Upgrading System Software to Version 3.0
This section describes required network conditions, working assumptions, and the processes
and procedures to follow when upgrading a Mitel 5000 platform.
Network Environment Requirements
For the most efficient network connectivity and system performance, the Mitel 5000 platform
must operate in a suitable network environment. Detailed characteristics appear in VoIP Data
Network Requirements, part number 835.2885.
If upgrading an Mitel CS-5600, the Base Server and the PS-1:
• Must be connected to the same local area network (LAN).
• Must be on the same subnet.
• Must be on the same Virtual LAN (VLAN).
• Must be connected on a 100 Mbps full-duplex switch.
• Cannot have a Network Address Translation (NAT) device between them.
If a Base Server—as well as a PS-1—resides behind a firewall and you want to make changes
to the system from a remote location, make sure the system is accessible. To gain access to DB
Programming, IP endpoints, Secure Shell (SSH), Diagnostics Monitor, or Administrative Web
Sessions, the network administrator must open a specific range of User Datagram Protocol
(UDP) ports on the firewall.
Table 5-21 shows the UDP port ranges applicable to v3.0. These port assignments apply to the
Processor Module (PM-1) and the Processor Expansion Card (PEC-1) in the Mitel CS-5200/
5400/5600 Base Server. These port assignments do not apply to the Processing Server (PS-1).
All DB Programming occurs through the Base Server, unless the site is installing a PS-1.
The Mitel 5000 platform does not support IP networking through a Network Address Translation
(NAT) device.
