Początkowa konfiguracja
Initial Configuration The Initial Configuration Utility in Server Edition Manager is used for the final stage of commissioning the Server The Utility provides options to change settings such as the System Name and Locale, but also to retain any available configuration data (specially used for migration IP Office 500v2 systems to Server Edition expansion systems)
Step 1: Install & launch Manager From the Web Management page, click on “IP Office Manager“. This will start a Java applet that will check if a current version of Manager is installed. If not, it will provide a link to download Manager (IP Office Admin, Windows application) from the server. Install & Launch Manager https://<Primary Server Address>:7070 IP Office Manager
Step 2: Set System Name & Locale Manager will now start the Initial Configuration utility. Select a System Name and the correct locale for your region, and save the settings. The server will reboot and is now ready for further configuration. Name Primary Server Review IP Address DHCP Mode Secondary Server if available Save Settings
Step 3: Select Configuration from Manager After rebooting the server, lauch Manager again from the Web Manager page. Manager will now start in the Server Edition Solution View, from which Configuration can be started. IPO Manager Configuration This menu includes the system inventory of the servers, links for launching various functions and a summary table of the servers and the links between the servers. Open Configuration
Optional: How to Change IP Address IP Address used as a Call Server Require Reboot Server System LAN1 LAN Settings IP Address Select Server IP Address Mask As DHCP Server Setup DHCP Pool
Optional: How to Setup DHCP Server Setup Pool with Start IP, Mask, Gateway & Size By Default DHCP Server is disabled Server System LAN1 DHCP Pools Avaya IP Phones Only Select Server Double Click Start Address Router Pool Size
EXERCISE – Complete Initial Configuration Follow the process from the previous slides to complete Primary Server‘s initial configuration Name Locale IP Address / Mask / Gateway DHCP Mode
Aktywacja Trybu Demo - Demo Anywhere & SEES
R9.0 Demo Software Highlights IPO Anywhere now integrated with standard IPO software build. R&D synergy for testing/delivery Leverage IPO software enhancements in IPO demo software (Service packs, dot releases, etc..). IPO Anywhere and Server Edition Evaluation Software (SEES) integration. IPO Anywhere can now be set-up: Standalone demo (as with IPOA today) Multi-node Server Edition demo (as with SEES today)

Step 1: Install IPO Server Edition Install .ISO image file of Server Edition R9 as normal install Login to Server using the Web-Manager page: https://<server IP address>:7070 Login: Administrator Password: Administrator Note that you may need to add a security exception in your browser to be able to access this page (certificate verification warning) Web Login Address
Step 2: Complete Ignition Process Follow through Ignition Process as Primary Server Login to Web-manager once Ignition process is complete https://<server IP address>:7070 System ID Administrator Administrator Save Configuration
Step 3: Uninstall IP Office Remove “IP Office“ Service Web Manager Platform Updates IP Office Updates Uninstall IP Office
Step 4: Install IP Office Demo Install “IP Office Demo“ Service Web Manager Platform Updates IP Office Demo Updates Install IP Office Demo
Step 5: Start IP Office Demo Start IPO Demo services Web Manager Platform Updates IP Office Demo System Start IPO Service
Step 6: Complete Initial Configuration Name Primary Server Review IP Address DHCP Mode Secondary Server if available
Note The IPO Software is now in Server Edition Evaluation Mode and will allow secondary/expansion nodes to be configured using the standard IP Office tools to demonstrate Server Edition. Alternatively, if you want to have the Standalone demo mode (as with IPO Anywhere R8.1) then you need to install the Demo Default Config (as outlined on the next slide). Note: This is a one way option and once you have installed the Demo Default Config you cannot revert to the Server Edition Evaluation Mode
Step 6: Setup IPO Demo Anywhere Standalone Demo mode, ideal for UC demos Web Manager Platform Updates IP Office Demo Updates Install “IP Office Demo Default Config”
Server Edition Manager - Przegląd
Installing Manager As mentioned during the Server Edition Installation, Manager can be downloaded from Web Control. This admin package is Admin Lite; a smaller size (~90MB) with a few restrictions* The full Manager, including all files, can be downloaded & installed from the IP Office Admin DVD, available from support.avaya.com *No recreate SD Card, no phone, IP DECT binaries or EVM clips (i.e. no system files upgrade support)
Manager Network View Network View is the landing page on start up High level inventory and management status Links to modify configuration, messaging, resilience Add/remove devices from solution Green = device online Orange = offline, can edit Red = offline, cannot edit Server Status
Manager Configuration Navigation pane Expand Server to Manage Selecting “Solution“ or a specific server in the network, and then “Configuration“ will open the Navigation pane for configuration An Inventory of the selected item will also be shown
Config files Primary Server Secondary Server .cfg .cfg Expansion System 1 .cfg Expansion System 30 .cfg Each of the servers in the network will have all of its configuration settings stored in an individual .cfg file Manager will load the .cfg file from all servers automatically The Primary Server keeps a copy of all .cfg files in the network
Starting Manager Check Server to be managed If launched from Web Manager, IPO Manager will automatically start in Server Edition Mode If launched directly from Windows Program files, Manager will show all the systems it finds on the network. Select the Primary Server, and make sure that “Open with Server Edition Manager“ is selected
Loading config files Default user name/password used for loading the config files: Login: Administrator Password: Administrator If a config file can not be loaded from a server directly (e.g. because the server is not reachable on the network), Manager will offer the option to load the offline copy stored on the Primary Server instead
Changing the configuration Solution level settings Individual system configuration settings (orange = offline) From Manager, the config file of each system can be selected to make changes to that system By default, some settings can only be changed at the Solution level. Manager will replicate these records and apply the changes to the individual system configuration files automatically
Solution Level Record consolidation Settings that (by default) can only be changed at the Solution level are: Short Codes, except for „Dial“ type ShortCodes Incoming Call Routes Time Profiles Account Codes User Rights
Saving Configuration changes From Manager, Select Save Configuration file Save Changes Manager will apply the changes to system config files of the systems affected by the changes. If possible, “Merge“ will be offered as the change mode Merge to Save w/o Reboot. Reboot to Save & Restart.
Understanding config storage & change mode The current active config file is stored in RAM A copy of the config file is stored in non-volatile memory A reboot will restart the IP Office and copy the .cfg file from non- volatile memory into RAM, merge will only apply changes without restarting. Note that some changes cannot be merged. Reboot options: Immediate (lose current calls) When Free – wait for no active calls, option to not allow any new calls Timed – like When Free, but starting at a specific time
Manager Interface Overview receive config send config
Security Settings – Manager Users & Passwords thru IPO Manager Manager File Advanced Security Settings Standard login: Administrator/Administrator or security / securitypwd Several levels of access to manage the system configuration Users & passwords are stored on system, separate from config Can be changed using “security settings“ in Manager Also allows setting password complexity and aging rules
