How to get Help
This section explains how to get help for Nortel products and services.
Getting Help from the Nortel Web site
The best way to get technical support for Nortel products is from the Nortel Technical
Support Web site:
http://www.nortel.com/support
This site provides quick access to software, documentation, bulletins, and tools to
address issues with Nortel products. More specifically, the site enables you to:
download software, documentation, and product bulletins
search the Technical Support Web site and the Nortel Knowledge Base for
answers to technical issues
sign up for automatic notification of new software and documentation for Nortel
equipment
open and manage technical support cases
Getting Help over the phone from a Nortel Solutions Center
If you don’t find the information you require on the Nortel Technical Support Web site,
and have a Nortel support contract, you can also get help over the phone from a Nortel
Solutions Center.
In North America, call 1-800-4NORTEL (1-800-466-7865).
Outside North America, go to the following Web site to obtain the phone number for
your region:

Getting Help from a specialist by using an Express Routing Code
To access some Nortel Technical Solutions Centers, you can use an Express Routing
Code (ERC) to quickly route your call to a specialist in your Nortel product or service. To
locate the ERC for your product or service, go to:
http://www.nortel.com/erc
Getting Help through a Nortel distributor or reseller
If you purchased a service contract for your Nortel product from a distributor or
authorized reseller, contact the technical support staff for that distributor or reseller.
