Defining the Web Conferencing Server Hostname Information

If you want users to be able to access the Web Conferencing server by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server, or if you plan to configure SSL for this server, do the following procedure.

Note If the web server is not in a Domain Name Server (DNS), do not perform this procedure.

To Define the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Server Hostname Information

Step 1 Open your web browser, and enter the URL of your web server.

For internal web servers, the default URL structure is http://<server>, where <server> is the name of your internal web server.

For external web servers, the default URL structure is http://<server>/mpweb/admin/, where <server> is the name of your external web server.

Step 2 When the Web Conferencing home page appears, sign in by using your System Manager-level user ID and password, then click Sign In Now.

If you are on an internal web server, the Welcome page appears with your name displayed at the top. To access the administrative page, click Admin.

If you are on an external web server, the administrative page appears.

Step 3 From the Admin page, click Web Server.

Step 4 From the View section of the page, click the name of the web server that you want to configure.

Information about this web server populates the Edit section of the page.

Step 5 For Hostname [Home Page], enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the primary network interface on the web server, for example, hostname.domain.com. Note the following considerations:

To use SSL, you must enter the FQDN.
