2. Using Manager, select File > Advanced > Recreate IP Office SD Card.

3. Select Avaya Branch Gateway.

Creating a configuration file

About this task

Manager can be used to create a new configuration file without connecting to a B5800 Branch

Gateway system. This allows the creation of a configuration prior to installing the system. The

configuration file can be loaded on the System SD card before the card is installed. The

configuration file specifies the system's location, trunk cards, control unit, and expansion

modules.

• The configuration created must match the physical equipment in the B5800 Branch

Gateway system for which the configuration will be loaded. If they do not match, the

system may reset and experience other problems.

• The configuration creation tool includes all control units, external expansion modules and

trunk cards supported by B5800 Branch Gateway. It is your responsibility to confirm the

B5800 Branch Gateway equipment that is supported in your location.

Procedure

1. Start Manager with no configuration loaded into Manager.

2. Click on Create an Offline Configuration in the simplified view.

3. Select the type of configuration that you want to create.

4. When completed, click OK.

Manager will create and load the configuration.

5. Edit the configuration to match the customer requirements.

This can include importing information from prepared CSV files.

Note:

For information about CSV files, see the Help available in the Manager

application. From Manager, select Help > Contents. In the Manager Help
