Ins t a l l a t i o n
Port co nf i g u r a t i o n
When configuring the ‘Gateway External Port’ and the Media Broker ‘Public RTP Port(s)’, administrators
should give consideration the types of firewall that may exist in front of the mobile video client user and
whether or not the chosen ports will be open through those firewalls.

Up gr a d e
Versions of Avaya Mobile Video prior to 3.4.0 supported installation on Red Hat 6; Avaya Mobile Video
3.4.0 only supports installation on Red Hat 7.4 or later Red Hat 7 Release. Upgrading from version 3.2.X to
3.4.0 therefore requires a specific update path due to the change in the operating system version.

Due to the complexity in the operating system update, an in-place upgrade is not possible. The upgrade
path for 3.2.X to 3.4.0 is:

1. Export configuration from the 3.2.X installation

2. Create new Red Hat 7.4 Virtual Machines to host the new installation

3. Install the Avaya Mobile Video 3.4.0 Gateway and Media Broker software on the new virtual
machines

4. Import the exported 3.2.X configuration into the new virtual machines

This process is detailed in the Upgrading_AvayaMobileVideo_3.2.X_to_3.4.0 document available on


support.avaya.com.

Pos t- ins t a l l a t i o n con f i g u r a t i o n


 Install the AvayaMobileVideo3.4.1_GW001 patch that is available for download from MPL:
http://qtcfs0n6.us1.avaya.com/mpl/core_menu.cfm

 Along with the Avaya Mobile Video install documentation, consult the Avaya Mobile Video Planning
and Security document for some post installation steps required to fully secure the installation.

 Users who have upgraded from an older AMV 3.2.x version will need to re-compile all client apps
using the new 3.4.0 SDKs, which are available for download from DevConnect.
