Managing the
Accounting Service
and the
Authentication and
Directory Service
This section describes maintenance tasks for the following VCX services
(sometimes referred to as back-end servers):
■Accounting service
■Authentication and Directory service
The location of each service depends on your VCX configuration.
■The Accounting service always runs on the server hosting the IP
Telephony server.
■The Authentication and Directory service can run on either the IP
Telephony server or, in some multi-site configurations, on the
Authentication and Directory server.
To determine where (the IP address) a service is running, enter the
following command (logged in as root) on the server hosting the primary
call processor:
vcx-config-services --show
This command returns a multi-page display that shows your VCX system
configuration, including lines similar to the following:
---------Displaying Accounting Service ---------
Local IP Address : 10.230.63.6
For information on configuring Accounting Service groups, see
Chapter 2.
