide greater security than FTP and telnet and should be used if available.
- Avaya VoIP Monitoring Manager: used to monitor network quality of service for Avaya IP endpoints using a graphical user interface. Currently it runs only on Windows 2000 systems. Avaya VoIP Monitoring Manager may be downloadable from some S8300 Media Servers. It is available as part of Avay VisAbility Management Suite.
