Replacing the S8500 dual network interface
This section describes the steps required to replace an existing dual network interface card
(NIC) on the S8500 and S8500B Media Servers. The control network traffic from the server out
to the dedicated customer LAN travels through the NIC.
Note:
Note: This procedure applies to both S8500B and S8500 media servers. The section
about Installing the new network interface cardhas different procedures for
S8500B and S8500.
The components of this procedure include:
●Backing up the media server
●Powering down the media server
●Removing the cover of the media server
●Removing the fan unit
●Removing the old network interface card
●Installing the new network interface card
●Replacing the fan unit
●Replacing the cover and cabling
●Powering up the server
●Checking LED activity on the dual network interface card
●Confirming original Ethernet configuration
!CAUTION:
CAUTION: Wear an antistatic wrist ground strap whenever handling the media server or its
components. Connect the strap to an approved ground, such as an unpainted
metal surface.
Backing up the media server
Backup the media server before you power it down. To backup the media server complete the
following steps:
1. Connect the services laptop to the port labeled 2 (Eth 1) on the back of the media server
using the crossover cable.
2. Open a browser window on the laptop.

5. Disconnect the modem from the RS-232 port on the RSA.
6. Disconnect and label the LAN connection (if used) from the Ethernet port on the RSA.
7. Pull the server forward so that the server rails expand and the retaining clips on the rails
click into place.
8. Unplug and label the cable from the Ethernet port labeled LINK A on the dual NIC.
Removing the cover of the media server
!CAUTION:
CAUTION: Remove all power from the media server before starting this procedure.
To remove the cover of the media server:
1. Loosen the two captive screws on the back of the media server (see Figure 3: Locating the
server cover’s captive screws on page 5.
2. Slide the server cover back from the front panel until the cover’s tabs are released from the
top slot of the front panel.
3. Lift the cover straight up and move it away from the server as shown in Figure 3: Locating
the server cover’s captive screws on page 5.

Removing the fan unit
To remove the fan unit from the media server:
1. Locate the slot labeled PCI-2 on the left hand side of the back of the server under the fan
unit.
2. Remove the two screws holding the fan unit. You do not need to unplug the fan unit.

Removing the old network interface card
To remove the old NIC:
1. Completely unscrew the captive screw on the left hand side of the PCI-2 slot.
The captive screw is now loose so that you can flip it up. You will need this space to
maneuver the old NIC out of its slot.
2. Firmly pull the card out of its slot.
Installing the new network interface card
Depending on the S8500 server model, use one of the following procedures:
●Installing the new network interface card in the S8500B media server
●Installing the new network interface card in the S8500 Media Server
Installing the new network interface card in the S8500B media server
Note:
Note: The procedure is for S8500B.
Note:
Note: Wear an antistatic wrist ground strap whenever handling the media server or its
components. Connect the strap to an approved ground, such as an unpainted
metal surface. See the job aid titled Approved Grounds for more information.
To install the network interface card (NIC):
1. Carefully grasp the new NIC by the top edge or upper corners and align it with the PCI-2
expansion slot on the motherboard. (The SAMP is connected on the other side of this
connector.) Press the NIC firmly into the expansion slot. See Figure 4: Inserting the
network interface card on page 7.

Figure 4: Inserting the network interface card
!CAUTION:
CAUTION: Be sure that the NIC is completely and correctly seated in the PCI-2 expansion
slot of the Avaya S8500B Media Server. Incomplete insertion might cause
damage to the system board or the NIC.
2. Position the faceplate so that it fits in the PCI-2 slot using the captive screw to hold it in
place.
3. Tighten the captive screw.
