Hardware Description and Reference for Avaya ... - Avaya Support

Printers
Avaya S8300 Media Server
The S8300 Media Server is connected to the customer's LAN. Therefore, you can send print
requests to any printer within the LAN and IP region of the S8300 Media Server.
A system printer is supported when a terminal server is used. In this case, the printer is
connected to an adjunct PC such as a CDR system, CMS, or Call Accounting System.
A journal printer is supported when a terminal server is used.
Survivability
S8300 Media Server in an LSP configuration
An S8300 Media Server in a Local Survivable Processor (LSP) configuration uses the S8300
hardware component and a software license to activate a standby feature. This software allows
the LSP with a G700/G350/G250 Media Gateway to be a survivable call-processing server for
remote locations and branch locations.
The branch locations can have the following Media Servers as their primary controller:
● S8300
● S8500
● S8710
● S8720
An S8300 Media Server and the LSP cannot reside in the same G700/G350/G250 Media
Gateway.
If for any reason communication between a G700/G350/G250 Media Gateway and its primary
controller stops, an LSP activates. This "fail-over" from the primary controller to the LSP is an
automatic process without human intervention. The LSP assumes control of any IP telephone
provided that telephone has the LSP in its list of controllers.
The LSP can continue to support calls as the primary controller for 30 days. The LSP is in
"license-error" mode when it is supporting calls. After 30 days in license-error mode, the LSP
administration is blocked and display telephones show License Error in their display windows.
However, even after 30 days, telephone operations can continue.
Automatic fallback to primary controller
Based on administration of Communication Manager, the G700/G350/G250 LSP can return
control of the G700/G350/G250 Media Gateway to the primary controller (server) automatically
when the connection is restored between the media gateway and the primary controller. By
returning control of the media gateways to the primary controller automatically, Communication
