migrating from a Siemens 9005 to a Nortel Option 61C?

[Homerscooby]

Does anyone know where I can find details or scopes of work migrating from a Siemens 9005 to a Nortel Option 61C?

I want to insure I have all the little details and if anyone has ever done this I would appreciate your feedback.

Check the Nortel Forum, I responed there.I should have said also there that Nortel is not user friendly, for the most part no typing ? to get your options. You will need to know what LOAD to go to to make your changes if you don't have TM. TM is a GUI interface that you make changes on your PC then it goes into the switch and does them for you.

The migration steps should be fairly generic since you are going from one OEM to one that is totally different. The biggest problem you will likely face is knowing what is in the 9005 as of now. Get a PC/Laptop/Printer attached to the 9005, go to CNFG and list out everything in your system so you know what's there now. That will eliminate any confustion when they start yanking out jumpers, cables and the like. You need to have a starting point to be able to re-deploy the right phone numbers to the right desks. Unless you are adopting a new numbering plan then it won't make much difference.
